discover the hidden highlands
"Forss House is a gem that I’m delighted to have discovered."
Fiona Duncan, Sunday Telegraph Hotel Guru
Forss House is a traditional 1810 country house hotel delightfully hidden amid 20 acres of wonderful woodlands, below a waterfall, on a loop of the gently meandering River Forss. One of the wildest places in Britain, whatever you do under the big Caithness skies, you will have all the time, space and fresh air you need to rejuvenate your batteries. Everywhere you go, you will meet Caithness folk and discover places where people still make time for each other. And when you return, our small local team are here to welcome you back to your beautiful Scottish home.
