Wild open moorland and panoramic mountain views, remote sandy beaches and soaring cliffs - when you stay in Sutherland you’ll have one of the truly get-away-from-it-all landscapes on your doorstep. As well as being an anglers’ dream, this is great walking and touring country - winding coastal roads lead to bustling fishing ports, huge nature reserves and quiet coves. Don’t miss a trip to John O’Groats in neighbouring Caithness. Traditionally the most northerly point of the British Isles, it’s also a departure point for day trips to Orkney.You’ll enjoy easy access to a whole host of attractions when you take a holiday in Sutherland. The pretty little town of Dornoch, despite its small size, boasts not only a cathedral, old courthouse and town jail but also the famous Royal Dornoch Golf Club, while the coastal village of Helmsdale is home to the award winning, colourful exhibits at Timespan. The Falls of Shin salmon leap and forest and wildlife spotting trails offer a great day out, and no stay in Sutherland would be complete without a visit to Dunrobin, the magnificent, fairytale castle home of the Clan Sutherland. |
