Our stay at Burnside Cottage was amazing. Kacey was the perfect host, welcoming us when we arrived. The bed was comfortable and the shower great. In fact, the room was very well designed. We had everything we needed, including some really lovely organic soap and lots of hooks in the bathroom. Especially important for us, there was a fridge in the room. A lot of thought has gone in to making sure guests are comfortable. Dinner and breakfast were outstanding, the best food we had been served so far in our trip. I would not hesitate to book again if we get the opportunity to return.
Featuring garden views, North Point Pods (north coast 500) is set in Thurso, around 3.8 km from The Castle Gardens of Mey.

Excellent in all aspects. Very well thought out Welcome Pack - take the time to read it through.
Communication with the owner was above and beyond anything we've experienced at other rentals. That personal touch sealed the deal for this 5 star rating.
Location is great. Good views from anywhere along the coast. We particularly enjoyed Duncansby Head Lighthouse and Stacks.
We were also lucky enough to have a clear sky on the first night and got some aurora pics which cast a special glow over the memories we made during our stay.

The proprietors Euan & Emma were excellent company and very attentive to guests' needs. The hotel had an excellent menu with accompanying wines, beers, spirits, if required. The hotel also had an extensive range of locally-produced spirits. The accommodation was excellent and well-equipped. The only down-side was the lack of TV reception - although being without TV was somewhat of a blessing!
Emma and Euan had only got the keys at 3pm the day we arrived. They were perfect hosts, nothing was too much trouble and the Dinner and breakfast was really nice . We were honoured to be two of their first customers. We will certainly recommend the Castle Arms Hotel and will definitely return one day . Wishing Emma and Euan all the very best in their amazing adventure . Thank you too for recommending Rock Rose gin 🥂
Mey is a lovely spot. We used it for the Pentland car ferry to Orkney. Easy to find, plenty of parking, house is a tardis! We had a front room, large with a generous sized wet room, the view from our room was over fields and we had a perfect sunset.
Graham has put as many useful items in room as possible and more for cleaning bikes, cars - whatever. Breakfast was nicely cooked and generous. Super friendly host.
Excellent hosts. Everything provided for a more than comfortable stay, they provided everything you required for a stress free visit to the area. Location was close to a hotel which served beautiful meals and breakfast in the bnb was more than adequate. Truly a dog friendly place to stay everything was provided for their comfort also with two lovely dogs on site. Would not hesitate to rebook if in the area again.
The hosts were very friendly and helpful. The Mey Hotel has a very nice tearoom and restaurant on site which was very nice and the food was good. The location worked for me, although it is a bit of a drive from Thurso town center, but close to other sites that were more important to me!!! The layout of the hotel is charming and the outdoor space I am sure is lovely when weather is permitting.
Absolute gem of a B & B. Amazing warm welcome, so informative and nothing was too much trouble. Made you feel so at home and were very helpful in getting us a dinner booking at late notice at the hotel up the road. Added bonus we could walk to it! Lots of added extras for you, it just felt like everything was thought of with their guests in mind.
Lovely big house, great spacious drive. The owner was friendly and accommodating . He had a wonderful patter of one liner jokes! Lovely room, clean and tidy. Very covid safe! The breakfast was wonderful. All round lovely place to stay very close to the Castle of Mey and the ferry to Orkney. Well worth the money - in fact a real bargain for good quality
Welcoming hosts, great location and views. Lovely breakfast. Advised on where best to get photos of area.
Relaxing place to take a break from a very long journey to Orkney! The Mey Hotel for evening meal just a short drive away, that was exceptional and glad my hosts had recommended them to me.
This was our 3rd stay at this hotel which should be an indication that we like it. It is a charming place, ideally situated for visiting Orkney or just travelling the NC500, both of which we have done. The hosts ate extremely helpful and obliging and the food is delicious.
Classic little Scottish hotel with bar, restaurant and comfortable rooms. Good food for dinner (reservations strongly recommended!). Nice full Scottish breakfast. Lovely hosts. Would definitely stay again if in area. Better deal booking directly through hotel.
I wanted to visit the Castle of Mey and John O’Groats and this B and B is in an excellent location to do this. The hosts were so welcoming and the use of the lounge in the evening for relaxing was great
Great little hotel, clean comfortable room, brand new bathroom with bath. Big tick! Friendly staff, good food in a great location with a wood for the dog to explore.
