Thurso sits at the very top of mainland Scotland, where the North Sea meets the Atlantic and ferries push off toward Orkney across the Pentland Firth. Once a Viking trading post, the town now offers a mellow base for exploring the far north, with a handful of solid hotels for travellers passing through and cosy cafes for warming up after a walk along the harbour.
