The owners were warm and inviting. We had a lovely pop up dinner with a guest chef that was great! Breakfast was also delicious and well prepared. Our room was cozy and we were near the seastacks at John o’groats as well as the catamaran ferry to Orkney. Great location, cozy atmosphere and relaxed vibe!

Great location if you want to go to The Orkneys.
Great location if you want to go to The Orkneys. There are also many other locations close for sight seeing from here. The view over the Pentland crossing. Staff were very welcoming and friendly with great advice on the area.

At the edge of Scotland, the gateway to the Orkneys or a sea tour. No facilities to speak of and the nearest Tesco is a 20 minute drive, so come prepared or just pass through here. The drive up is a hazard in terms of road maintenance. .FamilieNetherlands - 8.0Scored 8.0

The rooms were not cleaned and the toilet was actually full of crap so we had to call them and they cleaned it right away. The staff seemed to be overwhelmed, and the bathroom was extremely small so for one night it was not bad but can't stay for a few more days. The rooms were very cramped and when you enter the door could only be opened partially as it hit the bed. The configuration of bed placement was poor. That said, the location of this hotel was excellent and the staff were very pleasant to deal with.

Stunning sea views which could be enjoyed from inside the property or out on the deck. Excellent facilities and well maintained property, cleaned to a high standard. Hosts were friendly and very accommodating. We were left alone to enjoy our break but had support on site when needed. Superb onsite staff. Our heating had stopped working but this was resolved quickly and didn't intrude on our short break. There were some lovely onsite gift shops. There was also a cafe which we didn't have time to visit. There is also a small post office a short walk away with a few essentials available if needed. We prepared our own food and found the kitchen facilities and equipment in the kitchen to be fantastic. I would have preferred less outdoor lighting at night to reduce light pollution for viewing the beautiful night sky.

We went for the walking and took the John O'Groats trail. As we went on Boxing day it was all closed, but there are a few shops there worth a look. You can drive all the way and there is parking at £3 per day.Michael - 10Scored 10

We enjoyed a boat trip whilst at John O'Groats even though we didn't see any dolphins or whales. The local brewery with attached bar was a great place to spend an afternoon. We enjoyed a nice evening meal at the Seaview Hotel just two minutes drive from our accommodation. There were a few tourist gift shops where you can stock up on all your gifts for friends and family. There is also the famous signpost where everybody has their photographs taken.Karl WayneUnited Kingdom

Great on site bar to relax in during the evening and a large dining room which gave plenty of flexibility for meals times. Stunning views from the dining room as well. Ate two evening meals and two breakfasts here, there was a really varied and extensive menu and the food was superb. All of the staff were fantastic - simply cannot fault them - just really helpful and friendly.steveUnited Kingdom
- 9.0Scored 9.0WonderfulRated wonderful· 259 reviewsOne of the warmest welcome we’ve ever received, really made you feel at home. One of the best places we stayed on the NC 500. The decor was cute and beautiful with small details throughout. The breakfast room was great with fresh eggs and fresh bread from the farm. 8mim walk to John o Groats for the boat trip around the orkneys. The animals were just as friendly and a lovely end to our stay here was going round to feed them all some carrots. Highly recommend and look forward to visiting again.JonathonUnited Kingdom

Perfect and very helpful host in this two-bedroom guesthouse with communal area and outstanding breakfast.
