Beautiful cottage and town, great place for exploring the locality. Beach lovely, sea freezing but it will warm up. Had a great time will be back.

Smaching place - lots of room - all the facilities you would want within walking distance. Great base for playing local golf courses, and getting around the Scottish Highlands. Everybody has been so helpful and friendly. We would happily recommend the cottage to others.
Mr & Mrs W, Coventry

Had a lovely week staying here in Firth View - weather was mixed but we did see the sun. Cottage was excellent - well equipped and centrally placed for all that Dornoch has on offer. Had a lovely paddle, along the sea front at Dornoch. Deserted beach and sunshine wonderful.
