Holiday lodge retreat near Royal Dornoch Golf Club with mountain views
Accommodation
Drift Lodge in Tain provides two bedrooms and two bathrooms, a configuration suited for small families or couples. The terrace opens onto mountain views, a setting that grounds the stay in the surrounding Sutherland landscape. Guests occupy a private caravan, a detail that positions the lodge as a self-contained retreat rather than a standard hotel room.
Kitchen & Dining
The fully equipped kitchen includes a microwave, refrigerator, and dishwasher, which allows longer stays without reliance on external services. A washing machine is available on-site, a utility that supports extended travel plans. The dining area is furnished with a table, offering a dedicated space for meals inside the lodge.
Parking & Connectivity
Free on-site private parking is included, removing the need for separate parking arrangements or fees. Free WiFi is available in public areas, a service that covers communal spaces within the lodge. The property is non-smoking throughout, a policy that applies to all indoor areas.
Location
Drift Lodge sits 11 km from Carnegie Club Skibo Castle and Royal Dornoch Golf Club, two golf destinations that draw visitors to the region. Dunrobin Castle is 26 km away, a full-day excursion from the lodge. Inverness Airport is 70 km from the property, with Dornoch Cathedral located within reach of the lodge.
Entertainment
The lodge includes a streaming service on the TV, which allows guests to access on-demand content during downtime. Free toiletries are provided in the bathroom, a supply item for daily use.
