We arrived at the hotel around 10am as we had been travelling all night. The owner could not have been more accomodating, providing us with tea and biscuits until the room could be cleaned. The following day the breakfast was freshly cooked and couldn't be faulted. If you are visiting Wick or the surrounding area we would thoroughly recommend.

Whilst kerbside appeal is lacking a warm & genuine welcome awaits in this compact, clean & comfortable privately owned hotel. There is an ongoing refurbishment programme the results of which are apparent indicating a willingness to ensure guests are comfortable. Food plentiful and of a good standard. A credit to Scottish hospitality.

On arrival the hotel looked closed and abandoned; after the many positive reviews on tripadvisor we were a bit upset and ready to search somewhere else, when suddenly the owner appeared. He explained the hotel was in process of renovation but that rooms and restaurant were ready; Indeed, our room was clean and comfortable, the restaurant nice and cosy, breakfast... More

Very welcoming, friendly and helpful staff. Well-appointed accommodation - clean, neat, tidy with everything fully functional (shower, TV etc). Lots of parking space, so none of the city-based "parking angst". Good food with more than enough menu choice for a few days stay. Only drawback for me, as a light sleeper, internal doors are capable of being slammed by inconsiderate... More

Was recommended this from Ann and Robbie Flett at Corrigal B&B - good food and decently priced. Kids thoroughly enjoyed their food and there was enough on the kids menu to please even our pickiest eater! The scampi was lovely and fresh and there was plenty of it. Thank you.

What it does have is good highland hospitality ,friendly owners and top class staff. Donna and Colin are excellent hosts and cant do enough for you.

I came across this hotel when we wanted somewhere to stay when visiting the John o Groats area. At first i was a bit wary as it is in a small village. But during our stay all the staff went out of there way to make us feel welcome, and they went the extra mile to make sure our visit... More
