The Mey Hotel, hotel in Mey

Formerly called The Castle Arms, The newly refurbished Mey Hotel is a 19th-century coaching inn and Visit Scotland award winning hotel just 8 miles from John O'Groats, in the village of Mey.

Stayed as part of our NC500 tour blessed with beautiful weather. Nice relaxed hotel just 8 minutes from the amazing Dunnet beach and a similar distance to the Gills Bay ferry to Orkney and convenient for John O'Groats. Good reception and friendly towards us and our dog. Only one eating room and we were allowed to take our dog to breakfast there. Had a memorable 'tasting menu' on the second night which was a bonus. Although the dog wasn't allowed in the restaurant for that particular event some other very kind guests looked after him for us in the lounge. Room comfortable. Decent shower. Would be the choice to stay again if in the area.

Burnside Cottage, hotel in Mey

Featuring a garden, Burnside Cottage is situated in Wick in the Highlands region, 19 km from Sinclair's Bay and 3.6 km from The Castle Gardens of Mey.

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.

    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!

    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.

    The hotel is in an ideal location for visiting this part of Scotland, either the NC500, close to Castle Mey, or for a visit to Orkney. It had just been taken over by new owners who were extremely friendly and welcoming. It has beautiful grounds and comfortable rooms overlooking the garden with outdoor seating and the food was excellent.

    This hotel was the highlight of our honeymoon trip around Scotland. The hosts were lovely nothing too much trouble. And they upgraded our room due to my husband's height. A fantastic place to stay and eat - a bonus being the lovely Haggis at breakfast

    Breakfast was the perfect full Scottish, loved it! Great location for Castle of Mey and Duncansby Head, both of which we enjoyed immensely. Nearby Mey Hotel provided a superb evening meal to compliment Graeme and Eileen’s excellent accommodation.
