Just 3 miles from Thurso, mainland Scotland’s most northerly town, Valleyview House offers stylish accommodation and high-quality breakfasts. Styled by its interior designer owner, this B&B provides free parking and WiFi.

the quaintness and decorating of the B & B was beautiful and it was very clean. The proprietor, Antoinette, was very friendly and welcoming. The traditional Scottish breakfast was the best breakfast that we had our entire 9 days in Scotland (her husband, the cook, is a chef). Antoinette was correct when she said we wouldn't find another potato scone like theirs - simply the best. Then we were able to meet (and feed) three of her Highland Cows - Apple, Toffee and Joe, which was a highlight of our trip - what my daughter and I call a WOW. At the end of each day, we rank our daily travels by POW (low point), WOW (high point and CHOW (best meal). The Valleyview House go both the WOW (meeting and feeding the cows) and the CHOW (breakfast). And we loved their three dogs: Rowan, Willow and Molly. All three are well trained and very affectionate. Perhaps the best thing about Valleyview House is Antoinette. She is knowledgable about the area and gave us directions and sightseeing ideas/options and things to watch out for. My highest recommendation.

Felt like a home, able to relax in the loungeroom after dinner with log fire burning. Delightful! Fantastic amenities, lovely little touches like the pillow spritz to help sleep & a cosy hot water bottle. Beautiful grounds and a short stroll to a great local pub for dinner as recommended by the host.

    It was very clean, very modern. You have all the dishes there you could possibly need, the beds are very comfortable! Shower gel and hand soap felt very luxurious and smelt very nice! The hot tub overlooking sea and some amazing cliffs, very peaceful and quiet. You can reach shops like Morrisons and Tesco within couple mins drive. We are already thinking about booking again cause it was just amazing stay and the scenery is beautiful ❤️ Thank you for such an affordable and luxury stay !

    Stayed for one night, great location just across from the beach with walking distance to shops & restaurants. The hosts (Karen & Michael) have tastefully restored the property bringing warm & charm to the place, as well as being fantastic at making us feel at home and served up hearty breakfast that kept use going all day long. Highly recommended! Just a note the twin room has private (big) bathroom that is outside the room off the hall/stairway - some may prefer taking some slippers.
