The Hawthorns in Mey was everything you could hope for in a B&B guesthouse. We used it as a base for visiting the Castle of Mey (Queen Mother's Castle - excellent guided tours and tearoom), Wick (quirky but interesting Heritage Centre) and Thurso (fantastic 'Caithness Horizons' centre in former Town Hall). The rooms were very comfortable, well equipped and recently... More

We recently stayed for a few nights and were amazed at the excellent standard of the spacious rooms, the level of comfort, and the quality of the food. Teresa is a terrific cook and I can honestly say that her food is far better than many restaurants that I've visited. Not just the breakfasts, but her evening meals were delicious.... More

Only stayed 1 night before catching boat to Orkney. Teresa & Andy are great hosts. Very spacious room with the added bonus of a small fridge. Also excellent continental breakfast - home baked scotch pancakes & muffins - delicious. Highly recommend. More

We stayed at the Hawthorns for 2 nights to explore the northern coast of Scotland, but would have been happy to stay for a week! We were greeted warmly by Andy (a policeman) who showed us to our rooms and gave us all the information we needed. The rooms were spacious, nicely decorated, modern, clean and included a lovely, comfy... More

The Hawthorns was our last stop on the cycle ride from Lands End to John O' Groats and it was a wonderful place to round off the whole experience. The room was beautiful, the welcome warm, the food at breakfast was all home made and such a pleasure to enjoy. Thank you to the whole family. Teresa's love of food... More

If we offered B & B this is what we would aspire to. We felt welcome and at home at once. The other reviews say it all but we can add that the evening meal we arranged to have the evening we arrived was a real treat. More

Theresa makes every effort to take personal care of her guesrts, going to the trouble of learning (and using) their first names. The whole house is full of details and interesting things to look at, read and see (including an extensive library of books and DVDs). Breakfast was wonderful, home-cooked and individual. More

Teresa and her lovely family were so friendly and hospitable. Their home is beautiful, comfortable and welcoming - the attention to detail is superb and nothing seems to be too much trouble. Breakfast is out of this world - vast choice, all home made and utterly delicious. Ideally placed for The Castle and Gardens of Mey, stunning beaches, Orkney and... More

The Hawthorns fulfilled all our expectations. It has a lovely view of the countryside on the edge of the village of Mey. Teresa's charm and entusiasm created a perfect welcome to her comfortable home. She loves cooking and her delicious evening meals are carefully planned to your requirements in advance of your arrival. We enjoyed visiting the Castle of Mey... More
