Rosehall is a remote hamlet in Sutherland near the confluence of the River Cassley and the River Oykel, a mile north-west of Altass. It is the site of the main road bridge over the Cassley, which is just downstream from the spectacular Achness Waterfall, commonly known simply as the Cassley Falls. There is a hotel which caters mostly to visitors fishing for salmon in the two rivers.

Rorehall is the tidal limit of the River Oykel, and therefore usually taken as the point at which it becomes known as the Kyle of Sutherland.
