Excellent breakfast. In hotel, restaurant and bar, were so welcomed after a day on the road. The staff could not have been friendlier and accommodated our request for a view room. Closeness to Eilean Donan Castle and Isle of Skye could not be better.
With traditional rooms and a cozy bar, this hotel offers free parking and fine dining. The Kyle Hotel is located in the Kyle of Lochalsh, the gateway to the Isle of Skye.
Offering a garden, Strathspey offers accommodations in Kyleakin. Housed in a building dating from 1970, this vacation home is 1.8 miles from Kyle of Lochalsh and 10 miles from Eilean Donan Castle.

Renovated older property. Very comfortable. Full kitchen including a dishwasher. We came back again after staying here two days previously.

If you're a fan of The Wicker Man then you'll know about this place. It's very small, very quiet, and very remote but it's beautiful, and Calum's Seal Trips on the boat is a great way to spend an hour. We even saw a humpback whale as well as a low flying Airbus A400M Atlas on during our stay.

We went to Plockton in the year 2000 and really like it so we made a diversion of the NC500 to go back.
But we had a problem finding places to eat all the hotels and resturants were fully booked. Luckily there was a fish and chip shop open, the next night we had dinner at lunch time so I sugrgest you pre book before you go

Small little and nice town but with nothing to do.
Small little and nice town but with nothing to do.
It is remorse from everything, the closest gas station is 8 mile away, there are only two restaurants serving only dinner, nothing for lunch except fish&chips from a fish&chips bar, youbhave to book table god knows when before the dining time in order to get a table...The town has no food store, you can not buy a bottle of watter anywhere.
BOTTOM LINE: STAY AWAY FROM THIS TOWN!
(Please be advised: I traveled alone, had i've been with a family for sure we would remain without dinner)

Plockton is attractive and charming, but difficult to get in and out of due to the number of single-track roads. Its popularity is its downfall - it ends up becoming crowded and awkward to get around. In addition, there is very little to do here unless you're a boater. If you are looking for a genuine get-away, chances are you won't be getting away if you come here.

It’s a beautiful little place with two good pubs serving real ales and excellent food. Well worth spending a couple of nights.
The surrounding area is very picturesque.
We’ll placed for walkers.
The weather is typically Scottish!

I only stayed for one night so I didn't get to enjoy any of the local tourist attractions. I went there because I'm a fan of the cult horror film The Wicker Man. Plockton features very briefly in the early scenes and is used as the harbour for Summerisle.
