Seasonal Housekeeper - Bracken Hide Hotel
Location: The Bracken Hide Hotel in Portree, The Isle of Skye
Salary: An hourly rate of £13.85 (+ £1.00 as a housing allowance if you do not require subsidised staff accommodation) + tips & benefits
The Opportunity
Do the hills, the fresh air, and wild landscape make you feel alive? At The Bracken Hide, we believe luxury doesn't mean staid, it means embracing the elements. We're looking for Housekeepers who thrive outdoors, who's non-stop energy on uneven terrain, and that take pride in transforming hides nestled on rugged hillside into warm, spotless sanctuaries.
If you love being part of something wild and beautiful, if morning mist over Loch Portree and power showers don't scare you, but excite you, you might be exactly who we need.
- 45 luxury hides spread over approx 52 acres of wild hillside, overlooking Loch Portree & the Sound of Raasay.
- Hides are timber-framed with underfloor heating, Harris Tweed headboards, power showers, private decking, cosy retreats tucked into landscape.
- The property includes the Bracken: a dramatic central building housing reception, Am Braigh restaurant & whisky bar (the snug), sauna, plunge pool, Estonian saunas & wellness-style features.
- Paths connecting cabins are scenic but hilly; service areas are outdoors, so weather (rain, wind, boots, mud) comes with the territory. Vehicles are parked at car park; all hides are walking distance.
Key Responsibilities
- Deep-cleaning, turning over hides after check-out: making beds, changing linens, replenishing toiletries, ensuring power showers work, tidying decks.
- Carrying supplies up paths, sometimes uphill; moving between hides rather than hotel corridors, stamina & physical fitness are essential.
- Maintaining a high standard of cleanliness in all guest areas, including the Bracken facilities (restaurants, sauna, lounges, etc.).
- Spot-checking hides for damages, helping with minor maintenance issues (reporting them & sometimes basic fixes).
