Excellent Northern Location

We traveled to Dunnet Bay on the recommendation of a friend and we were not disappointed, what an excellent northern small site located a few yards from the beach. Dianne & Bernie were amazing wardens, very friendly and welcoming from the get go. They introduced their 2 spaniels Willow & Woody to our 2 Clover & Daisy. They immediately made us feel at home and as though we were old friends. Simply a lovely couple who work hard to keep the site neat, tidy and very clean. Dunnet Bay is a small site but has all you need and is ideally located right on the beach and close to John O’Groats, Dunnet Head and the Castle of Mey. Dunnet Forest is a must see with various walks for different abilities along with some hidden treasures. I won’t say what, go see for yourself. Thurso is a short drive away too for supplies with a Lidl and Tesco. The Castle Arms hotel in Mey was an unexpected find for dinner on our last night. It was delicious and a good selection of ales and dog friendly. The only negative was the weather, not too warm and far too windy, the heatwave didn’t quite make it to the Sutherland Peninsula. That didn’t dampen our spirits and we both thoroughly enjoyed our 6 night stay. The dogs certainly loved running on the beach and through the forest despite the weather.
