So let me start with what they never mentioned in their listings or ads, all of these pods, and I would describe them as luxury pods, are located a couple hundred yards from the main building up a hill that you must travel through gravel to get to. We arrived after dark when a porter is not normally available to transport your bags up to your pod. It is very poorly lit around the hotel entrance and it is not immediately known if you’re parking in the correct area and where to go and what to do because the signage is so bad. We managed to get through it and the pod was very nice but can you imagine if someone has special needs or is elderly? There is no way they could climb this hill and pull their bags in the dark over gravel. Definitely not worth the price tag in my opinion!!

Hideaway on an Isle of Skye Hillside

Really unique accommodations. Very quiet and private "hides" or huts tucked on a hill overlooking beautiful Skye landscapes. A central building with an awesome dining room, bar and game/relaxing area is steps away. Check-in was fast and easy with friendly and professional staff. Only meals we ate here was breakfast and it was great. Service was great. Coffee was great. Poached eggs on avocado toast was great. Fruit and croissants were also great. Just a 10-12 minute stroll to Portree Harbor. Highly recommend.

Hotel was close enough to walk to the city but distant enough to where you could enjoy the peace. Staff was very nice and helpful with our stay. Breakfast was delicious and the staff was very friendly while they were attending to us. Would recommend to others to stay here.

I had an absolutely wonderful time here. The staff at the front desk was so helpful, and so quick to address any question or concern. My meals were excellent as was the service in the dining room and bar. The Sauna/cold plunge experience was exceptional and the coziness of my cabin cannot be paralleled. I cannot speak more highly of this experience, book it!

Amazing hotel with fantastic views across the Isle of Skye and the surrounding sea. Modern, very “Bind villain” vibe to the main building, all the guest rooms are individual pods in the surrounding grounds. These are quite small but well done and very cosy. The food in the hotel was excellent - we had breakfast twice and a festive dinner one night, all amazing. Probably the best hotel on Skye and well worth it. Oh and all the staff were super helpful and friendly, and the bar did great cocktails. We’ll definitely be back.

I could write 45 pages on why this property is the best experience I ever had. The little cottages are so luxurious, the view is spectacular, it’s so quiet and elegant. The food is AMAZING and I never say that about any restaurant ever. They had healthy and delicious options, everything is sustainably sourced, and the staff is SPECTACULAR. I did not want to leave. The main lodge and restaurant is so beautiful and so modern and spotlessly clean. They also have a sweat lodge and a cold plunge and the most amazing hot tub with a view of the Skye Harbor. Do not stay anywhere else in Skye or Portree. You MUST stay here. This is not just a beautiful place to rest your head or grab a gourmet bite to eat… This is a full on amazing EXPERIENCE. The Staff is the BEST And you will never want to leave this place. Being there is like getting a giant hug every single day. I cannot wait to go back!!!!!!!!! Five stars all the way!

A beautiful cabin on a hill..

We had a wonderful stay for a couple of nights at Bracken Hide. Everyone we met were super friendly and nice. We liked our cabin, nice view and cosy. We paid for the breakfast and it was great. They had a set menu to choose from. There were a lot of choices. We ordered the Scottish breakfast the first day and Eggs Benedict the next. Made to order cappuccino and hot chocolate. The area was a nice base to explore the rest of Isle of Skye. You have to walk a little bit to get to your cabin from the parking lot and from the restaurant but they offer to take your luggage in their golf cart. Will return again.
