Hotels in Thurso

Hotels in ThursoThurso is a charming town situated in the northernmost part of the mainland of Scotland, nestled by the coast with picturesque views of the Pentland Firth and the Orkney Islands. As the northernmost town on the British mainland, it possesses a unique charm, offering both the tranquility of a seaside setting and the rich history reflected in its well-preserved architecture and ancient ruins. Thurso, with its Celtic and Norse historical influences, presents a harmonious blend of the past and present, manifested in its culture, architectural style, and the warm hospitality of its residents.

A visit to Thurso is incomplete without exploring its impressive local landmarks and attractions which offer a kaleidoscope of natural beauty and historic relevance. The Caithness Horizons Museum is a good start to understand the area's geology and Pictish history through a wide array of exhibits. The Old St Peter's Church, dating back to the 12th century, stands as a testimony to the long history of Christianity in the region. Moreover, the town is a popular spot for surfing enthusiasts owing to its considerable swells and waves, with Thurso Bay and nearby Scrabster Beach offering excellent opportunities for both beginners and seasoned surfers. Not too far away is the striking Dunnet Head, the most northerly point of the mainland which offers breathtaking panoramic views and is home to a diverse range of bird species. The nearby Castle of Mey, once the residence of Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother, offers a glimpse into the royal history, with beautifully maintained gardens and a chance to enjoy a royal afternoon tea.

Further southwest, the village of Helmsdale offers a beautiful coastal setting with its harbour and the Timespan Museum and Arts Centre, which chronicles local history. Towards the west from Thurso, the scenic route along the coast leads to the charming village of Tongue, offering stunning landscapes and a rich Gaelic heritage. Further down the west coast, one can explore the picturesque villages of Durness and Kinlochbervie, each offering unique natural landscapes and a tranquil setting for a getaway. Travelling southward along the west coast, visitors can reach Ullapool, a picturesque fishing village nestled on the shores of Loch Broom, known for its vibrant music scene and ferry connections to the Isle of Lewis and Harris in the Outer Hebrides.
