I stayed at Hillside for 2 nights while taking part in the Cape Wrath Challenge. Jill, Tony & Ellie really went the extra mile to make my stay very enjoyable. The rooms are spotlessly clean, plenty of choice for breakfast and the atomphere in their home is very relaxing. Can't thank them enough and I am sure I will return.

We recently had a one night stopover in Hillside on a cycle tour of the North West highlands. We arrived quite early in the afternoon but that wasn't a problem for Tony and Jill. Once Tony had stored the bikes for us Jill made tea with home made lemon drizzle cake. Tony took the time out to explain the various... More

We stayed here for 3 nights on a touring holiday in April. The house was very comfortable and spotless and the breakfast very tasty. Tony and Jill were extremely friendly and helpful, Jill's lemon drizzle cake was lovely. The area is a great place to visit and if we ever came to Durness again we would definitely stay here.

My inlaws and family spent a night with Tony and Jill. They were very friendly and made us feel right at home. We had great conversation with Tony, and our 3 year old daughter just loved the place. The house was modern and spotlessly clean. The breakfast was tasty and more than enough. If we are in the area this... More

I booked up a twin room for myself & a friend after scouring TA for somewhere to stay. Hillside B&B seemed to be the most popular by far & seemed the obvious choice. I'm so happy with the honest reviews from the users of TA, Tony & Jill didn't disappoint with their friendly warm welcome into their home. The house... More

We enjoyed everything so much that already planing next visit. Place was very clean, rooms large and cosy and breakfast delicious. It seems that Tony and Jill are putting all their harts into it.

There's a reason why this place now has 49 excellent reviews. Actually, there are several in fact but the main reason is that the people that run it and their attention to every aspect of the services they provide are superb. They even went out of their way to return a pair of trainers we had left behind to the... More

We booked well in advance per email. After our email exchanges, I felt then that already Tony was a friend. Some months later when we finally met, I found this to completely correct ... and then added Jill and Ellie to the list of friends. The room, the lounge, the breakfasts, the welcome, the care and helpfulness ...all so excellent.... More

Equal best of 20 B&Bs stayed at en route from Lands End to John o'Groats. Combination of room size, separate large lounge, comfort, quiet, hospitality outstanding. Since it was cheapest of all 20, we rate it best value of all. We were travelling by buses - if you are, ask to be put off near Smoo Cave not in centre... More

A quick note to say that we stayed one night at Hillside, while enroute from Skye to Orkney in Sept (2011). The room was terrific, clean, very accessible. This was built to be a B&B, the ensuite is large, modern and spotless. I really liked having a lounge area to relax in before bed. The breakfast is very good, and... More
