What Tripadvisor has to say:

“Over the past twelve years I have lost count of the number of times I have stayed there. Last week was my first visit for 2012. Nothing lifts my spirits like a few days in magnificent Dornoch and staying at the Dornoch Castle Hotel. I have absolutely nothing to complain about! Even the bus stops a few yards from the front entrance.”
