Perfect location for the orkney car ferry
The perfect location if you want to catch the car ferry to Orkney. Literally 5 minutes away. Enough time to have breakfast and still make it with lots of time. Very clean and comfortable. Breakfast was fantastic. Awesome personal service. A great spot for star gazing if there's no clouds. Highly recommended.

This must be my favorite stay of any hotel/motel/b&b I’ve ever stayed at. Kacey is a true gem of a host and made sure that my sister and I had a great stay at her homestead/b&b. The communication leading up to our stay, the parking, the personal welcome, the design of the room and decor, the BREAKFAST! (WOW.) I wish I could have stayed at Kacey’s for the entire length of our trip. Definitely the best kept secret of the northern tip of Scotland!

Book it, you won't regret it.
Genuinely stunning. From start to finish, every aspect or our stay was fantastic. Great communication from our host Kacey, lovely welcome, beautifully decorated room (the Raven), comfortable beds, nice shower, lovely small touches like homemade biscuits. The food was divine. We also had an evening meal there and the salmon was one of the nicest meals I've had in a long time. We went for a lovely walk to watch the sunset and Burnside Cottage offered a couple of short walks to satisfy our need. We only stayed one night whilst driving the NC500, but I'd happily stay at Burnside for more if we needed to.
