Huisjes in Thurso

I'm finding it difficult to put into words what being a guest at Cantick Head was like. Magical, inspiring, cozy, peaceful, safe. The cottage is beyond charming. It was tastefully decorated with little bits of history scattered about. It was absolutely spotless clean with comfortable beds and linens that smelled heavenly especially after a day of hiking the nearby trails. A nature and animal lovers paradise. Alan and his family go above and beyond to ensure you are happy. I found the experience to be quite moving and was saddened to leave. Alan is an example of what an outstanding Airbnb operator is and Cantick Head is a top notch accommodation. The price was very reasonable for the experience of being at Cantick Head. Overall, 11 out 10!

The Lodge more than met our needs as a base to explore the northern highlands. The many creature comforts helped to make us feel truly at home. The weather was so kind for the time of year allowing us to make full use of the hottub at the end of long days exploring. Our children couldn't get up early enough to "help" feed the neighbouring Highland Coos. We can't wait to come back next year to see how much they have grown.

Stunning location. The ideal get away for peace and quiet. Eimear and Mackie were great hosts and extremely accommodating. Could not fault the lodge, full of thoughtful finishing touches. Will be coming back again in the future. Thanks again. Marc and Gemma

Super séjour dans les Orcades. Notre bateau est arrivé tard et nous avons pu profiter d’un panier d’accueil à notre arrivée. Logement moderne fonctionnel et chaleureux à la fois. Parfait pour notre famille de 4.

We had a lovely few days in Mike’s cottage. It had everything we needed and was just a short drive from Kirkwall. Everything was clean and fresh. Mike left some essentials in the kitchen such as milk, bread, cereals, teas,coffees and biscuits which was appreciated! Would definitely recommend.

Probably the best Christmas we have had for a while. All the stress taken out of it by the hosts, the house was beautifully decorated for the season, two wrapped presents and a hamper of goodies. We felt thoroughly spoilt! The cabin is exquisite and we would love to come back. It was wonderful for the dogs too, completely fenced in around the cabin so no fears of escapees! We loved everything about it!!

Our stay at the Steading was wonderful and relaxing, with beautiful views of the coast and a very cozy interior. Jacqui was there to greet us and show us around, which was much appreciated. The Steading is well located for excursions to both the northeast and northwest coast. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there!

We loved our stay in Brora. The house was well located with comfy beds and a well stocked kitchen. Walking distance to all amenities and would highly recommend a trip to Capaldi’s.

What an absolute dream of a place to stay. Recently fully renovated and it is simply stunning. Minutes from the center of Wick and just off the NC 500, Drumdry was an ideal base for exploring the far northeastern corner of Scotland. The cottage was situated among beautiful farm fields and our son loved saying hi every morning to the sheep outside. And I can’t say enough how wonderful the owner is. She not only was so friendly and welcoming when we arrived, she also thoughtfully brought us a bunch of toys for our son to play with and feel more at home. I literally don’t think you could ask for a better host. Indeed our whole experience at Drumdry was so lovely it has reset the bar for what a 5 star stay is. I couldn’t recommend a stay here highly enough!

Great location, cottage was clean and well presented. It's looks exactly as pictures. Great Host all around, definitely would return again

Had a great stay in such a beautiful spot. What views from the kitchen window. House and garden grounds were great for the two dogs and the grassed enclosure was perfect. Everything we needed including an outside den. Beach minutes walk away. Loved our stay.

Perfect cottage for our family holiday in Brora. Beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. Had everything we needed and added bonus of a great garden which our kids thoroughly enjoyed. Perfect base to explore the area from. Comfy beds with great pillows!! Fire in living room provided instant heat when needed after spending all day outdoors. The kids have asked if we can come back every year so we will be back! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Lovely cottage/bungalow set in a glorious position. The property is kitted out with everything except your wellingtons and if they knew your size they would probably have organised those as well! Would highly recommend staying in this property, we did not meet the hosts but there is a book that lists their contact details and details about everything else you could possibly need. Hope to visit again in the not too distant future.

I don't even know where to begin with our stay...It was amazing and Joyce was the best host you could ever wish for! Walking in to the croft to freshly baked bread was just absolutely amazing, don't know how she does it but that bread is delicious! The house has everything you could need and more for a stay with lovely little touches. The view, omg that view it's to die for. I could sit out all day looking at the water. House is immaculate!! Genuinely Joys was absolutely amazing with us and went over and above, we cannot thank her enough. Would highly recommend a stay...you won't want to leave

A perfect stay, beautiful home and helpful host!

A lovely, cosy cottage, perfect for what I needed whilst working on the island. Thanks so much for having me stay, I’ll definitely be back!

The 5 of us had a wonderful stay at Park Cottage. It sounded lovely on the listing but actually exceeded our expectations. Cosy, very clean, comfortable, very cute cottage in beautiful surroundings and a short drive to Kirkwall. The bus also stops right outside if needed. Kitchen well stocked with basics and welcoming cookies for our arrival. Very good communication with Ronnie. Thoroughly recommend this cottage.

Great location with lovely views onto the beach. Beds were comfortable and lovely fluffy towels provided. A good location as a base for walking with our 2 daughters.

This is the second stay at Elizabeth’s place and will always come back, clean, character, beautiful area and comfy beds (extremely important!!!). There should be more stars 🤩

We can only wholeheartedly recommend Ian and Barbara's place. They are wonderful, warm, and extremely helpful hosts. We have spent many holidays in Scotland, and they rank on top of the list. Actually, having them around from the first hour, we felt like being invited into their family. This is perhaps their greatest give to any guest. Thank you, Ian and Barbara.

We had an amazing stay! The owners were so hospitable, and their friendly dog made our visit even more enjoyable. The scenery was breathtaking, with sheep grazing peacefully nearby. The house was very cozy and had everything we needed to feel right at home. Highly recommend!

This house was spacious for our family and we all enjoyed the sunroom. A wonderful space! The location was central along the north coast for our family to visit many places along the NC500. The kitchen had many basic supplies when we were there, including oil, coffee/tea, salt/pepper, sugar, and other spices. When meal planning, the oven takes significantly longer to bake. Local maps and guidebooks were very helpful like finding a beautiful, quiet beach at the end of the road. We would stay there again.
