Start Inverness End Inverness
This ride has a mixture of roads, from
the more fluent roads of the A9 and the
A835 to the smaller single track roads (with
passing places) of the A836 and A838, the
landscapes are spectacular and there is
culture in the form of John O Groat’s
and, more importantly, the Highland hospitality.

The Melvich Hotel is situated on Scotland's
northern Seaboard. A comfortable but informal
Country Hotel with a Cliff Top position
overlooking Melvich Bay to the Island of
Hoy and the Orkney mainland beyond. The
lounge bar with its peat fire has wonderful
views over the bay to Orkney. There is also
a games room with a Pool Table adjacent
to the Public Bar where you can experience
true Highland Spirits!! The large garden
allows guests to take in the breathtaking
sight and sound of the surf form the bay.
An ideal stopping point after visiting John
O’Groats but before the delights of
Tongue and beyond. |
