With some great road trip options available in the surrounding area, renting a car makes good sense. Without one, it wouldn’t be half as easy to soak up all that Dornoch, 19 miles away, has to offer. See the sights beginning with Skibo Castle, Royal Dornoch Golf Club and Dornoch Beach. The locals are also likely to point you in the direction of Golspie, 19 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, let it be Dunrobin Castle. (But we’d also highly recommend Big Burn Walk and Golspie Golf Club.)
