First of all Graeme & Eilean are the best hosts we have ever had. So warm and welcoming. Helped with advice of where to visit. I wish I could of stayed longer. The breakfast was fantastic and they went well out of our way to meet our requirements. The property is lovely in a nice quiet area, yet close enough to John O Groats, Dunnet, and Thurso. The rooms have everything you need. I will be returning again in the future certainly!!
