(7 miles) Nice cafe in Seaboard Village hall. A Pictish stone.... Sometimes you can see dolphins swimming here. A rocky beach but joins onto a lovely sandy stretch at Shandwich bay, as a local if you can't find it, it is tucked away there and is worth finding.

A beautiful drive miles into the countryside. Preserved writing on the church windows from the time of the Highland clearances when folks desperately tried to get in to shelter in the church after being put of their land.

Great little town...of course I'd say that! Large supermarkets for easy grocery shopping- ASDA, Tesco, Lidl, also Home Bargains. Other shops on High Street include Ironmongers (sells, also shooting and fishing tackle), Hospice charity shop with large selection of books, etc. restaurants. Walks up Tain Hill, down at Tain Links, places to see like Glenmorangie Distillery (check opening dates)

Visit the beautiful sandy beach, play a round of golf, or have a walk around the town square which has historic buildings including a cathedral. The old town jail is transformed into an upmarket clothes and gift shop, a must to visit! Dornoch is another place to stop for ice-cream (Harry Gow's is where I know). It's always worth a visit to the boutique style Hospice charity shop too!!

Going north west, possibly takes an hour by car, is a nice run out. You could carry on further up to Tongue...or come back east to Rogart through the hills...
