Hello, are you able to cross the bridge to get closer to the castle without needing to pay to enter the castle? In other words, do you pay to enter the structure or to enter the property?
A:
Nope, not without a ticket. That is the cheapest ticket that you can buy - it will get you across the bridge.
I’ll be staying in Portree, is is possible to ride a bus 927 then stop in the castle? And what bus stop? And If so, is it possible to leave a luggage? Thanks

There is a bus stop at Eilean Donan but sorry not sure if the number. Lockers are available it not sure you would get a big suitcase in, maybe small hand luggage. Enjoy your trip.
