Head Housekeeper

**The Place**

Our hotel in Dornoch is located just a few yards from the first tee at Royal Dornoch Golf Club, and overlooks the beach and Dornoch Firth. A golfers paradise, some might say

With 22 guest rooms and 12 luxury apartments, we also have one restaurant that creates exciting and seasonally changing dishes with an emphasis on fresh local ingredients. Guests can enjoy speciality gins and the finest whisky’s in our bar and lounge or al fresco in the garden overlooking the links at Royal Dornoch Golf Club.

The town and hotel are steeped in fascinating history but we are a vibrant and energetic team and thrive on offering our guests the very best Highland experience.

Working at the Royal Golf Hotel you have the great outdoors at your feet so you can create your own adventures every single day. That said, your working day can be very busy especially during the summer months, but a great work/life balance is encouraged.

When you are not working you have the option of taking part in the many outdoor pursuits that Dornoch has to offer. And being located on the Nc500 opens up the rest of the Highlands to visit on your days off.

Our vision has four key pillars; our people, our guests, our communities, and our environment, and what matters most to us is delivering an authentic experience of the Scottish Highlands to our guests. This can only happen with a strong team that shares our Vision.
