You will love everything about Mey Bee.
The beautiful interiors make the most of the land and seascapes, and the gardens are unique and lovely - zen garden and private veg patch is a real treat..
Mey Bee is a gem of a cottage in the far north of Scotland enjoying views across rural Caithness and out to see to the Orkney Islands.
The owner has done a marvellous job creating this peaceful, attractive cottage from what was once a ruin.
Mey Bee is now a beautiful cottage and one that anyone staying in will wish they had more time in the place, it’s that lovely.
You may wish to book for longer than you think, you’ll be pleased you did so.
The setting is inspiring and calming.
Set within an acre of wildflower meadow the cottage sits under the large Caithness skies because the landscape in the far north is relatively flat, meaning that the views are vast from the cottage.
The cliffs of Hoy can be seen when clear and if the light is right The Old Man of Hoy can be made out.
Dunnet Head rises above the surrounding landscape., and generally sea views are enjoyed out of most windows of Mey Bee - thankfully, the owner has created window seats to enjoy said views.
Arriving at Mey Bee you’re immediately struck by the tranquillity of the place.
It has a calmness which is epitomised not only by the wonderful surrounds but also the Zen garden to the rear of the property.
Before going into the property, you’ll no doubt want to explore right round the cottage.
The owner has created lovely curving paths of local stone and little footpaths through the plot to explore.
There are many places to erect a tent as well if you wanted to spend a night under the grand skies and stars as well.
The front garden has a lovely sitting area, a vegetable patch for guests use, and a firepit nestled within the wildflower meadow.
It’s a beautiful place to be.
Entering the cottage via the back door there’s a utility room which is excellent for leaving boots and drying coats, as well securing bikes and other sports equipment.
There is a woodshed outside that also serves as a bike shed.
Beyond the utility is the amazing open plan living/dining/kitchen space.
There are two wood burners in here, one in the fireplace in front of the sofa, and another by the dining/kitchen area, the latter being the solid fuel central heating and also an extra oven.
This space also enjoys lots of lights coming in the windows with window seats, sea views are wonderful from here.
There’s a large bathroom with great bath, and the owner has thoughtfully erected large candles in here for guests to enjoy a peaceful, comforting bath.
And finally, the double bedroom is yet another relaxing space with two large windows bringing in the landscapes.
It’s a lovely, peaceful, comfortable cottage that you won’t want to leave once you’ve arrived.
However, it is recommended you do a bit of exploring of course.
The walks locally are tremendous, you can explore the coastline for as far as you wish in both directions from just down the road at the marvellous Harrow harbour.
The Castle of Mey is the neighbouring property to Mey Bee and can be seen across the fields from the rear of the cottage.
The NC500 is only a minute away so you can tour till your heart’s content to amazing sights across the north coast and northeast coast.
It’s a truly outstanding cottage to spend a week, two or three..

We really enjoyed our second visit to Mey Bee and would recommend it to anyone wanting a peaceful, relaxing break. There are lots of places to walk and enjoy the outdoors and the owner is very helpful with tips of places to go. Will definitely go back.
