Set on the shores of the Dornoch Firth, this convivial North Highlands inn is 50 minutes north of Inverness. Glenmorangie Distillery owns and manages the 17th-century property, which feels unpretentious and welcoming with a house-party ambiance. Log fires warm the lounges and the delightful dining room, which serves seasonally inspired dishes that employ locally raised beef and lamb and vegetables sourced from the walled kitchen garden. All six comfortable and pleasantly appointed lodgings in the Main House lack A/C but feature a classic Scottish décor with traditional tweed and tartan accents and views over the Moray Firth or the hotel’s gardens. Three adjacent cottages offering spacious living areas with sofa beds are ideal for families. Activities include walks on the hotel’s private beach, salmon and trout fishing, and nearby golf at Royal Dornoch and Tain.
Complimentary tastings and tours of the giant copper stills and barrel warehouse at the Glenmorangie Distillery, located a 20-minute-drive from the estate on the outskirts of Tain, are offered daily.
Editor’s Choice: Main House Room, $530 (Scottish breakfast, distillery tour and four-course dinner included).
