RoomsWith aStory

Historic interiors, Highland views, and spaces with a character all their own. Gather up to 200 in the 1616 Ballroom or take over The Golden Gorse or Bar Ross for something more intimate, with Royal Dornoch and the coast just outside the door.


The 1616 Ballroom

185 sq m | Reception 200

Statement chandeliers, grand columns, and a bold floral ceiling give the 1616 Ballroom plenty of character. Marine & Lawn Dornoch’s largest event space, it can host up to 200 guests with room to make the occasion your own.

Ideal For: Weddings, celebrations, conferences and gala dinners.

The Golden Gorse

Looking across the Royal Dornoch links towards the sea, The Golden Gorse brings the Highland setting right to the table. Available for exclusive use, the restaurant offers an elegant but relaxed setting with access to its outdoor terrace.

Ideal For: Private dinners, celebrations and group gatherings.

Bar Ross

Rich wood panelling, tartan and the warmth of a classic Highland bar give Bar Ross a character all its own. Take over the space for a relaxed gathering built around good drinks, good company and a setting that feels distinctly Dornoch.

Ideal For: Drinks receptions, private parties and informal gatherings.
