Royal Marine Hotel Brora

Lorimer house by the Brora links with dogs in almost every room

This hotel is part of the Daisy Curated Collection. Its information has been researched and verified, but Daisy has not yet personally stayed here. When she does, this page will be upgraded to a full Daisy Verified inspection.

Daisy's Assessment
Researched and verified. Not yet personally stayed.
An Arts and Crafts house designed by Robert Lorimer beside the Brora golf links and the river mouth, now a hotel on the east coast stretch of the North Coast 500. The Curing Yard restaurant nods to the village's old herring and salt industry. The beach and the dunes start a couple of minutes from the door. Only one guest room is closed to dogs, which makes availability far easier than at most Highland hotels.

Why it's in the collection

Brora beach and the dunes along the golf links are a two minute walk from the hotel, and the River Brora mouth gives you a flat riverside loop when the wind is up.

Dogs go in every guest room except Room 11, and into the lounge and bar.

Dogs are welcome in the guest rooms with the single exception of Room 11. The lounge and bar take dogs when they are not too busy, supervised throughout. If the dog is alone in the room, hang the do not disturb sign or tell reception. Dogs off the furniture and beds, and given a clean off after the beach before coming back in.

Where we can't yet confirm a detail first-hand, we mark it plainly rather than guess. A Daisy stay will close every gap.
