Pet-friendly holiday rentals in John o' Groats

Once again. Our second visit to The Noddle. Top review for this wonderful property. Lots of quirky lovely additions to the decor. The hosts fabulous artwork on the walls throughout were a delight. All we needed was at hand, and plenty of room for all 6 of us on our mahjong game tour. Clear instructions for all the carefully maintained heating units and other electrical appliances and all wall switches/sockets clearly labelled. Lovely maintained house and garden-including the 'secret garden'. A great decking with comfy chairs to sit in the sunshine and listen to nature... and count the bunnies! What more can I say.? Thank you Tony and Penny for letting us stay in this wonderful place.

We had a magnificent stay in Alness. Beautiful surroundings and the home was a real treat to stay in. Enjoyed learning about the local history and taking walks in the area. Love to return!

Fantastic place we booked while up in the area, will book again, thankyou!

My friends and I loved the space and light and comfort of the Kirk. We came all the way from Norfolk on trains and ferries and fell in love with the land and seas and community of Hoy. The peace is deep here ... no background hum. I love to see the sea around me. We cycled over to Rackwick Bay which was exhilarating and went to cafe church at Emily's which was connecting. Thanks so much I hold these islands with me now. From Jen

The house and everything about it was excellent. Great location and close access to one of our favorite hikes on Orkney…Mull Head. Did a number of other forays to classic sites. None really far and the drives were beautiful. All the furnishings were top notch. Wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommended!

There aren’t enough words in English or Gaelic to describe how much myself and my friend/support worker LOVED .. staying @Brough Farm @ South Ronaldsay … i Love rural isolation , waterways, wild walks , seabirds and cows, stone walls and buildings ✅✅✅✅✅✅, not necessarily in that order … the capacity to self cater , with resources easily sourced from Stromness and Kirkwall , including fresh sourced fish , lamb , beef etc … have a bath after a big days walking and sleep in comfy beds , obviously adds to the bliss .. and then the cherry on the cake of our 10 night stay … was of course our timing was perfect for the Orkney Folk festival … which was sublime … Two Australians … left very sad .. from ‘our’ Orkney Island home … Mel and Graham were the bestest hosts .. and I’m deeply grateful for all of Grahams patience with sharing his farming knowledge about the darling cows and calf’s .

We had a lovely stay at Catherines place. Very cosy with wood burner. Beautiful peaceful surroundings.......would happily stay again. Our only difficulty was that it was a little difficult to find as the post code indicated you had arrived just after Turing off the main road....it was about another km from there. There was no sign at the end of the farm track to indicate the you had arrived at the correct cottage.....and no instructions about the key safe until we phoned Catherine( who was then very helpful)

The Old Coast Guard station is a fantastic place to stay and as a base for the NC500. The house is recently renovated to a high standard, is very clean/fresh and has the most beautiful views of the bay and harbour. We traveled with our pup as it is very dog friendly with an enclosed garden and lots of places and beaches to walk nearby. Helmsdale is a nice village with local shops, pub and restaurants only an hour from John o Groats and minutes to lovely beaches. Undoubtedly one of the best holiday homes we have stayed - the views from the balcony are amazing.

Great place, spotlessly clean and well maintained. We only stayed overnight though since on our way to the Orkney Islands. The ferry port is just five minutes drive away and five minutes drive out of Thurso.

Our second stay and would 💯 recommend this beautiful place if staying in the area. Thank you.

What a lovely area to start your tours from you can go east or west and find plenty to do aswell of all the local locations The accommodation had all you needed we have already inquired about coming back

The location and surrounding area is excellent, had breakfast while lambs jumped around. Accommodation is perfect and spotlessly clean. Check in was very easy and although we didn’t see our host, she communicated with us perfectly.

A beautiful modernised cottage. A lovely place to stay. A great trip.

Great flat in centre of Wick. Lots of space to relax and good amenities in the kitchen

What a delightful cottage with stunning views. So peaceful and relaxing. The hosts were exceptionally helpful. We had a great time and throughly recommended this cottage. Dog friendly was a bonus too.

lovely, peaceful and clean place in the country. hosts were helpful and friendly. enjoyed our stay

Beautiful house and gardens wirh private lake. Had everything you could need and more. House and surroundings was immaculate and was the pefect location for a relaxing family getaway.

A peaceful stay in the clean and well decorated birdbox during lambing with views over the strath. We took our corgi Nana along who loved laying on the grass listening to the birds and sheep. There were plenty amenities available to prepare meals. The hottub was very cosy even as temperatures dropped. Easy to access the north coast to go sightseeing.

This is a really unique stay and I spent a good part of my time there looking out at sea wondering when I would next be able to come back. So that should tell you how much I liked it! It’s at a lighthouse, so as you would expect, it’s at the end of a long road (which is very bumpy in places!). Then you get to the cosy house, with a wood fire, and well stocked kitchen with welcome treats. Alan is very friendly as are the dogs and the chickens! My child loved feeding them every morning. The fresh farm eggs were such a treat. Cantick Head itself is stunning and we loved being in the hot tub and sauna. Note to other guests- all these are wood powered so stock up on firewood before you arrive (you can buy bags at the shop next to the Lyness ferry). My mum took one of the bikes out and we all enjoyed walking the coastline. This is a special stay, don’t hesitate to book!

myself, fiance and our 3 fur babies had the best time! 2 nights just didn't seem long enough! the pod was immaculate, it had everything we could ever need as well as bowls and towels for the dogs. The hot tub was just perfect and we loved our cow neighbours! what made it even more great was Yvonne, she gave us plenty of ideas on where to go and the best places to visit with the dogs. Nothing was too much trouble! We will definitely be back again in the near future 😊

Can’t describe how beautiful the location is . The house is so beautiful and the view is breathtaking . We were welcomed by golden rays of sun and a rainbow . Sarah is the loveliest and warmest person I have ever met . She personally helped us know everything about the house. The kitchen is very well equipped. Kids room was so much fun with colourful lights , they had so much fun. Due to lack of time we couldn’t enjoy the hot tub and many more things like walking down the shore or the area. We just laid down and soaked in as much as we could. Overall this stay was amazing and definitely made our NC500 memorable.

Absolutely fantastic location, with fantastic scenery nearby. Had some wonderful walks, literally behind the property. The BBQ area was fantastic like the hot tub. I can’t say much more, but I will be looking to return ASAP Matthew is a fantastic host and nothing seems to be too much of a problem. Loved the place, oh and the Highland cows are awesome.

Beautiful location only stayed for one night due to our plans we could have stayed longer and if we return will definitely rebook

This is a wonderfully quiet place but within easy walking distance of the town and facilities. Exactly as described comfortable and spotless, the host provided excellent instructions and directions. Enjoyed our time there. Loved the peace and quiet but also found plenty to do in Wick, we would recommend the Heritage centre and the family history section at Nucleus both with very friendly staff.
