Orcadia Cottage in Dornoch is an excellent choice for travelers enjoying the Highlands! So cozy and comfortable with many modern conveniences.

Early summer beach trip

Great location- 5 minute walk to village centre. Lots of space inside and out. Well equipped. Quiet neighbourhood. Great restaurants in Dornoch centre, particularly Luigi’s which was excellent (recommend booking in advance). Excellent showers. Easy walking access to beach. Garden is well sheltered and there are lots of sun traps.
