Whoo Hoo great news. Can't beat food at The Pier 😍

Coming soon to a Pier near you! I know we said we’d try to do this last year and it didn’t happen but this year, it’s HAPPENING!

We are fully staffed in our kitchen for a busy season ahead 🙌 Some of you have been asking if we lost chefs due to our ads for new chefs but absolutely not, rest assured, we still have all of our amazing team, we just needed some extra hands to allow for an extra evening opening and also to cover for 2 of our kitchen team being on maternity 🥰🥰 👶🏼 👶🏼

Watch this space for more info on Thursday evening opening! 🤩🤩🤩

Great news if our guests don't want to cook their own breakfast, head over to Milk & Honey Cafe in Dornoch to start your day off right 😋😋😋

It’s that time of year again. Brighter, longer days means longer opening hours at Milk & Honey! We’ll see you from 9am tomorrow 💛 ☀️

Great news for our guests staying with us, we have been on several tours with EcoVentures, Cromarty and have never been disappointed 🐬🦭

Catch the Nigg-Cromarty Ferry Highland Ferries or take a drive along the north coast of The Black Isle through some stunning countryside.

Lots of lovely places to eat and drink in Cromarty.

The first trip of the 2025 season will be on Monday 31st of March. And with recent sightings of a number of Humpbacks spotted off the Sutors we are looking forward to getting back out on the water!

The gift shop and office will re-open on Sunday 30th March. Bookings can be made online at https://www.ecoventures.co.uk/ or just pop us an email at [email protected].

Looking forward to a great season out there.

Today's adventure took us to Culloden Battlefield near Inverness. The Battlefield itself is open all year round offering a nice flat walk being dog friendly too 🐾, with the Visitor Centre open between January and November. Entry is free to all National Trust members.

Culloden is the site of the last pitched battle on British soil which took place on 16th April 1746 and the whole site is well worth a visit.

The snow is beautiful at the moment and as fine as icing sugar! Even though it is around -6° it really doesn't feel cold outside at all.
We are delighted to see that the lichen and pine cones are still thriving under the snow, giving extra nourishment for the squirrels, pine martins and birds.
Magnus, our boxer, loves the snow ❄️ 🐾 - remember we are dog friendly for up to two dogs with a safe and secure garden.

The Highlands of Scotland are beautiful whatever the season and we are open all year round. If you fancy a full week, two or three days or just a long weekend - if you wish to make a booking then visit

There are car hiring facilities at Inverness Airport (approx 1.5 hours away) or if you want a walking/hiking break, then there are train links from the Airport to Lairg Station (1/4 mile away)

We love the sound of our burn when it's flowing like this. There's always a silver cloud during relentless heavy rain 🌧☔️🌬🌧☔️🌬
