    Very nice location, friendly staff and very relaxing, only one thing is this is a dog friendly place but we were restricted to certain parts of the hotel so was slightly disappointed, but one of the staff took a shine to our dog and extra treats...

    Location is very good for my visit to Dornoch. Having stayed here 5/6 times a year I would say the breakfast was no where as good as it has been over the last 30 years of visiting!!
