Top Dornoch Hotel Reviews

Royal Golf Hotel

Royal Golf Hotel

8/10 Good
"The view from the dining room (across the first tee at Royal Dornoch, and over the Dornoch Firth) is stunning. Food (dinner and breakfast) was excellent, and the staff were very helpful. Our only disappointment was the view from our bedroom, featuring a fire escape and staff walkway. Not important as we were only staying one night, but I will check the room before booking when I return."
