Glen Dael is a bright bungalow situated in a quiet residential cul de sac in the historic town of Dornoch in the beautiful county of Sutherland.

The house has been completely refurbished to a high standard and very well equipped to provide warm comfortable accommodation at any time of year. It is mostly double glazed. The large enclosed garden comprises lawns, borders, a few trees and a sunny patio and is gradually being planted to encourage birds and butterflies.

There is ample off street parking for 3 cars which makes it ideal for friends or family groups. The garage provides shelter for bicycles.

The house is within walking distance of the town centre with its cathedral, cafes, restaurants, interesting shops (including bookshop and the Jail gift shop) and the occasional farmers' market. A footpath accessed via the rear garden gate takes you direct to the town centre.

Petrol is 2 miles away at Evelix and groceries and butcher meat in town and nearby supermarkets.

Dornoch is renowned for its beautiful beach and championship links golf course, Royal Dornoch and neighbouring Struie course and is well situated for playing many other courses including some 9 hole courses in scenic locations.

Guest Reviews

The accommodation is very comfortable and well equipped with extensive gardens to the front and rear which would suit a family with young children. Although the accommodation is sited in a quiet residential area of Dornoch it is within a 5min. walking distance to the shops and eateries of the town. We would definitely consider a return visit there
Mr M, Denny

This house is very convenient for the town and the local restaurants. It is well furnished and equipped and is very well kept.
