Location
An underrated part of Scotland. Situated just next to the most Northernly point of the UK, we are right next to some of the most amazing beaches Scotland has to offer. Thurso is a short 10 minute drive away and we are slap bang on the NC500 route. Wick is a 30 minute drive away and John O'Groats just 15 minutes. Our fabulous neighbours at Dunnet Bay distillery are just around the corner (Rock Rose Gin) as is the beautiful Dunnet Head Lighthouse. This area has so much history and stories to tell and we can recommend so many places to visit.
Dunnet Head and the surrounding northern tip of Scotland is one of the best places in the UK to see the Northern Lights (Aurora Borealis). As the most northerly point of the mainland, its high-altitude cliff views and minimal light pollution provide excellent, unobstructed views north over the Pentland Firth to Orkney.
