Externally the property occupies a generous plot and is accessed through a private road. The garden grounds are well maintained with a feature pond, raised flower borders and a meadow garden. There is a Rhino greenhouse, with areas of lawn and off road parking for numerous cars.

This is an excellent family home which would make a superb bed and breakfast due to it's close proximity to the NC500 and the world famous John O'Groats. 

John O'Groats itself is a well known tourist destination with several restaurants, cafes, and a convenience store/post office.  People living in the area enjoy the coastal walks, wildlife and local outdoor pursuits such as football.  Canisbay is a short drive away, where the local primary school is located and also the medical centre.  The Royal Burgh of Wick is a sixteen-mile drive from John O'Groats and is the most northerly town on the East Coast of Caithness and is on the very popular North Coast 500 (NC500) tourist route.  The town offers multiple stores such as Tescos, Boots, Superdrug, Argos and B&M as well as banks and a post office.  The house is within easy driving distance of all amenities, including the Caithness General Hospital.  There are many leisure opportunities including a popular golf course, squash club and public swimming pool/gymnasium. Wick also boasts an airport with links to Aberdeen and Edinburgh.  There are also good rail and coach services, with the property also being close to ferry terminals with frequent daily services to Orkney.
