Dornoch is a quaint historical village tucked away in the very north of Scotland on the east coast. With its sandstone buildings, charming local business and antique shops, you would be forgiven for thinking you’re in the Cotswolds, but as your toes touch the sand, pipers play in the distance and you feel a cool wind come in from the west, you’ll know you’ve hit the Highlands.

Famous for its legendary golf links, the village is surrounded by well-trimmed rolling greens but golfing isn’t the only thing to do in Dornoch. Well-positioned in the East of Sutherland, some of the best things to do in the Highlands are close by.

So, visit Dornoch to play by the sea and discover beautiful beaches, historic castles, local Scottish distilleries and much more.
