We absolutely loved our stay at Retreat on the 500! Lilias and Tommy were excellent hosts and made sure we were as comfy as possible. The room was perfect, very clean and cosy. Breakfast was cooked by Lilias every morning and it was delicious! We also got excellent tips about places/sites to see along the coast and to top it all off, Sally, their little Cavalier King Charles was always around for cuddles! We cannot recommend this place enough! If you are in need of a place to stay on the North Coast, do not hesitate to book them!

Location was close to John O’Groats and very comfortable. The hosts were fantastic - very friendly and helpful and we had a great cooked breakfast of our choosing.

Needless to say it exceeded my expectations. I was allocated the King size room and it was most comfortable. The breakfast was exactly what I requested. The friendliness of the owners was much appreciated, especially after a long drive up through Scotland in the driving rain.

We were traveling to Orkney and you were very handy for the ferry, only around one mile away. The view from the B&B was fantastic

We had a very brief stop, arrived late and left quite early. Lilias was very accommodating. Our rooms fitted our needs very well with a 3 generation travelling group. They were spotlessly clean and comfortable. There are beautiful views over the sea - very tranquil. Breakfast was very good for the adults with a good choice that is pre ordered the night before. My children would have liked some cereal and apple rather than orange juice (that was a minor point). Lilias was very helpful at breakfast, giving us some really helpful local knowledge of the area and our drive ahead.
