|
| Steeped in Scottish history and fascinating
legends, the 15th century Dornoch Castle Hotel
firmly stands its ground opposite the inspiring
12th century Dornoch Cathedral. Set in private
and beautifully manicured gardens, this Scottish
Castle still bears an air of magnificence and grace,
and is the perfect venue for your Scottish Highland
luxury castle hotel break or as one of the most
stunning Scottish wedding venues in the UK.
All 24 Dornoch Castle en-suite bedrooms are tastefully decorated with a strong emphasis on comfort and tranquillity but still having that Baronial home atmosphere. There are deluxe Castle Rooms, superior Castle Rooms and Garden Rooms, the latter were built in the late 70's and form the easterly wing of the Castle. The hotel has undergone some major refurbishment recently and there are many rooms of individual character.
