9 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2026
Friendly helpful staff, clean and tidy room. Handy to have an EV charger on site
Property was all good
6 / 10Average·Jul 2026
The staff are great and the food delicious. I recommend eating in the restaurant. The location is easy walking distance to the beautiful Dunnet Bay.
I wasn't planning to swing a cat in my room but if I had, there was no room to swing a cat. I had the Smith room (he must have been a wee man - I'm not small) the room was cramped and the shower cubicle was too small to turn around in.
