A very charming, peaceful and immaculate B&B. The room offered a beautiful view of castle ruins and the bay with a private outdoor terrace. Marie was so thoughtful and made sure we were dry and comfortable having arrived in the rain on a motorcycle. Would have loved to stay longer had our trip allowed. Thank you to all who made the experience at Castle View a luxurious one.

Perfect stop-over before Orkney Islands
This was the perfect place for us to stay before taking the ferry from John O'Groats the next morning for our Orkney Islands tour. We arrived quite late (since we had to drive up from Inverness) but the B&B host was still very kind and accommodating. She showed us to our room, which had a patio with spectacular views of the sea and castle. I recommend trying to arrive before nightfall, otherwise you miss out on the beautiful scenery and it can be a bit disorienting finding the building in the dark.

One of the best B&B around, loved how you have your own patio doors leading out to the garden & beautiful views of the sea. Great breakfast and friendly host, s as no the cutest wee dog I’ve ever seen 😊

This property was beautiful, the owner Obviously put some money into it. Although back always from the road, it was well marked and not hard the find. There are beautiful views of the ocean and the ruined castle. The owner was very kind and friendly. Would strongly recommend.

Nice friendly B&B
Friendly and a nice place to stay. Nice and modern, they serve a great breakfast. My only downside was the Wi-Fi was weak but that’s a minor problem. Would stay again and highly recommend.

Breakfast with travelers
I was greated by Marie, She was wonderful and very helpful, she explained everything and was available for questions. The room was very clean with an amazing view of the cows and pasture and ocean in the distant. Marie made a delicious breakfast of scrambeled eggs and salmon for me. There were juices, teas and much more to choose from. I had nice converstions with other travels who were having breakfast. We compapred travel plans and they even gave me great tips of where to visit. I would certainly stay here again!

Nice big clean room. Great view. Good breakfast with generous portions. It would’ve been nice to have some drinking water available in the rooms but other than that a good place to stay.

Great location but ask for a big room.
We enjoyed our stay but have a couple of small niggles which resulted in my honest assessment. First was the sign in the room stating we do not do laundry and giving a fines list for misuse of towels and smoking. Better would be a note saying " Sorry, we don't have laundry facilities but there is a 24 hour laundry in Wick. Then, if necessary state that misuse of towels or smoking in the room will result in action against the culprits. Finally, room 3 which we were given is very small. There is no room for our bags or to move about. We booked several months ago and saw other rooms which were huge. We even asked to move rooms but we're told that was impossible despite people leaving daily. Breakfast was excellent.
