Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Portmahomack?
The best area to stay in Portmahomack is directly along the waterfront, offering immediate access to the beach and harbour.

This area is the heart of the village, with most of the accommodation options, eateries, and local shops situated along Main Street, which runs parallel to the coastline. The harbour, with its small fishing boats and the historic Portmahomack Lighthouse, is a focal point. It's a compact area, making everything easily walkable.

Couples looking for a peaceful retreat will find this area particularly appealing. The proximity to the beach means romantic strolls are always an option, and many accommodations offer stunning sea views. The quiet pace of life here allows for a truly relaxing break, perhaps enjoying a meal at one of the local establishments overlooking the water.

Families will also appreciate staying along the waterfront due to the easy access to the beach for children to play. The village's contained nature means everything is close by, reducing the need for extensive travel with little ones.
When is the best time to go to Portmahomack?
The best time to visit Portmahomack is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is at its most agreeable for outdoor activities.

During these months, you can expect longer daylight hours and milder temperatures, which are superb for exploring the coastline, enjoying boat trips for wildlife spotting, or playing a round of golf at the Portmahomack Golf Club. The village itself, situated on the Tarbat Ness peninsula, becomes a tranquil haven for those looking to relax by the sea.

Couples often find this period ideal for a peaceful retreat. The pleasant weather allows for leisurely walks along the sandy beaches, such as those near the Tarbat Ness Lighthouse, and dining al fresco at local eateries overlooking the Dornoch Firth. The longer evenings also provide more opportunities to enjoy the stunning sunsets over the water.

For families, the summer offers the best conditions for enjoying the outdoor attractions. Children can spend hours on the beaches, and the calmer seas are better suited for boat trips to see dolphins and seals.
