Very welcoming staff, great service. Love the efforts to reduce waste & be sustainable.
Room was good, clean & comfortable, had everything we needed.
Breakfast had a variety of homemade items, sourdough, granola, jam, local cheeses, smoked salmon & mackerel, along with bacon and eggs etc.
Lunch & evening menu had good choice of options, everything was delicious & well-presented.
Lovely outdoor space, beer garden if weather permits, fantastic location in centre of Dornoch.
Not hotel's fault but some guests were very noisy in the early morning as they left room & went along corridor!
