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.

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!

The cabins were small but very cosy, lovely towels for shower and very nice toiletries, bed was very comfortable. There was a great choice at breakfast, we ate twice in the evening at the hotel and like breakfast it was all freshly cooked and very generous portions, food was first class! Staff were attentive and very friendly! We loved our stay and would love to stay again!

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.

Gazing the stars from Bracken Hide Portree
It was fantastic from start to end of our 3 night stay. Love the location, the style, the warmth of every staff member we met, including the general workers, the reception and the ladies at the restaurant. The view of Portree from the hut was amazing especially in the morning. Love the butter they serve at breakfast too!! Wishing upon the many stars at night that we can come back to Bracken Hide again!!

Beautiful views, fantastic restaurant. While the walk up the hill to our cabin was a bit much, the view, the quiet, and the uniqueness of it all more than made up for it. We had a fantastic time.
