Recent Reviews in Portmahomack

Marine & Lawn Dornoch

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for a solo golf trip. Room, bar, food all excellent. Will bring a group back here for golf in the future. Great bar with pool room for a group trip."

Kincraig Castle Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The castle itself is so beautiful and cozy, but the staff absolutely make the experience. My partner and I celebrated our anniversary there, and the staff went above and beyond to make our time there special. Vijay was so friendly and accommodating, and really made us feel welcome and valued. We enjoyed a lovely dinner there, and our servers Anne and Denise, as well as Vijay, were so sweet and again just made us feel so special. Rajesh was also so awesome, and contributed greatly to our amazing experience. We also wanted to give Joyce a shoutout, as she was so kind and helpful with allowing us to extend our stay an extra night as there was a terrible storm we couldn’t drive through. All of the staff went above and beyond for us and truly made our stay so special. Additionally, the room was lovely and clean, the bed was very comfortable and the robes provided were so cozy. Just overall such a great experience, we couldn’t recommend it enough!"

Golf View Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely last minute stay. Sea views are truly spectacular. We are very glad we opted for that room option, with the bonus of a gorgeous freestanding bath and excellent in room amenities, well stocked mini bar and lovely toiletries. The pool and hot tub are spotless with plenty of seating. breakfast was also delicious. Firmly on the must return list!"

Ramnee Hotel

8/10 Good

"The new owners have a lot of work to do and have plans going forward. Rome wasn’t built in a day but they are doing their best. My room was comfortable and I had a couple of issues which were rectified as soon as they were made known to the staff. The food was good and the staff were all friendly and welcoming. Would certainly go back"

The Old Mill Inn

10/10 Excellent

"For an unknown reason receiving the entry details was difficult but eventually successful. The room was clean and the facilities were very good. The decor won’t please everyone but the invisible staff refreshed towels and drinks efficiently. Aware that no food service was available the presence of the fridge was helpful to store our own items. Didn’t try the recommended place for breakfast. It was a fair price to reach Findhorn and Forres for the festival. When the noise issue was mysteriously fixed it was a comfortable stay."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Portmahomack?

The best area to stay in Portmahomack is directly along the waterfront, offering immediate access to the beach and harbour.

This area is the heart of the village, with most of the accommodation options, eateries, and local shops situated along Main Street, which runs parallel to the coastline. The harbour, with its small fishing boats and the historic Portmahomack Lighthouse, is a focal point. It's a compact area, making everything easily walkable.

Couples looking for a peaceful retreat will find this area particularly appealing. The proximity to the beach means romantic strolls are always an option, and many accommodations offer stunning sea views. The quiet pace of life here allows for a truly relaxing break, perhaps enjoying a meal at one of the local establishments overlooking the water.

Families will also appreciate staying along the waterfront due to the easy access to the beach for children to play. The village's contained nature means everything is close by, reducing the need for extensive travel with little ones.

When is the best time to go to Portmahomack?

The best time to visit Portmahomack is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is at its most agreeable for outdoor activities.

During these months, you can expect longer daylight hours and milder temperatures, which are superb for exploring the coastline, enjoying boat trips for wildlife spotting, or playing a round of golf at the Portmahomack Golf Club. The village itself, situated on the Tarbat Ness peninsula, becomes a tranquil haven for those looking to relax by the sea.

Couples often find this period ideal for a peaceful retreat. The pleasant weather allows for leisurely walks along the sandy beaches, such as those near the Tarbat Ness Lighthouse, and dining al fresco at local eateries overlooking the Dornoch Firth. The longer evenings also provide more opportunities to enjoy the stunning sunsets over the water.

For families, the summer offers the best conditions for enjoying the outdoor attractions. Children can spend hours on the beaches, and the calmer seas are better suited for boat trips to see dolphins and seals.
