2013 Scottish Jaunt: a revitalised John O'Groats

 The restored John O'Groats Hotel

Enjoying the luxury of a Natural Retreats self-catering residence right at the end of the road at John O'Groats. The old hotel which was very run-down and falling into decay has been beautifully restored and self-catering units developed. Very well appointed and equipped with amazing views over the Pentland Firth to Stroma and Orkney – enhanced by the glorious sunsets we've had so far.

The huts have been carefully sited and spaced out
