    The house is in the center of the village, but very quiet. No problem inside ; it is in Scotland, so a little bit wet ! Good place for one week, near the most beautiful part of Sutherland.

    Enjoyed our stay in Dornoch. Extremely hot week - could have done with a lighter downie! Enjoyed trips to Dunrobin Castle, Portmahomack, Cromarty via Nigg Ferry and of course Dornoch's wonderful beach. Beer Garden at Dornoch Castle Hotel and Royal Golf Hotel recommended. Minor points: i)TV acted up a bit ii)could do with more face/hand towels and toilet rolls Thanks Helen

    Very good week. Handbook had all information we required. Excellent location enabling us to walk to all the restaurants and stroll round the town. No basic issues. One slight one was the hand basin. Hot tap only had a 1/4 turn so very slow plus plug didn't sit properly and allowed water to flow out.

    My two weeks in Dornoch could not have been more perfect at this property. The location is ideal and the Donald Ross history angle makes it even more special for a golfer. Communication was great and Julia, the owner, was very available. I did not have any issues or concerns during the stay as everything was straightforward and in excellent condition. Thank you again, Julia—I hope to be able to stay again next year!

    Excellent base to explore the beautiful surrounding area. Just about everything needed to feel at home (with the exception of a pizza wheel....?). The welcome pack needs a little updating (some contradicting info re recycling), but overall, near perfect...?

    We really enjoyed staying in the cottage. The location in the heart of Dornoch is perfect. The home is decorated to a high standard. The kitchen is very well equipped. We were all so pleased with the Electric blankets on the comfy beds as we have them in our home as well. We are planning on staying again if that's possible this year. The owner is very friendly and helpful.

    My husband and I have just returned from a relaxing week in Dornoch. We stayed in this lovely cosy cottage which had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The location is perfect right in the heart of the town and near all amenities. Julia the owner was easily contacted and extremely helpful. We will definitely return to Dornoch in the future and to this cottage.
