TravellerHighly recommended
First rate property
TravellerThe location is very good. Really well appointed, rooms are of a very high standard containing everything that you need for your stay. The staff are all very professional and friendly, the food is of a high standard.
TravellerVery quiet location for good nights sleep.
Stayed here 2 nights. Room we were given was not room we had booked but mentioned to owner and we were given a better room straight away. Very comfortable bed and lovely big bathroom. Tasty breakfast. We did not have dinner as menu not to my partners liking.
TravellerNice hotel quiet location, beautifuly furnished everything you need and more ,the staff were excellent, really first class accommodation, 5 mins to town centre and the beach, good places to eat, can’t wait to revisit many thanks Jayne and Steve.
TravellerOutstanding Experience - Highly Recommended!
Simply outstanding! We keep comparing our other hotel, inn, B&B experiences within Scotland and keep saying “it’s not The Steading”.....Jayne and Stephen were perfect hosts along with the entire staff plus having a great chef in Andrew. The room was well appointed, clean, quiet and had plenty of space. Excellent breakfast and the dinners far exceeded expectations. And, of course, the golf in the area is hard to beat...... My wife and I highly recommend The Steading and look forward to a return visit.
Travellerin my top 10
Great room, fantastic views to match the superb food. Amazing hosts and of course special thanks to Ozzie for his company and toy sharing. My one concern is how popular this place is going to get
TravellerWonderful B&B just a two minute drive to Center of Dornoch town. Everything was fantastic. The hosts, Steve and Jane, were warm and welcoming. The staff was truly great and friendly. We enjoyed two nights at the Steading. Had dinner one of the nights and it was quite enjoyable. The Steading is a great place to make your base for touring the Highlands, playing golf or just relaxing in te Dornoch area. Can’t leave out a mention of Ozzie, the Steading’s loyal and friendly Collie. Our experience was like spending a few days at home. Very comfortable and relaxing. Highly recommend.
TravellerAn extremely nice bed and breakfast!
Our favourite B@B stay during our tour of the North Coast 500 route.The hosts were most welcoming and facilities are top class. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitley recommend to friends
TravellerPerfect place to relax and enjoy the views.
Absolutely outstanding place to stay and relax. Facilities impeccably clean and bed was very comfortable. We actually booked another night because we enjoyed our stay so very much. Would highly recommend.
TravellerExcellent and faultless
We booked the Steading as the final accommodation on our NC500 route. The dwelling is in a superb setting outside of Dornoch. Every guest consideration had been thought of including IT and WIFI + bathrobes and slippers. Rooms were spotless and bed very comfortable. A communal guest room with sofas and shared refreshments available is a nice idea too.
TravellerThis was a wonderful place to stay. Beautiful room and the owner was so nice and welcoming. Great for a relaxing get away.
TravellerA Great Little B&B
A really excellent new b&b just off the A9 road. It has been finished to a very good standard and deserves to succeed.
TravellerPerfect choice,
The accommodation was superb, service first class, views to die for, staff give you that warm family feeling. Wee loved it and will be back. Thanks to all especially Gina.
TravellerGreat Place

TravellerGood location to the golf course.

Hotel was comfortable. Old but well kept. Spacious room. Dinner was good, despite of a smaller choice on Sunday night
