The location was very relaxing and quiet. Such a pretty outlook. The lounge was a lovely place to quietly read and we enjoyed the books and magazines on offer. The staff were friendly and chatty. A wonderful experience and well worth the stopover. I would thoroughly recommend staying there. It was such a treat.

We had an amazing stay at Hawthorns b&b. The hosts made us and our dogs feel super welcome. They gave us a lot of tips for sightseeing and made nice conversation. The room, bed, and shower were very good as well. We had a beautiful view of the fields from our room, and in the morning, we had a great homemade breakfast. We would definitely come back! Thank you for a lovely stay!

The views were incredible, and enjoying the firepit in the brisk Scottish weather was a treat in and of itself. Communication was super fast and responsive! It was super cozy, the cabin was clean and stayed warm despite the wind and the rain. Really made our honeymoon trip around Scotland something special!

John O Groats is a very small place. which sort of has to be visited if your in the area. I wouldn't rate it as a destination if it wasn't for the fact its the northern most point on mainland UK

The John O'Groats visitor centre has a range of shops and eateries aimed at tourists. The parking fee is £3.50, but you can stay all day. The cafes tend to close early - from 5pm to around 6.30. After that there is only the Seaview Hotel. The centre wasn't as crowded as I thought it might be and we were able to take photos at the iconic sign post. We took a walk along to Duncansby Head. It was too late in the season for nesting birds (no puffins!) but the views were spectacular. (See Wikipedia for more info.)

Room was sub standard, toilet kept blocking, could barely get in and out of shower as gap so small, window wouldnt close and room had no clothes storage and only one bedside table, very small and stuffy also. Would not stay here again

We were there the end of April and basically nothing was open yet. Our only dinner choice was a fish and chips food truck that stopped taking orders at 18,30. The cafe that serves coffee and food didnt open till 10,00, so if you need to leave before then keep it in mind. Other than that, it is a beautiful location, just from the pier we saw many seals and otters. The trip to the lighthouse and walk from there to the stacks was incredible, we saw a few puffins nesting in the cliffs. I wish we had had more time to explore the area and beaches.

The owner was lovely. Picked me up from the john o groats sign and dropped me off to start my walk in the morning, without charging. Breakfast was delicious, fresh fruit, juice, ciffe and a range of cereals to chose from. The room was big, heating was warm I saw a deer from the window, and the shower was nice.

So it was a bit of a puzzle to get the hotel key, you receive a name and code, it has a color scheme, we had SAND, something and it took us a bit to figure it out. Once in the room, a large space with living room, big bed, kitchen and a nice bathroom. Simply lovely and great view onto the Sea. Very peaceful.

Amazing location, a small walk away from John o groats / 2 minute drive away. The property had very secure parking and the owner was nice and friendly. The cottage itself has history which is interesting, and for the price you can’t go wrong

Both the cottage and the setting are lovely. Spacious and comfortable with everything you need. Lots to see and do in the area. The coastal path is lovely for an after dinner walk out to John o Groats and Duncansby Ness.
