Durness

Overview

Durness is the most north-westerly village on the British mainland.

Scattered around a string of sheltered sandy coves and grassy clifftops, Durness straddles the turning point on the main road as it swings east from the inland peat bogs to the coast. Nearby are Smoo Cave, a gaping hole in a sheer limestone cliff, and beautiful Balnakiel beach. Durness is also the jumping-off point for rugged Cape Wrath, the windswept promontory at the Scotlands north-west tip..
