I really like staying at The Pentland, ok it’s a bit old and draughty, it could probably do with a bit of tlc but it’s full of character and the staff are top class, super convenient for work too. If I’m staying in Thurso and they’ve got room then I’m staying there :-)

Staff were excellent and very friendly. Dinner and breakfast was good. Room was large but needed some repair. There must of been a leak in the bathroom before as the floor sweaked very badly and needed repair. Shower height adjuster was broken so was too low. Bathroom could of been cleaner.

Thurso stay
Located on NC500, so easy to find. Full breakfast was very good. Rooms were clean, but shower was interesting. Water just keep getting hotter and hotter. No elevator so hope you get a room on the first level.

Do not stay here
I requested a low floor since my wife uses a cane, but was put on 3rd floor. The bathroom had black mold in the tub/shower. There was no hot water in shower or in sink. The 3 of us could only do "sponge" baths. The food at breakfast was cold including the beans and eggs. Do not recommend staying here.
