Abbiamo avuto il piacere di soggiornare in questa fantastica struttura durante la visita all’isola di Skye lo scorso dicembre. Atmosfera magica, le stanzine disperse sul fianco di questa collina permettono di ammirare la mattina dei giochi di luce pazzeschi. Le stanze con riscaldamenti a pavimento sono dotate di ogni comfort, e vedere di fuori tutto imbiancato, con il caldo che si provava all’interno, rendeva tutto pazzesco. Posto unico.

“Great location with amazing views!”

I was nervous about staying here because of some of the reviews I'd read about the space, the walk up hill, etc. I'm so glad I did anyway! Yes, the walk up the hill to your cabin sucks.

I was nervous about staying here because of some of the reviews I'd read about the space, the walk up hill, etc. I'm so glad I did anyway! Yes, the walk up the hill to your cabin sucks. We were in tier 1 so the highest tier of all of them and the longest, steepest walk, but knowing that ahead of time prepared me mentally so it was tolerable. I personally thought the space inside the cabin was perfect for two people. Sure it was a little difficult to lay out suitcases to access our clothing, etc., but again, I knew that going into to it so I was prepared. A little rearranging of the furniture and we managed just fine. The bathroom was great and the bed comfortable. We had no trouble with wifi either. The views are unforgettable! The staff was kind and helpful; they even gave us a ride on one of their golf carts up to our cabin after a long day of walking and it was raining at the time. The restaurant was also fantastic. The food was delicious and the staff attentive. I had some of the best sleep of our trip because it was so quiet. It was also close enough to Portree that we didn't even use our rental car to get to town. It was about a mile walk to town center.

“Truly magical!!”

All I can say is I’m speechless. The fact this hotel only has a 3.5 is insane to me . My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon here and were in awe the first moment we saw the property.

All I can say is I’m speechless. The fact this hotel only has a 3.5 is insane to me . My husband and I celebrated our honeymoon here and were in awe the first moment we saw the property. If you are travelling with a partner or ever friends , i highly recommend staying here . The yurts themselves are yes a little small , but the perfect size and extremely cozy . When i woke up to the sunrise the first morning, i was in awe . It makes the isle of skye more beautiful if that was even possible . Not only are the views remarkable, but the service is unmatched with any place we stayed in Scotland . All the staff were incredibly accommodating, however , one person truly stood out . Paula , the restaurant manager was outstanding. No other way to put it . Our tour bus took longer than expected to arrive to the hotel , which worried us if we would make it to dinner . Both of us work in hospitality , so know how frustrating it can be when people arrive later than originally planned . However , Paula greeted us with open arms and made us feel so welcome . Not only was the food delicious(get the Guinea hen , it’s AMAZING ) but the level of professionalism and knowledge was incredible. We talked about it for days afterwards . Thank you so much Paula for looking after us and creating a memory which is so special to us both , we hope to both see you soon !

Stayed at The Bracken Hide in Portree and had a great experience. Staff were courteous, helpful, and made everything easy from arrival onward. We stayed in one of the “most accessible” cabins, which turned out to be a very good call given the cold weather and driving rain when we arrived. For that alone, I’d recommend thinking carefully before booking one of the cabins that requires a steeper climb—maybe fine in perfect weather, but less appealing when Skye decides to be Skye. Our cabin, or “hide,” was the perfect size for two. Very comfortable, quiet (except wind and rain - perfect for sleeping), clean, well laid out, and with a great view over Loch Portree. It seemed like most of the cabins likely offer a similar view, which is a big plus. The property also has a sauna and plunge pool, which was a nice surprise. Not the first thing you might think of for a Scottish trip, but definitely worth taking advantage of—so bring a swimsuit (or roll the dice, your call). The on-site restaurant is excellent and absolutely worth mentioning on its own—really strong food, a welcoming atmosphere, a great way to start your stay, and a major convenience after a day out exploring. The manager, Paula, stands out in particular—helpful, knowledgeable, and great with recommendations. Worth seeking her out during your stay. Comfortable stay, beautiful setting, good value and a smart base for exploring Skye. Highly recommend. Would stay again.
