Region: From the lush green farmlands of the Borders to the ruggedness of the Highlands, the Scots are proud of their land and identity. Scotland also has some of Britain’s best beaches with glorious stretches of clean sand over which to roam. Town: Lairg, which is positioned in the middle of the lonely and stunning Northern Highlands, is 50 miles north of Inverness. Visitors may enjoy excellent golf courses, world-class fishing, some of the best hill walking and mountaineering terrain in the nation, as well as the magnificent castle at Dunrobin, which serves as the home of the Earls of Sutherland. The castle, which has a sea view, has a stunning formal garden that was modelled after the splendour of Versailles in France. Along with playing at the renowned Royal Dornoch Golf Club, golfers may also enjoy a round at nearby facilities at Bonar Bridge, Golspie, and Ullapool. The West, North, and East coasts can all be reached easily from Lairg, which also offers breathtaking landscape in every direction. Ben Hope, the most northerly Munro, and the well-known peaks Suilven, Arkle, and Foinavon are all accessible to walkers. Visitors interested in whisky can take advantage of trips to local distilleries including Balblair, Clynelish, and Glenmorangie. Enthusiastic anglers can choose from a variety of picturesque trout lochs in the neighbourhood, which is located at the southern end of the gorgeous Loch Shin. Numerous additional outdoor adventure pursuits, such as falconry, bird watching and photography, woodcarving, geology, kayaking, or even dry stone walling, can be done nearby. There are few things better for the authentic Highland experience.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
