  • Hi thinking of booking with you but would just like to know the distance from your Inn to the John o Groats car park bus stop? Can I get a bus or can I walk?

    Hamnavoe is on the A99 road and a bus service from Wick passes the door. The driver will stop outside front door if requested. If coming from Thurso the bus stops at end of road car park( 1200 yards) ,or at Seaview Hotel( 600 yards). Best wishes.

  • Hi, we're looking to come and stay at john o groats. The write up on booking.com says that bed linen and towels are extra. I just wanted to check whether this is correct? If so, what's the cost and how is this paid. It'd be for a couple for one night. Also do you cater for gluten intolerance?

    Hello, Nothing is extra, all linen etc is included. I have tried to get Booking.com to change this for over 7 years without success! Yes I can cater for guten free on request. Best wishes, Gordon

Host Info

Host Review Score 9.4

Hamnavoe is situated in the village of John O Groats, overlooking the Pentland Firth to the Orkney Isles. John O Groats Ferries provide Day Trips to Orkney from the harbour(0.5mile) , from May until end of September, as well as Wildlife Cruises in the afternoon. Nearest rail connection is Wick(16 miles) or Thurso(20 miles). The nearest airport is Wick John O Groats (16 miles). The world famous Stacks of Duncansby are less than 3 miles away, and the Late Queen Mothers home, Castle of Mey is only 6 miles.

I returned to John O Groats 14years ago, having first been here 43 years earlier , when I managed the John O Groats House Hotel , at the very" end of the road". Having brought my family up here in their younger years, I could not think of a better place to return to in semi- retirement.

I am more than happy to help you plan your holiday in the area, and offer advice on places of interest nearby. My aim is for you to have an enjoyable experience in the Far North of Scotland.
