Beautiful, welcoming B&B

A lovely warm welcome, beautiful decorated room, the most comfy bed of our whole trip, a stunning guest house with a lounge and a snug. Host was so accommodating for breakfast, we requested 7:30 as we had a ferry to catch, this was not a problem, porridge was made to order and delicious, continental selection was varied with plenty of options for every one. It was a shame we only stayed for one night.

A very friendly welcome from the owner so no complaints there. The room was not well lit but comfortable. We felt the breakfast was fine but basic.

Don't overlook this perfect B&B on your NC500 trip

Great overnight stay in a really beautiful house, pleasant host and nice breakfast. Walking distance to superb beach . Eating places a bit limited in Castletown, so book ahead of you can.

It was a fairytale-like experience!!! We felt like noblemen at a wondrous weekend outing! Beautifully refurbished periodhouse, great hospitality, delicious breakfast made with love according to our choice! And all that reasonably priced! If it weren't for the distance, we'd go there once a month. Very recommendable to all Britain fans who have always dreamed of escaping into a veritable "Homes&Gardens" retreat

A period property but well maintained. Love the elegant decoration and comfortable room. Victoria was really helpful and kind. She waited for our arrival despite it being past her working hours.

Greenland House B&B on the NC500

Amazing stay at the Greenland House B&B. Our host was professional and attentive to details. Breakfast was delirious. Our room had a private bathroom, it was on the 1st floor (in America we call it the 2nd floor), it was clean and comfortable. The B&B was tastefully decorated and beautifully maintained. It is located on the NC500, easy to find, located near too many tourist attractions and historical sites to mention!

Kept in original condition. A mirror in the bedroom would have been nice and hooks to hang clothes would be nice too.

What can we say but “Thank You” to the wonderful Victoria who greeted and treated us with warmth and consideration aplenty. Greenland House was so much more than we expected, with its charming architecture and exquisite furnishings & decor. Victoria was an exceptional host, and her sumptuous breakfasts supplied us with enough energy to keep us going throughout the days exploring the wonderful sights that this part of Scotland has to offer. We would both highly recommend Greenland House B & B to anyone looking for a true Scottish experience. Oh, and don’t forget to head to Dunnet Head to check out the puffins!!!

A Fantastic Place to Stay!

The Greenland House was quite the find for us. The rooms are spacious and clean. The large historic home it is in is wonderful. The location in Castletown - close to Thurso - is fantastic. So much more peaceful than staying in Thurso. However, the real gem of this place is the proprietor, Victoria. She is kind and wonderful. Gave us great recommemdations of what to see and do and where to eat - all of which were spot on! She was also very accomodating of health comditions my wife and I have. If we are up near Thurso in the future we will definitely go back.
