+We definitely enjoyed our three nights stay at the Northern Sands :) Our "deluxe" room was really large, all was pretty new, the bed was very good, and we had all comfort we needed. The stuff was very friendly. The breakfast was excellent: You could choose to either have Scottish breakfast, different fish&egg, or different pancakes together with cereals, toast and fruits. Not to forget the large selection of draught beers at the bar! The hotel is an ideal starting point for tours along the northern coast. We also did surfing at Dunnet beach, which had perfect and easy to catch waves, while we were there. Surfing lessons and SUP tours could be booked nearby; surfboard and wetsuits hire is possible as well. Great days - Thanks a lot!

“Lovely room, great food, and exceptionally friendly staff”
+We honestly had such a lovely stay here! Right from the start, the staff were incredibly polite and friendly, and it was such a bonus that our room was completely ready for us the second we arrived. The room itself was a great size and the bed was so comfy that we got a brilliant night's sleep. Plus, you can't beat a really great shower! We ended up staying in for dinner and the food was beautiful,perfectly cooked and really generous portion sizes. We also loved the fact that breakfast is on a pre-order system, which made the next morning feel so relaxed and seamless. We truly loved our stay and would definitely go back

“Belle découverte”
+Personnel extrêmement agréable et accueillant. Nous avons passé deux nuits dans cet hôtel, le premier matin sans électricité. Tout le monde s'est débrouillé pour nous préparer un petit déjeuner de bonne qualité dans une ambiance chaleureuse. La chambre était spacieuse et agréable. L'hôtel était impeccable, très propre et bien décoré.
−Rien, nous avons passé un très bon séjour.
