What an absolute gem! Highly recommend staying in this delightful boutique hotel with all you can need. This included shampoo, conditioner, liquid and cake soap, bubble bath, eye masks, shower caps, vanity packs, and delicious biscuits. There was also a sensational restaurant that was well worth dining in for. The upstairs room, with ensuite, overlooked the garden with bird feeder and was very quiet. Parking was on site with plenty of space. The hotel is set in some lovely gardens overlooking the ocean loch. The staff were amazing.

The breakfast and the dinner on our arrival were amazing!! Tasteful and nicely presented! Beyond our expectations! The staff very friendly and helpful. Who particularly stood out was the lady at the bar and serving our dinner and breakfast and also the cleaning lady - she has the most beautiful attitude and smile and was very warm in our interaction- her passion for her work was impeccable- the cleanliness of the room outstanding. Room 10 very spacious and comfortable. Easy parking, open bar, restaurant…easy relax after out long trip. Very pleasant bedsheets. We had a very lovely stay from all points!!!

Thurso still feels a generally friendly town.

Thurso still feels a generally friendly town. The Visitors Centre was excellent, very helpful friendly staff, with advice, directions and postcards. The beach is lovely, and the castle very picturesque, though I have no idea if you can go round it as it is on the opposite side of a long inlet and I wasn't about to walk all the way round there on the off-chance. Good amount of shops, and seemingly banks still in the town. YNot offers expensive but good quality food. If you want a walk, or have a car, the Ferry Inn in Scrabster is a great place to eat too.

The surrounding area is beautiful and well worth exploring.

The surrounding area is beautiful and well worth exploring. Rogie falls, the Touchstone Maze, Fyrish Monument and hill walk are all very close. The old train station of Strathpeffer is worth a look and there is also castle Leod, the seat of the Mackenzie clan which inspired the author of Outlander when writing her books, but check the website as it is only open certain days of the year. Dingwall is a good base when exploring other small towns also. It sit near a river which provides beautiful sunrises and views of the geese flying overhead

Dornoch surprised us with its beauty - a thriving little town with lovely little shops and obviously proud of its local history. Well-kept and clean it was a pleasure to walk around. The museum is excellent - well laid out presentations on different aspects and characters of the town's past and some interesting videos. The beach is beautiful too and well worth a visit. Plenty of choice for where to eat. We had an excellent dinner at The Eagle and lunch next day at the lovely Sandstone Cafe. Highly recommend both.

Strathpeffer is a very attractive small Scottish village.

Strathpeffer is a very attractive small Scottish village. For the size of the village it has four perhaps five good places to eat. Numerous old trees included a couple of giant redwoods usually found in America. Very relaxing place to spend a few days. It's also is a good touring base allowing you to go North, South, East and West.

We only spent an hour there on a Sunday so it was difficult to judge as very few things were open. I would suggest that there are nicer towns nearby. However, there is a petrol station and an art gallery plus a little supermarket. The little Natal garden is sweet and it is possible to walk along a promenade near the water.

Very peaceful by the sea and well kept grounds, finding it was a mission but once there enjoyed the views and stay. If you are looking for a jacuzzi they haven't got one, but thoroughly enjoyed the trip nature walks and beaches nearby and got lucky whale/dolphin watching on a boat trip from ullapool. Had a nice family time.
