Hotels in Dornoch, Scotland

“This is a very special place. the accommodations are luxurious and the proximity to golf and town are perfect. The food at Mara was simply superb. I did not use the menu and had the staff chose my courses. My meals were exquisite. Most importantly the staff are warm, knowledgeable and extraordinarily caring. We were touched by their level of service and pride in what has been achieved in creating one of the most special and welcoming Inn anywhere in the world.”

“Located on the roadside A9 just north of Dornoch. Handy location for locals, holidaymakers or those travelling the NC500. Friendly staff and a welcoming comfortable setting. Good selection on menu along with with some daily specials. Reasonable prices and good portion sizes. Serving proper home cooked food with fresh quality ingredients and flavoursome vegetables. No frozen veg here! Best garlic mushrooms starter I’ve tasted! Well recommend and will be returning :)”

“We're just there for an evening meal and I couldn't fault the food, very good quality! The time waiting between courses took an age and extra portions ordered were forgotten so even more waiting.”

“Dornoch Castle Hotel is definitely an old world charm about this hotel. We booked the Cathedral view room. This overlooks the main road and was quiet during our stay, despite having the window open. The room was big, and spacious and decorated in the character of the hotel. The bathroom was a bit dated with whirl pool system on the bath. Didn't use this but did use the shower but you had to climb into the bath (good water pressure on the shower). The toilet was nicely located in the turret which added a bit of quirkiness. Breakfast was OK but my eggs benedict could have done with more hollandaise. My wife's veggie breakfast we good though. The only other slight issue was the noise from passing guests as the room is on the 1st floor with a number of corridors leading off it and we did have a number of people filing past making a noise. Not the hotel fault but something to consider when choosing rooms.”
