Offering guests impeccable service and quality accommodation. Many of the individually styled bedrooms overlook the golf course and the Dornoch Firth beyond, each equipped with everything you would expect from a hotel of this calibre. In the conservatory restaurant the head chef will once again demonstrate the great flair and imagination offered by the Royal Golf of old by using the very finest local ingredients to create many mouth-watering dishes. The hotel is your ideal base in the Highlands, and with 20 golf courses within an hours drive, as well as extensive hill walking, fishing and the many award-winning beaches all nearby you are sure of a memorable break away.
There is much to see and do in the local area, with miles of sandy beaches which play host to an array of water sports activities including windsurfing and water-skiing. The coast teams with wildlife, such as seals, and a sizable population of both breeding and wintering birds. Dornoch town which dates from the 12th century is steeped in history, with the impressive cathedral plus many quaint shops and wonderful places to eat. There are many attractions in the local area including Glenmorangie Distillery where you can find out more about the history of this wonderful malt. Also Dunrobin Castle which resembles a French chateau with its conical spires is the most northerly of Scotlands great houses, plus one of Britains oldest continuously inhabited houses dating back to the early 1300s.
