Welcome to Sutherland

Leisure Centres and Swimming Pools / Libraries / Schools / Useful Links

Sutherland covers the largest area of the Highland mainland. Its landscape is characterised by sandy beaches on a rocky coastline and magnificent mountains. Recent multi-million pound investments in the fishery harbours of Kinlochbervie and Lochinver in the West have turned them into two of the busiest fishery ports in the UK.
