Local services are plentiful and include several hotels, tea rooms, antique shops, bank and general stores. The primary school is adjacent to the secondary school and both are highly regarded. Dornoch has a sandy beach and 18 hole Championship Golf Course and there are many other activities on offer including football, bowling, horse riding, squash, tennis and table tennis. The exclusive Skibo Castle sits just outside Dornoch, is set in some 7000 acres and is home to the Carnegie Golf and Country Club. Dornoch is nestled between the Dornoch Firth and Loch Fleet nature reserve, a haven for birds and wildlife. There are forest walks available and the Sutherland Hills are a short drive for those wanting more of a challenge. Loch Lannsaidh is within easy reach and is stocked with wild brown trout for the avid fisherman with loch Laoigh also available further north.
