Kids Days Out In Sutherland

Sutherland is empty in the best sense: big skies, few people and a coastline that does not need improving. Days out here are outdoor days with a small indoor stop built in.

We list 6 attractions across the area. The Falls of Shin has the salmon leaping in season and a viewing platform to watch from, Ferrycroft at Lairg covers the walks and the local wildlife, and Historylinks at Dornoch is the wet weather hour.

You need a car and you need to allow for the distances. Dornoch beach is the free day out that most families end up remembering.
