5-star luxury hotel beside Royal Dornoch Golf Club in the Scottish Highlands

Dining

Links House at Royal Dornoch houses MARA, a restaurant awarded 2AA Rosettes for its seasonally inspired menu that champions local produce. The culinary team prepares dishes such as beef wellington, lamb, and venison using ingredients sourced from the surrounding Highlands. Guests can also enjoy a Champagne Afternoon Tea or a tasting menu paired with wines from an extensive list.

Rooms

Guest rooms are spread across three buildings: the Main House, Mews, and Glenshiel, each with individually designed interiors that incorporate local artwork. The Glenshiel building is available for exclusive use during private events and celebrations. Rooms include en-suite bathrooms with large walk-in showers, some with soaking tubs, and guests receive a welcome cocktail and homemade shortbread upon arrival.
