Strathview Guest House

Situated above Loch Fleet and its nature reserve, Strathview enjoys stunning views over the loch and beyond to the Dornoch Firth on one side with open countryside and hills on the other three.  We are six miles from the country town of Dornoch with its “small but perfectly formed” twelfth century cathedral and five miles from the “model” village of Golspie.  Sitting on the A9 trunk road leading north through Inverness to Wick and Caithness we are ideally situated as a central staging post for daily tourist trips around the north and west and even the Orkney Isles.

Sutherland

Sutherland offers a host of attractions for the discerning tourist, stunning scenery for painters, photographers and walkers, award winning beaches for windsurfers or just building sand-castles.  Ornithologists are well catered for with official sites but there are plenty of viewing areas just off the beaten track.  For the wildlife enthusiast there are seals, deer, birds, dolphins, etc.  Fishing in local lochs, history everywhere you look from the ancient to the more modern, architecture and people tell the stories, particularly heart-rending in the case of the infamous “Highland Clearances”.  Play golf at Dornoch Struy Course or the more famous Royal Dornoch, at Golspie, Brora, Helmsdale, Bonar Bridge, Tain, Portmahomack, Allness, Invergordon and more.  There’s no shortage of challenging courses in the Highlands.
