Greenland house, hotel in Castletown

Located in the quaint highland village of Castletown, Greenland house provides a garden and free WiFi throughout the property.

The house was quaint and wonderfully decorated with a sitting room and everything. The windows do let in a decent amount of cold air, but it is an older building and that is to be expected. With the curtains shut and the heat on you barely notice.

    Castletown itself is quite small, but literally on the outskirts of Thurso. While we were there, their one Morrisons had closed for a total refurbishment, so if you were looking for groceries or the like, you'd have to go a bit further. But the local hotel had a lovely restaurant and there are some other local shops that looked quite handy and nice!

    The breakfast buffet was amazing, especially for a quiet winter season. I booked a single room but got upgraded to a beautiful double room. Only the fan in the bathroom was a bit noisy and ran quite long after using the bathroom. The Wi-Fi worked very well, great TV with many channels and a very cosy bed. Very friendly lady at check in. Enjoyed my stay very much.

    Having most of my family there and knowing the area made it much easier for me to find my way around after being away for many years…. But overall an interesting village and surrounding area with excellent beach and miles of sand, also very picturesque

    Warmly welcoming hotel with cosy interior, good pub facilities, and friendly staff who were happy to oblige. Good place to stay for an ongoing trip or to explore the beautiful nearby beach, Mae Castle and for a ferry connect (1/2 hour drive). Good scenic coastal spots to drive to including the light house.

    Excellent and high standard provided throughout, from service to bedding to breakfast tables to provisions by hosts Richard and Jane. Best B&B we have stayed in so far, 3 weeks into our trip. Excellent breakfast menu, comfortable large room, and, large ensuite. Very accommodating hosts. A 2 minute drive to Castletown to the local Hotel, for an excellent dinner. Ten minute drive into Thurso. Separate lounge area you can relax in. Can totally recommend.

    Castle Town Hotel is an attractive hotel with great free parking, a nice pub, good food, and excellent service. I am glad I stayed there. When I arrived earlier in the day, I was able to stretch my legs and walk down to the harbor. I saw all of the incredible flagstone on the seashore and looked at old buildings left from when Castletown made its fortune in exporting the flagstone.

    This was a lovely old house with good parking. Our room was large, comfortable and warm with a good en suite. The breakfast was very good. We were able to walk into Castletown for an evening meal which is wecome after spending a fair amount of time driving. A six mile drive from Greenland House is the Castle of Mey, it was well worth the visit.

    The cottage was peaceful and cozy. The view of the bay and Dunnet Head was lovely. I hiked the cliffs of Dunnet Bay and Holburnhead. My phone stopped charging while I was there, and Chris from Caithness Phone Repairs was super helpful! He and, Jamie and George from PixelIT in Thurso. Jamie, thank God, had a wireless charger!

    The Hotel staff were friendly and attentive, particularly with helping my wife and young son around with the buggy when i was at work. The hotel was clean and the food was really really good if not excellent! The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. We will stay here again for sure!

    A lovely surprise. Such a stylish and comfortable place to stay with accomodating staff. A great place for surfing, birdwatching, or visiting the beautiful Castletown beach. For us, it was the staging point for the ferry to Stromness.
