Top Skelbo Hotel Reviews

Kincraig Castle Hotel

8/10 Good

"This property has a lot of potential. Our room was very sparse and not inviting. Not what we expected in a castle. The common rooms were very beautiful and fun to lounge in. The bar and restaurant staff didn't seem very knowledgable about their menus, although the food was very good. The grounds were nice but could have been beautified a little."

St Duthus Villa Guesthouse

10/10 Excellent

"Very clean staff excellent parking easy close to amenities good value"

Royal Golf Hotel

8/10 Good

"The view from the dining room (across the first tee at Royal Dornoch, and over the Dornoch Firth) is stunning. Food (dinner and breakfast) was excellent, and the staff were very helpful. Our only disappointment was the view from our bedroom, featuring a fire escape and staff walkway. Not important as we were only staying one night, but I will check the room before booking when I return."

Dornoch Station

10/10 Excellent

"location and building"

Shore Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Spectacular boutique hotel in a stunning location. Staff were great, as was the food!"

Golspie Inn

8/10 Good

"Good pit stop"

Royal Marine Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean and cosy. Breakfast was delicious. All staff were pleasant and helpful. We throughly enjoyed our stay."

Delny Glamping

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful spot, especially with kids, as the common space has a slide, pirate ship climber, farm animals to see (goats, chickens, ponies) and grass to run on. The glamping cabins were quite clean and "cozy", as you'd expect, but we fit 3 adults and 3 kids in there. We were able to buy some firewood for a cooking fire. Definitely recommended for anyone looking to get a bit of a camping experience. Owners were very friendly as well, and generally available as needed."

Tuckers Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Tuckers Inn is a great traveller’s rest, clean, comfortable and quiet, the food on offer there was delicious. All the staff there were fantastic, friendly and accommodating."
