We would like to help tailor your Embo House experience to your special needs.
It may be you don’t have any, in which case, no problem! But if you would like us to sort out any of the following extras, please let us know. Of course, there will have to be a small charge, which we can quote for when we understand your exact requirement

- You can buy your own supplies from local shops in Dornoch or supermarkets in Tain.
- The kitchen is supplied with everything you would expect: cooker, microwave, fridge, freezer, coffee machine etc.
