northerly town, and is home to the country's most northerly railway
station. It is located on the north coast of Caithness, its seaward
views dominated by the distant cliffs of Dunnet Head to the north
east, and those of the island of Hoy to the north. Thurso has
long been a gateway to Orkney, with the well established ferry
