Waterfront Bunkhouse

Scottish Hostels, Bunkhouses and Camping Barns

Waterfront Bunkhouse has been purpose-built to provide a high degree of style and comfort.

Twenty feet from the edge of Loch Harport, the accommodations command breathtaking views of the Cuillins.

The bunkhouse is an ideal base for hill walkers or sightseeing tourists, with spectacular scenery and abundant wildlife in the surrounding hills and glens.

The hostel sleeps 24 and consists of dormitory type rooms with 6 or 4 beds and one en-suite room.

Upstairs there is the kitchen and common room with a balcony overlooking the loch.

Full laundry facilities and showers are available (also open to visiting yachtsmen). The Waterfront Bunkhouse is about 40 mins from Broadford, 25 mins from Portree and next to The Old Inn, a traditional highland pub providing breakfast, lunch and dinner if required. Live traditional music every weekend and a welcoming open fire.
