Camster Cairns and Latheronwheel Harbour can be found just a few miles down the road. Next door is the Portland Arms Hotel, serving meals both in the bar and restaurant.
Wick is just 13 miles drive and 20 miles to Thurso.There are many hillwalking and climbing opportunities in the area as well as mountain biking through Rumster Forest. Horse riding can be arranged in nearby Halkirk.
There is world class salmon fishing, trout fishing in lochs and sea angling by arrangement.

There are so many beautiful walking routes in the area, it's hard to know where to begin.
