Area
John O’ Groats is undoubtedly one of the best-known places in Scotland, and every year this
North-East tip of Caithness sees a procession of "End-to-Enders" making the long journey to
Land’s End. John O’ Groats itself is very much a focal point for tourism, and the village
boasts two hotels and a guest house, a campsite, numerous B&B establishments and a number of
craft shops and studios. As well as being a destination in its own right, it is also a springboard
for trips across the Pentland Firth via the famous Short Sea crossing to Orkney. Although Tourism
brings an extra prosperity to the area, there is a strong and welcoming local community, with a
wide range of social and cultural activities, and the area is well served with all the usual
amenities, including an excellent primary school locally in Canisbay, with a roll of about sixty,
and a modern medical centre.
