Situated in Dornoch and only 1.1 km from Carnegie Club Skibo Castle, Luxurious First Floor Flat features accommodation with mountain views, free WiFi and free private parking. The property is soundproof and is located 1.3 km from Royal Dornoch Golf Club.

The apartment is beautifully presented, in a great location just a short walk into the village and to the beach. Having spent the last week in a sterile hotel room, this was an absolute blessing. It is brand new but yet has a real homely feel to it which was much welcomed. The facilities are immaculate with all the kit to cook at home when you don’t fancy eating out. The stocked bean to cup coffee machine made my mornings before heading off for work, a real treat. The sky tv box and flat screen tv was ideal for evenings when you just wanted to stay in and relax. There are bags and towels for the beach. The apartment really does have anything and everything you will need for your stay! Chris and Margaret are wonderful hosts and easily contactable, should you need them. In short, this is the best apartment I’ve ever let through booking.com, and I do quite regularly for work. I will be back!

    A very comfortable, clean apartment, in an ideal position in Dornoch. Loved the heated floors in Kitchen and Bathroom! Bed was very comfortable, and plenty of hot water for shower.

    The location is fantastic, good local amenities close by - Dornoch is a great little town. The pod was very clean and spacious with a well appointed little kitchenette. The bed was very comfortable and well supplied with pillows. There were three of us so we used the sofa bed too, which was comfy also. All in all a great little home from home.
