Lovely B&B with super hosts

Lovely accommodation and super hosts in the small B&B, very handy for the NC500 route. Big Scottish breakfast was delightful. Safe parking and easy access to the A386.

Great place to stay!

Richard & Jane run a great place. They are warm & friendly, breakfasts are incredible (especially the coffee!), & the rooms are spacious & comfortable. We liked that they used local items to decorate. That adds a lot of character & charm!

Tour of the Highlands

Richard and Jane are the perfect hosts. From the moment we arrived to the minute we drove away 2 days later. The room was huge, spotless and so comfortable. They were on hand for advice on where to visit, eat out or just there to reassure us that we were welcome in their home. The best way to describe our stay is that as we left it was like leaving friends or family. We felt like we could have stayed on. But we had a schedule to follow. We would Definitely stay again.

Excellent B&B

Wonderful stay, we felt welcome as soon as we arrived - great hosts! Very dog friendly! Room was spacious and comfortable, so lovely to have a bath after a long day. Breakfast as excellent, our daughter loved picking what she wanted and said it was her favourite place we stayed all holiday!

Everything excellent: welcome, room, breakfast, place. A little gem. The owners Jean and Richard are amazing people.

Richard and Jane are very special people who go way beyond the normal service provided by a B&B. It was sad having to leave because we have so much in common.

Stay here!

Wonderful stay with fabulous hosts! We don't normally stay and B&Bs but after this visit we will do so more in the future. GREAT room with king bed, huge bathroom with tons of natural light, all very clean. Breakfast defies words - so yummy. Best of all - two black labs!!

Excellent all round

What an amazing place to stay. A little outside of Thurso but totally worth booking. The hosts are so welcoming and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. A b & b should have a good bed and a good breakfast, as that's what you're looking for. Aurora excel at both. Such a comfy bed and a great nights sleep and the breakfast is very highly recommended. Try the baked eggs, you won't be disappointed. We're already planning a return visit

Exzellente Unterkunft nahe Thurso. Es handelt sich um ein kleines Privathaus mit mit liebenswürdigen Gastgebern. Jeder Wunsch wird von den Lippen abgelesen. Sehr saubere Zimmer, modernes Bad. Das morgentliche Frühstück ist unschlagbar. Jederzeit wieder!

Aurora B&B was the nices place ive stayed in years. Jane and Richard are wonderful people! Jane saw how exhausted we were and despite our fairly late arrival went above and beyond in the first 5 minutes to help us find dinner. The property was beautiful, clean, quiet, and safe! The beds were comfortable and breakfast was 5 stars. We are so happy we stayed at Aurora B&B! Will do so again at our next opportunity!
Kristy, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The hosts were very nice and went to the trouble of getting us a reservation at a local hotel restaurant for dinner. The breakfast in the B&B the next morning was excellent showing the effort that Richard and Jane put into their guest’s experience.
