This place is outstanding. Our room did have a view of the castle, very comfortable twin beds, the bathroom and bedroom were very clean and nicely outfitted. The breakfast had the usual offerings; cereals, fruit, yogurt and a hot breakfast cooked to order. The hosts were very friendly!

Ladies running the B&B are lovely and welcoming. Place is clean, tidy and well kept. We stayed in room 3 and the A castle room upstairs. Both were lovely rooms. You can tell they put pride into the B&B and that is nice to see. We also had breakfast in the morning which was great before a long journey ahead of us and you could have as much as you wanted (within reason of course). All in all it is an excellent place to stay if you’re in Keiss or nearby. We were doing the NC500 so it was a great overnight stay for us!

We arrived at ACastle View on a wet evening to be welcomed by Christine. She is the perfect hostess without even knowing it!! Very comfortable house & delicious breakfast. We all thought it was superb.

Very clean and comfortable b&b with everything we required. Christine was very engaging host and she and her colleague gave us one of the best fried breakfast I've ever had. Would definitely recommend to others.

This b&b is an absolute gem on the upper east coast. We stayed here for the last night of our trip round the nc500 and could not fault it. It is a lovely modern building with beautiful views over the coast. Maree was a fantastic host and breakfast was superb - we wanted for nothing. Would thoroughly recommend and hope to stay again some time.

Maree runs a really nice B&B. The room we had was spacious, very clean and nicely decorated. The nightly rate is very good, particularly with the excellent full Scottish breakfast that was provided. All round great place to stay.

We stayed here on our tour of North Scotland coast. This lovely gem of a place is situated just a few miles from John o groats & about a mile from the village keiss. The rooms were clean & welcoming with selections of tea/coffee/biscuits in the room, tv etc, the host was very friendly & helpful & the breakfast was amazing as were the views. Would highly recommend staying here if you're driving the nc500 or just holidaying near John o groats.

A charming, relaxing, incredibly clean and warm stopover on my North Coast 500 trip. Great night sleep in a very comfortable bed, amazing breakfast (don't be afraid to ask for an extra black pudding). Peace and quiet and a homely atmosphere.
