Me and the family went for Sunday lunch. We had a 3 course meal, Starter was generous and tasty. Two of us had lamb and the other two had pork, the portions were not very big at all, 3 small slices or meat, 2 potatoes and not much else. The yorkshire pudding was cold and the pork was inedible, we... More

"Castle" implies up certain images and initially this hotel was a huge disappointment. We were in Room 23, a dog-tolerant room, and boy did it make me feel like a second rate citizen.

Had a lovely 2 night break in early May this year. Room was extremely comfortable, food delicious (we had dinner, bed and breakfast) and service excellent.

We stayed at Dornoch castle in late April. We choose the Old Courtroom room which had 20 foot ceilings, massive fireplace, 4 poster bed, which made us feel like we were back in the 15th century. I was very surprised at the quality of the food, 4 star for sure.... so if you want a once in a lifetime experience... More

We were traveling South towards Inverness and needed a room for the night. Dornoch is one of the few quaint villages around, and as we wanted to visit a distillery next day, decided to try for a room at this hotel.
