The property was conveniently located for catching the ferry to Orkney Island. The owner/manager was very kind. We appreciated that he drove us to the ferry.

The owners were warm and inviting. We had a lovely pop up dinner with a guest chef that was great! Breakfast was also delicious and well prepared. Our room was cozy and we were near the seastacks at John o’groats as well as the catamaran ferry to Orkney. Great location, cozy atmosphere and relaxed vibe!

Kacey could not be a more accommodating host. She also prepared great meals for dinner and breakfast and was able to accommodate all special dietary request for our group. To top it off her entire facility is extremely eco conscious. I would highly recommend the Burnside Cottage.

The Shepherd’s Hut was such a stunning property, small but perfectly formed! Such a clever use of space to make it incredibly cosy, comfortable and welcoming. Debbie as host has clearly put a lot of care and attention into making it feel so special and was a great host, both with pre-stay communication and in welcoming us at the accommodation. Could not recommend this place highly enough, it would be a pleasure to be able to stay there again.

Very friendly helpful couple who made us feel home from home. Setting is lovely near the intriguing north coast with glorious skies. Delicious breakfast.
Great location if you want to go to The Orkneys. There are also many other locations close for sight seeing from here. The view over the Pentland crossing.
Staff were very welcoming and friendly with great advice on the area.

At the edge of Scotland, the gateway to the Orkneys or a sea tour. No facilities to speak of and the nearest Tesco is a 20 minute drive, so come prepared or just pass through here. The drive up is a hazard in terms of road maintenance. .

The rooms were not cleaned and the toilet was actually full of crap so we had to call them and they cleaned it right away. The staff seemed to be overwhelmed, and the bathroom was extremely small so for one night it was not bad but can't stay for a few more days. The rooms were very cramped and when you enter the door could only be opened partially as it hit the bed. The configuration of bed placement was poor. That said, the location of this hotel was excellent and the staff were very pleasant to deal with.

Stunning sea views which could be enjoyed from inside the property or out on the deck. Excellent facilities and well maintained property, cleaned to a high standard. Hosts were friendly and very accommodating. We were left alone to enjoy our break but had support on site when needed. Superb onsite staff. Our heating had stopped working but this was resolved quickly and didn't intrude on our short break.
There were some lovely onsite gift shops. There was also a cafe which we didn't have time to visit. There is also a small post office a short walk away with a few essentials available if needed. We prepared our own food and found the kitchen facilities and equipment in the kitchen to be fantastic.
I would have preferred less outdoor lighting at night to reduce light pollution for viewing the beautiful night sky.

We went for the walking and took the John O'Groats trail. As we went on Boxing day it was all closed, but there are a few shops there worth a look.
You can drive all the way and there is parking at £3 per day.

We enjoyed a boat trip whilst at John O'Groats even though we didn't see any dolphins or whales. The local brewery with attached bar was a great place to spend an afternoon.
We enjoyed a nice evening meal at the Seaview Hotel just two minutes drive from our accommodation.
There were a few tourist gift shops where you can stock up on all your gifts for friends and family.
There is also the famous signpost where everybody has their photographs taken.
the property was out of this world. especially for this price range! location was spot on. right next to the famous John O Groats sign. the interior of our apartment was outstanding! a very high standards. spotlessly clean. Stephanie the manager called us a few hours before our arrival, wishing us a safe trip and asking if she could get us anything for our room like groceries etc. we met the manager Stephanie the next morning and she was absolutely delightful. looking forward to staying there again.
Room was comfortable, clean & tidy with kettle, coffee & tea at hand ! Because of COVID restrictions. you ordered breakfast at reception, listing the time & what you wanted for breakfast, which was promptly ready for you to collect from reception ! Andrew the manager was a super star, as I arrived very late that evening. He left me clear instructions at reception as I arrived at 23:55pm !Everything was ready for me when I got to the hotel "Many thanks Andy" !
Location just on the outskirts of John O'Groats ideal for visiting the famous sign post. Fairly basic hotel in terms of decor but its clean and tidy. Staff very friendly and helpful. Had evening meal and breakfast and couldn't fault either. Would recommend the hotel.
John O Groats is not an interesting place but this B&B makes up for that .Our host was excellent and could not be more accommodating we enjoyed our stay here . There was a good walk/drive to the lighthouse with excellent photographic opportunities .
Amazing location, a small walk away from John o groats / 2 minute drive away. The property had very secure parking and the owner was nice and friendly. The cottage itself has history which is interesting, and for the price you can’t go wrong
Hamnavoe is ideally located for visiting John o Groats; it is comfortable and welcoming. Our host suggested a good place to eat in the evening and an excellent breakfast was provided. It was a great help that our dog was welcome, too
Host was really helpful and helped with a table reservation at the sea view hotel rooms were clean and comfortable the continental breakfast was more than adequate and only about half mile from John o Groats great location
Great location in John O Groats, easy to walk to the harbour. The room was very comfortable, and the bathroom was nice and clean. Loved visiting the animals, especially Betty and Mary! Breakfast was good too
The place is stunning and the hosts are fab. Brekky so good. Gail is lovely and goes above and beyond to ensure you have a lovely stay. If you’re staying in John O Groats then this is the only place to stay!
The Seaview is in a great location, overlooking john o Groats, and with views across to the Orkneys. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the rooms clean and comfortable.
It was nicely isolated but only 5 minutes from John O Groats and ferry terminal, restaurant just down the road.
Made to feel very welcome, highly recommend.
