The Town House

On booking the property we initially thought the location was perfect as we were visiting Dornoch for the Hogmanay street party which took place in the town square which was directly outside the property. However, the location also turned out to be the property’s downfall too as it was literally next door to a pub (the Coach House) who’s clientele were continually shouting and swearing in the street throughout the 3 nights of our stay, and on the first night a fight actually broke out too! On speaking to a local it seems this may be a regular occurrence and it’s a pub to avoid!

Despite the lounge area being on the top floor of the property we could hear almost everything from the street below throughout the days and into the early hours and especially from the pub next door. We couldn’t make use of the games room as it was freezing cold, it is located in what was an integrated garage but is not heated making it unusable in winter. The electric heating wasn’t the best and some radiators even had the temperature controls removed or broken off through wear and tear and other than our bedroom on the middle floor we found the house wasn’t very warm at all at any time of day, the draughty windows in the lounge didn’t help either. The clientele from the pub next door would congregate directly outside the property when going outside for a smoke, each morning we had to remove drinks from the entrance to the property and from the outside window ledge of the street level bedroom on the ground floor, I’d go as far as to suggest the ground floor bedroom would be unusable before 1am or whenever the pub closes.

Great location, very comfortable and clean . Big bonus was we had sky sports

Bit noisy as the pub is right beside it but it was xmas time so was expected

central location and nice looking property

good heating and good soft furnishings had a games room

Centrally located. Very comfortable. Would definitely rent again.

sofa very low and awkward to get out of

Very spacious and exceptionally clean . location was ideal because it was within walking distance to the golf club
