Top Duncansby Head Hotel Reviews

Norseman Hotel

8/10 Good

"A nice hotel in a good location. Staff very helpful and friendly."

The Hawthorns Bed & Breakfast

10/10 Excellent

"The host and hostess were very welcoming and friendly. The room was spacious and clean. Parking was in the property forecourt. The breakfast was well prepared and plentiful. The only issue was finding somewhere to dine. The local hotel could not accommodate us on the two occasions that we tried. The nearest was either Northern Sands or Castletown hotel both of which were a number of miles away."

3 bedroom accommodation in John O’ Groats

10/10 Excellent

"The cottage was very clean and had all the equipment we needed. The mill was still undergoing renovation but didn't cause us any problems. The host was exceptionally welcoming and very knowledgeable about the mill and the area. It was great to know that the income from the cottages pays to keep the mill in good condition. The local hotel is dog friendly and does good food and dogs are allowed in the bar and restaurant. Stacks cafe and the brewery are also dog friendly. Tge cliff walks are beautiful and we really enjoyed visiting local beaches. Really hoping to get back next year."

Castletown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent hotel on NC500 route. Easily parked to rear of property. Helpful staff with big clean rooms and competitively priced dinner menu in restaurant. Breakfast was perfect to set us up for the days onward travel. We stayed in room 18 which was right next to the road on the ground floor. Was honestly a little noisy with traffic initially but settled in evening and we slept ok. Suggestions: King sized beds would be a good improvement as room is big enough. We were awoken by a group loudly chatting while waiting for a coach pickup outside our window at 7am, so would suggest hotel put a sign on window just asking anyone waiting to be mindful of customers sleeping."

Luxury Self-Catering Traditional Family Farmhouse in John o’Groats, Caithness

10/10 Excellent

"A perfect location for a week exploring the northern coast of Scotland. Cosy home with all the facilities you could need, along with a path taking you straight on to the shoreline. Bliss."
