So if you are looking for dog-friendly hotels and restaurants in the Highlands, come and stay with us.
North Coast 500
Mackays Hotel makes a perfect stopover for anyone undertaking the beautiful North Coast 500 drive. This route takes in the best of the highlands, from Inverness up through Wick and along the north coast before heading south. It’s a great experience, taking you to places you might never have explored otherwise. Rest up with us here and enjoy the gorgeous town of Wick.
We attended a function at Mackays to open the Mey Games 2019, the staff were superb and very attentive, the food (Buffet) was second to none, beautifully presented and fresh. Great choice of beers and whiskies, and very reasonably priced for a hotel, what more could we ask for? The Manager introduced himself and nothing was too much trouble – we’re looking forward to attending again next year.
Family Research & Genealogy
Find out about your family history
Many people come to Wick in order to research their family origins. Millions of people can trace their ancestors back to Scotland, and many of those here to Caithness.
It’s a fascinating and addictive hobby, and it’s one we love helping people with. We can help put you in touch with a local genealogist, as well as help get you access to Wick’s local library. We’ve also been running the hotel for 60 years, so if it’s insider knowledge about the area you are after, speak to us when you stay!
Whatever you are looking for in a Wick hotel – comfortable rooms, delicious food, helpful staff – you’ll find it here at Mackays. Book your stay today and start planning for your Highland adventure!
