Information about the host

18 Wilson Street is centrally located near to bars and a supermarket and less than 5 minutes walk to the beach. It has recently been renovated and everything in the place is brand new - apart from the piano and piano stool! It is simply decorated and all the furnishings are top quality to ensure your comfort during your stay. The artwork and photographs in the property are all by local artists and photographers and some pieces are for sale. We can also put you in touch with the featured artists if you would like to visit their studios. We aim to be as eco-friendly as possible, so please try to follow the recycling instructions and use the eco-friendly cleaning products provided. This is a pet friendly property. There is a single bedroom downstairs where you are welcome to have your pet sleep with you. If your dog sleeps on the bed let us know as we have doggy bed linen available for that room. Unfortunately pets are not allowed upstairs in the two larger bedrooms. On the bright side clean and dry dogs are welcome to join you for a cuddle on the sofa in the main living area! A dog crate is available on request. The grassy front garden is enclosed by a low fence.

My wife Katrina and I are freelance musicians based in Thurso. We run caithnessmusic, a social enterprise promoting health and well-being in Caithness through group music making. If you are a musician and interested in joining in with any musical activities in Caithness while you are here do let us know and we can fill you in regarding opportunities: handbell ringing, choirs, Big Band, orchestra, brass band and more...... My profile picture was taken while I was working with an orchestra we get together every August for a long weekend of music making - visit the Caithness Orchestra Facebook page to find out more! We have endeavoured to make the property as dog-friendly as possible because we have a strong commitment to our local dog rescue service, KWK9 Rescue and we regularly foster dogs for them. Dogs visiting 18 Wilson Street are welcome throughout the downstairs area which includes kitchen, living area and a single bedroom. I am a keen cyclist and will be happy to share local information with visiting cyclists. We live two minutes away so if you have any questions or need help with anything during your stay we are just on hand.

18 Wilson Street is in a quiet residential area very close to the town centre, the river and the beach. Thurso is a great centre for exploring the far north of Scotland and we will be happy to give you ideas for places to visit during your stay here. There are brochures for local attractions in the property and the Venture North website has lots more information. The property is 12 minutes walk from the railway station and it's possible to have a lovely holiday in Thurso with no car as there is so much within walking distance of the house. From here you can explore Wolfburn Distillery, Old St Peter's Church, Thurso River walk, clifftop walk to Scrabster and Holborn Head, Harold's Tower and Thurso Castle, Thurso Beach, and all the amenities the town has to offer. You can hire a bike from Sam's bike shop which is just around the corner if you wish to explore further afield.
