ACCOMMODATION:
Originally built in the 1870s as the Estate Manager’s house, it passed through various owners before becoming a hotel in 1981.
All but two of the twelve comfortable en-suite bedrooms have spectacular views across the sound of Raasay to the Cuillin on Skye. The café and restaurant, lounge and garden are all open to non-residents and all offer dramatic sea views. We can welcome up to 24 guests in the hotel. For larger groups we can arrange extra accommodation elsewhere on the island.

Raasay is abundant with wildlife. From sea and golden eagles, herons and cormorants, minke whales, basking sharks, dolphins & porpoises, to deer, voles, otters and seals. Some are unique to Raasay, whilst some use Raasay as a stopover on their migration routes.
