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.
Providing garden views, Hillside Camping Pods and Shepherd's Hut in Wick features accommodations and a garden. This campground provides free private parking and private check-in and check-out.

The room was spacious, well appointed and beautiful. The hosts were the nicest we've met on our holiday.
We liked how we were upgraded to a sea view apartment.
We liked how we were upgraded to a sea view apartment. The blue toft was lovely and clean with all the modern conveniences and nice and warm.
Close by was Gills Bay where we took a car ferry over to the Orkney Islands. Coastal walk was very picturesque with plenty of photo opportunities,
The souvenir shops were great, and people were very friendly and helpful.
We enjoyed our stay at John O Groats and would recommend it to anyone.

Great location if you want to go to The Orkneys.
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 had a great time here. The B&B is situated a 5 minute walk from the famous John O’Groats signpost, and 2 minutes from the Seaview Hotel (restaurant/bar). The room and bathroom were exceptionally clean and Cara was an amazing host. The breakfast was tasty, consisting of cereal, homemade bread and boiled eggs. The petting farm made it extra special.
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 .
The staff were amazing! Especially the receptionist who had only been there for two days. Such a friendly team. The hotel is under new management, 3 weeks to be exact, and still need to fully find their feet. I wish them all the very best.
1. Location was great. Rooms and facilities were excellent.
2. John O Groats has nice shopping and food stalls around now.
3. Excellent walks available from where we stayed.
4. The views were great, could see sunset from the room!
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
