The Whaligoe Steps

Posted on

Just 10 miles south of Wick on the A99 there is a hidden gem. It's so secret that the Scottish Tourist Board don't even provide a sign post, The Whaligoe Steps. 
Over 300 steps are carved into the cliff side taking you down to a small sheltered cove. Herring were landed here and carried in baskets up the steep incline. If you are doing the NC500 it's well worth breaking your journey. There is a cafe at the top to revive you after dragging yourself to the top

The Old Manse offers B&B and self-catering accommodation. We are based near Invergordon and Tain and right on the NC500. Our accommodation is a listed building dating back to the 1780s featuring commanding far-reaching views of the surrounding Easter Ross countryside.

If you are looking for bed and breakfast accommodation near Tain, Invergordon self-catering accommodation, a B&B near Invergordon and Dornoch or simply B&B accommodation in the North of Scotland, please contact us.
