"The property was nice and clean. Parking was easy, right on the property. Located right on the beach and footpath, so the ocean view was nice. The owner supplied all of the usual conveniences in the kitchen and bath. I was concerned about the Alexa device that seemed to be always listening, so we unplugged it. The radiator beside the tele was emitting an electronic signal, but I could not find the actual source. We were unable to operate the heating, so it was a little chillier than we expected....

"We really felt right at home as soon as we walked through the door. We had everything we needed to cook our meals, close to sites, as well as the most delicious pizza delivered by our host! Highly recommend ordering from them if you stay-and order the Cheeky Scotsman pizza👍 Beautiful ocean view in a quiet town, walking trails along the beach.

Top Helmsdale Hotel Reviews

Altnaharra Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A very quiet and private place to stay, especially as there aren’t many other options or facilities nearby. You’ll mainly need to rely on the hotel’s own restaurant, but luckily the dinner was very good and we really enjoyed it. The staff were also friendly and helpful. A great choice if you’re looking for somewhere peaceful and away from the crowds."

Links House at Royal Dornoch

10/10 Excellent

"The Links Hotel is beautiful, well decorated and comfortable. We stayed in the newer building and when we walked into our room my first response was how much I loved the colors. Our room had a view of Royal Dornoch Golf Course. The bed was comfortable, the sitting area very nice and situated to the view. The huge bathroom was spacious and luxurious. We arrived to two little glass bottles of an Auld Fashioned with shortbread—yummy! There is an espresso machine and tea service outside the rooms on the second floor for all to use, a mini fridge full of cold waters and chocolate bars on the shelf. Breakfast is included and was quite delicious. We highly recommend The Links!"

The Bridge Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"We chose the Bridge Hotel as a stopover on our way to the ferry at Scrabster. The hotel is in a lovely period building just opposite the old bridge/river. We were greeted by a roaring real fire in the characterful entrance/lounge. It has a grand feel with lots of interesting cabinets /curios and prints on the walls. Our 2nd floor room was spacious with good views to the hillside. The was plenty of choice in the breakfast room next morning. A perfect stopover..."

3 bedroom accommodation in Lothmore, Helmsdale

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great 3 weeks â€¦ stunning views and a great cottage â€¦ wished we couldâ€™ve stayed longerâ€¦ a very well equipped kitchen with an abundance of crockery to use â€¦ the fires were amazing on a cold eveningâ€¦ and the sky TV was a great addition too â€¦The only negative comment was the lack of storage in the bathrooms â€¦ maybe a couple of shelves on the walls to store toiletries would benefit the cottage"

A Quirky 1-bedroom Basement-level Fisherman's Apartment

10/10 Excellent

"Fisherman's Rest was exactly what we were hoping for. We needed somewhere to stay in Helmsdale while we waited to get the keys to our new property, and needed it to have internet speed fast enough that my husband (a programmer) could work. This comfortable cottage had everything we needed! The kitchen was well-equipped, and meant we didn't have to eat out 3 meals a day. (Which gets old, really quickly for me.) The bed was comfortable, as is the furniture in the living room. "
