Wow what a great find. Located in a lovely old town with a lot of character. The property inside and out is very well maintained and kept. The rooms are spacious and well furnished. There is off street parking for your car but I would guess that the street would be fine. The breakfast was good and well cooked. The... More

We arrived unannounced at 6pm on Hogmanay - no booking and a Border Collie as part of our party. Due to the other accommodation having fallen through we desperately needed a bed for the night. Paul was so welcoming and so relaxed. Nothing was too much of a hassle for him and he didn't even blink at the dog request.... More

We have stayed here on several occasions. It is a very good B&B, ideal location in the middle of the town, pleasant hosts, comfortable rooms, very well fitted out, secure parking and ideal for a golfing break. Three things rankle. With such large bathrooms, why put in such short corner baths? There would have been ample room for proper ones.... More

Oh dear - the title says it all - if only you had just said "fresh milk please" - we keep a supply of small jugs for those guests who wish to have fresh milk in their rooms, just ask. Sorry you don't like our lovely large corner whirlpool baths. We have two other rooms with normal oblong baths, if... More

I spent two nights at the Bank House B&B in Dornoch this past August and was very pleased with the room, food, and hospitality of the owners. The room was large, with high ceilings, a queen-sized bed, and a full bath. The food was plenty and well prepared, and the owners were both very pleasant. The lady of the house... More

Friendly couple who were amazing. Obtained an adapter for us that we forgot to bring along to charge our cameras. Gave us an amazingly spacious room with tea/coffee/hot chocolate etc. Bathroom clean and was new. Breakfast was amazing, more food that you can think of, and helped us on our journey to the rest of the highlands that day. very... More

For the fourth year we have returned to The Bank House as the whole package is superb. The location, rooms and especially the breakfast are all magnificent. Paul & Irene are first class hosts. The off street parking is an added bonus.

Our golf group stayed here in June and we were treated like family. Bank House is located at the west end of town, but is within walking distance of everything in Dornoch. Breakfast was a real treat and the rooms were spacious and well appointed. On site parking a real plus, but even parking on the street is not a... More
