Amazing views of a beautiful place

We have been to portmahomack several times but this was our first stay in this property. It had everything we could need for a cozy/comfortable stay and as the weather was kind to us, made full use of the deck to take in the scenery

The cottage was clean, cosy and perfect for a short break with my daughters. There are fantastic views across the Firth and different sunsets every night. The host Duncan communicated throughout the booking process and gave us information about the local area. There is. Pub in the village which serves good bar Marla’s and a restaurant called The Oyster Catcher. which serves a bespoke tasting menu
Sunset from outside the pub.

Excellent holiday cottage very well equipped, with stunning views over the Dornoch Firth. The only thing that could have been improved was the TV, which was not setup for Freeview or Sky. and was not easy to navigate.

Pleased to see that you enjoyed your week, but disappointed that although each rating was top marks, overall you scored us lower because of tv. (The aerial was out after a storm the previous week, but it is a smart tv and we have fast internet...).
