"Had a wonderful and wonderfully unique stay at the Bracken Hide and I highly recommend it as an alternative to staying in Portree which we found cramped and a bit difficult to drive around.
The hotel “rooms” are really like mini Quonset huts / small living is what my partner exclaimed when we got into our “yurt” as he liked to call our accommodation. It is not a yurt to be clear.
Comfy bed, well places chargers, a place for our dirty hiking boots, wardrobes for each of us to store our items, a tiny bathroom (not for larger sized folks for sure!) - fluffy towels.
The views from the Bracken Hide are fantastic and we had an excellent dinner at Am Braigh the onsite restaurant - I had a scallop appetizer, a delicious filet of pollock with fresh clams and mussels. Three scoops of ice cream for dessert yum!
For our second night we picked up two wonderful wood fire pizzas from Pizza in the Skye which is just down the road (and not in downtown portree).
We did not take advantage of the plunge pool and sauna as we did not have room for swimsuits in our luggage but saw many people enjoying this amenity. I did buy an Isle of Skye candle from the lobby and my husband enjoyed a flight of highland whiskey - all without having to go in town and save our time for hiking Old Man of Storr and the Quiraing.
I highly recommend the Bracken Hide Hotel!"
