Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Thurso

Gorgeous little cottage. Tastefully decorated giving a cosy feel that made you feel right at home. Has clearly been recently decorated. Stunning views from front door. Beautiful location. Very peaceful. Highly recommend!

This is a great location literally on the NC500. Quiet at night with stunning sunsets and sunrises. The bungalow has everything you need and it is lovely to sit in the sun lounge and relax after a day exploring. Garden is enclosed and safe for dogs. We were met on arrival by Steven and shown around. There are some stunning beaches locally and plenty to do for the three days we stayed. Highly recommend.

This was a lovely house and a good base for exploring Caithness. The house was well equipped, the beds were very comfortable and the showers were hot. The house was lovely and warm to combat the chilly weather outside! Our hosts were friendly and check in / check out was simple. There was plenty of room for the 10 people in our party. Our children particularly enjoyed the sand dunes at Dunnet Bay and rock pooling at Ham Harbour - even in the rain. There was a nice walk from nearby Lybster Harbour along the cliff tops.

A great place to stay for our mixed group of adults and children. The house was warm on arrival and very welcoming. We spent so much time in the kitchen / Dining room cooking meals and playing board games.

My colleagues who were staying here whilst working in the area passed on their positive feedback. They thoroughly enjoyed their stay here. Thanks again!

Really enjoyed our stay here. Amazing house with ample space for the 6 of us. Lovely surroundings. Peaceful. George provides logs & charcoal for the bbq & fire pit which was great! There’s also 6 folding camp chairs which you are free to use - they came in handy.! There’s outdoor seating & also a communal garden in addition to your own private garden space. The house was clean & comfy. Games room was a hit - we got in some darts practice which was a laugh & there was plenty time spent on the pool table too! All bedrooms are en-suite with one bedroom downstairs & 3 upstairs. Living room is large with 3 sofas. We definitely had loads of space. There was milk & butter in the fridge in addition to a lovely welcome pack of locally produced goods & breakfast cereals. George came to introduce himself & even gave us a wee tour of the neighbouring farm so we could see & hold the beautiful lambs.. really enjoyed our stay.

Good relax at the nice house!

Melanie’s house was a really lovely place to stay . It was cosy and clean and well decorated . She had left a thoughtful welcome pack of bread and milk. The location was great with Highland coos as neighbours and a beach right in front of the house . We found loads of Groatie Buckies there ! Easy to find and easy to get to other parts of Orkney . 10 minutes from the St Margaret’s Hope ferry . I would definitely recommend this house !

This place is special. We had stayed before so we planned and had a bbq in the hut. I swear you could do it with snow on the ground and it would still be toasty inside. The chalet is so well designed with no space wasted. Blinking love it.

Exactly what we needed for a night in Thurso when doing the NC500 - would definitely recommend staying at Richard’s place it has a relaxed community and welcoming feel. A nice modern take on the studio style Airbnb too :)

Great place to stay for work or a getaway. Would happily book this again

These pods were perfect for our family. It's about 15 minutes to John O' Groats and plenty to do around the area. Gillian sent recommendations for things to do and places to eat around the area which was super helpful. My son befriended the sheep that are in the field next door and spent hours out there feeding and petting them. Gillian also offers a range of extras to purchase including a BBQ package and grill kit which was all very delicious. Overall we had a great time and would recommend these pods to our friends!

We had an amazing stay at Louise and Bob's. The Old Byre was a perfect location for exploring the surrounding areas - lots of brilliant walks and beaches to explore. The area around the house is being re-wilded and will be exciting to revist at some point in the future! Very cosy living room with lovely log burner that was set up for our arrival. Lovely fruit scones were also provided which made it such a welcoming experience. Both Louise and Bob were friendly and welcoming hosts - they even put on the Northern lights for us 😄 Will definitely recommend their place to friends and family.

Great location, cottage was clean and well presented. It's looks exactly as pictures. Great Host all around, definitely would return again

We loved our brief stay in this cosy cottage. Although small, it is thoughtfully kitted out with everything that could be required. The location is stunning - beautiful views of the clear turquoise waters and the hills behind. We met nothing but kindness and friendliness from the people of Hoy, and especially from Kathleen

Not too sure what to say about this stunning house, other than WOW WOW WOW!!! If you’re looking for the perfect base for a group or family getaway, look no further (I looked far and wide before stumbling over Keiss Harbour House and what a find!!!) From start to finish, Jill has been a fantastic host. The house was exactly as described and even better than expected! We were completely blown away. We visited Keiss as a surprise 40th birthday trip with my boyfriend and 8 of our friends. We all agreed that this is by far the best stay any of us have had. There was something for all of us, walking, to beach trips, the beautiful local town of Wick, kite surfing, diving, john o’groats, lots of delicious food. A Tesco 10 mins down the road meant we were able to make great use of the brilliantly stocked kitchen, the stew cooked in the huge slow cooker provided went down a treat after a blustery day! We aren’t ones to return to the same destination but will definitely be back!

Myself with a group of friends stayed at Rob an Alison's place for 3 nights. Though it was 2hrs away from the starting point for the hike we came for (Ben Macdui), we chose to stay here due to the amenities it had. We found the place to be exactly as described; fully-functional, with the exception of one of the showers upstairs which ran lukewarm. That however, was not much of a bother and not worth mentioning had it not been for writing this review, given that afterthoughts of the property are overwhelmingly positive; the BBQ grill was easy to use and very efficient, whilst the hot-tub and nearby lake can make for a great Nordic spa experience. Rob and Alison are also fantastic hosts and responded extremely quickly to any queries, prior to and during our stay. Overall, I would highly recommend this place to anyone.

I'm finding it difficult to put into words what being a guest at Cantick Head was like. Magical, inspiring, cozy, peaceful, safe. The cottage is beyond charming. It was tastefully decorated with little bits of history scattered about. It was absolutely spotless clean with comfortable beds and linens that smelled heavenly especially after a day of hiking the nearby trails. A nature and animal lovers paradise. Alan and his family go above and beyond to ensure you are happy. I found the experience to be quite moving and was saddened to leave. Alan is an example of what an outstanding Airbnb operator is and Cantick Head is a top notch accommodation. The price was very reasonable for the experience of being at Cantick Head. Overall, 11 out 10!

A fantastic stay from start to finish! The cabin was exactly as pictured, cleaned to a high standard and has everything you could need and more inside. Yvonne was a fantastic host who was very responsive and provided lots of recommendations for things to do and places to eat.

We enjoyed our stay at Katrina’s Airbnb, she responded very quickly to any questions and we felt very comfortable in the house!

We really enjoyed our time here, the area is very different to the highlands where we were staying previously but the scenery really does have its own special charm. The house has everything you could ask for and a lot more besides! The master bedroom suite is amazing! The views across the sea from the house are lovely and we enjoyed walking to, and exploring the local little harbour and beach.

The Lodge more than met our needs as a base to explore the northern highlands. The many creature comforts helped to make us feel truly at home. The weather was so kind for the time of year allowing us to make full use of the hottub at the end of long days exploring. Our children couldn't get up early enough to "help" feed the neighbouring Highland Coos. We can't wait to come back next year to see how much they have grown.

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

A beautiful cottage with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The cottage was absolutely spotless and you can tell it is lovingly looked after. A lovely comfy bed so a great nights sleep was had. Would definitely recommend to others if they are ever in the area.
