Re: Accommodations in Shiel Bridge

I have used the Ratagan Youth Hostel a couple of times on the TGO Challenge. It's only a couple of kilometres from the bus stop at Shiel Bridge.

Re: Accommodations in Shiel Bridge

Thanks Brian.

Re: Accommodations in Shiel Bridge

Craig,
Another option is to seek accommodation in one of the villages on the A87 road West of Shiel Bridge.

Citylink coach service 915 departs Kyle of Lochalsh 08:35 & arrives Shiel Bridge 09:01 and
Citylink coach service 917 departs Kyle of Lochalsh 10:00 & arrives Shiel Bridge 10:30
I'd advise reserving seats beforehand if taking either of these options.

You could try Glomach House at Ault a Chruinn. Stayed there a couple of times.

Re: Accommodations in Shiel Bridge

Hi Craig
I would recommend the little campsite at Dornie. It's a bit basic but clean and with a lovely view of Eilean Donnan Castle. I have stayed there many times, on and off the challenge.
Walk along to the Dornie hotel and have a beer and some food with other challengers, there are usually a good few there.

Re: Accommodations in Shiel Bridge

Excellent campsite at Morvich, less than a mile from Kintail (a flat walk, mostly on side road road). Has good pitches, shower block, drying room, hikers' mess) Cost me £13.00 this year on my way through on CWT.

Re: Accommodations in Shiel Bridge

Thank everyone for your suggestions. After a few emails with the lovely owners and staff at the Kintail Lodge, they have found room for us ( we are paying of course! LOL) but they were very nice!
