“A former croft house, this B&B is in Gills, between Dunnet Head and John O’Groats. Rooms are homely and spacious, with wonderful views of the wild landscape. The Grey Suite has fun bunkbeds for kids, while The Pig Shed, a studio for two, offers self-catering facilities. An idyllic highland escape. ”
