Everything the character of the tower is amazing, the restoration work that has been done is fascinating and a credit to the owners the welcome at reception was delightful with a free sherry which was a nice touch

David, United Kingdom

The building itself was a real gem, an amazing large castle right next to the sea and beautifully, not tackily, restored.

Fantastic location with sublime scenery!! Made to feel welcome and all staff were fantastic.

Gary, United Kingdom

It's a beautiful property, well cared for. Excellent service at the reception and by the waiting staff. They have cozy lounges to spend the evenings and an elaborate winelist They don't have 24 hr. restaurant or coffee shop and you have to place meal orders well in advance. The good thing is, you eat fresh. The location is perfect! You absolutely feel the old world charm.

Ackergill Tower is a striking 15th-century castle just 27.4 km from John O’ Groats. This 5-star hotel provides traditional and elegant rooms set in 32 acres of grounds with free parking and a private beach.

Each en-suite room is individually styled and has access to free WiFi. The rooms show original features and all boast stunning views over either Sinclair’s Bay, the croquet lawn or the Heart of Caithness. The hotel also has several cottages which can house up to 10 guests.

Guests will be delighted in the spectacular wood-panelled dining hall by a decadent seasonal menu. The grounds and public rooms provide an elegant setting for any relaxed getaway to the Highlands.

Golf and fishing is available at a 10-minute drive, and on-site activities are also possible such as clay pigeon shooting and cookery demonstrations.

Wick Airport is under 10 minutes away by car, and Inverness is just under 4 hours’ drive away.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.6 for a two-person trip.
