The location was superb as it is located along the main road. It is also very close to major tourist attractions. There was ample free parking space behind the hotel. Breakfast was nice with ample selections to choose from.

Jane and Richard have created a very comfortable and relaxing space in a beautiful environment. They had so many great recommendations, and so many thoughtful, personal touches that made our experience so enjoyable. Breakfast was perfect! Still dreaming about that stewed rhubarb. Thanks so much for making us feel so at home!

The Park Hotel - Where the atmosphere & surroundings are as welcoming as the food. Why not go all the way! To Caithness, the land beyond the Highlands and enjoy the hospitality at the Park Hotel.

Lovely hotel. Lots of free parking. Clean comfy room with a big bathroom. Good food lots of choice at breakfast. Friendly helpful staff who went the extra mile. We left our bank card in our room when we left but fortunately it was found by a member of staff who ran after us as we were just leaving the car park and returned it. So a big thank you for saving us the worry of having to cancel or look for it.
Centrally located hotel in the heart of Thurso, ideal for business or leisure travel.

I had warned the hotel I was going to arrive late, and when I eventually got there, they could not have looked more pleased to see me, and then looked after me royally. And that was how they continued to look after me. Hugely recommended! I don’t normally need looking after, by the way, but it was great that they did so!

Room was quite good, however the bed wasn't super comfy & the shower took a long time to get hot! The buffet was cold in the morning but did the job!

Castletown itself is quite small, but literally on the outskirts of Thurso. While we were there, their one Morrisons had closed for a total refurbishment, so if you were looking for groceries or the like, you'd have to go a bit further. But the local hotel had a lovely restaurant and there are some other local shops that looked quite handy and nice!

The breakfast buffet was amazing, especially for a quiet winter season. I booked a single room but got upgraded to a beautiful double room. Only the fan in the bathroom was a bit noisy and ran quite long after using the bathroom. The Wi-Fi worked very well, great TV with many channels and a very cosy bed. Very friendly lady at check in. Enjoyed my stay very much.

Having most of my family there and knowing the area made it much easier for me to find my way around after being away for many years…. But overall an interesting village and surrounding area with excellent beach and miles of sand, also very picturesque

Warmly welcoming hotel with cosy interior, good pub facilities, and friendly staff who were happy to oblige.
Good place to stay for an ongoing trip or to explore the beautiful nearby beach, Mae Castle and for a ferry connect (1/2 hour drive).
Good scenic coastal spots to drive to including the light house.

Excellent and high standard provided throughout, from service to bedding to breakfast tables to provisions by hosts Richard and Jane. Best B&B we have stayed in so far, 3 weeks into our trip. Excellent breakfast menu, comfortable large room, and, large ensuite. Very accommodating hosts. A 2 minute drive to Castletown to the local Hotel, for an excellent dinner. Ten minute drive into Thurso. Separate lounge area you can relax in. Can totally recommend.
The cottage was peaceful and cozy. The view of the bay and Dunnet Head was lovely. I hiked the cliffs of Dunnet Bay and Holburnhead. My phone stopped charging while I was there, and Chris from Caithness Phone Repairs was super helpful! He and, Jamie and George from PixelIT in Thurso. Jamie, thank God, had a wireless charger!
The Hotel staff were friendly and attentive, particularly with helping my wife and young son around with the buggy when i was at work. The hotel was clean and the food was really really good if not excellent!
The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. We will stay here again for sure!
The house was quaint and wonderfully decorated with a sitting room and everything. The windows do let in a decent amount of cold air, but it is an older building and that is to be expected. With the curtains shut and the heat on you barely notice.
A lovely surprise. Such a stylish and comfortable place to stay with accomodating staff. A great place for surfing, birdwatching, or visiting the beautiful Castletown beach. For us, it was the staging point for the ferry to Stromness.
Delicious breakfast, lots of freshly prepared fruits and an amazing array of local cooked products. Scallops and haddock for dinner were superb.
Staff relaxed and attentive.
Great stay at this well run hotel.
Thanks
Great hotel in a nice old house, renovated with great care and taste, great rooms, quality service from a lovely owner, great breakfast, a few minutes away from Dunnet Head, Castle of Mey & Duncansby Stacks. Loved it.
Castletown hotel is in a prime location if you’re doing the NC500, lovely view of the lake from attick room window, even saw some deers as we arrived.
Staff were very friendly and attentive.
Fantastic little hotel with great food available, really good and varied menu in the evenings and a great breakfast is provided.
Excellent parking available at the rear of the hotel.
Small but clean room, friendly staff, good location, water pressure in the shower was great ( it is a big deal since so many small hotels/ b&bs have such a poor water pressure).
