When sailing into Scrabster Harbour, you might feel like royalty, as for several decades Queen Elizabeth II disembarked here from the Royal Yacht Britannia to visit The Queen Mother at her summer holiday estate, the stunning 16th-century Castle of Mey. Today, visitors are invited to tour the castle and grounds, which on a clear day offer sweeping views of the Orkney Islands. The 1826 Old Pulteney Distillery is the Scottish mainland’s northernmost distillery, housed in a series of enchanting, stone-build structures, and the thatched-roof Laidhay Caithness Croft takes you back in time to the lives of 18th-century Scottish farmers and features a delightful tearoom.
