About this area
Thurso is located  on the most north eastern part of the very popular North Coast 500 Route. There is a huge amount to see and do in Caithness and Thurso is often host to a number of surfing competitions throughout the year.  Caithness is also home to the awarding-winning Old Pultney whisky and the ever growing and award winning Rock Rose gin. The geological features of the coastline feature roaring sea stacks, colonies of sea birds and vertically faced headlands jutting out into the wild waters of the Pentland Firth. There is a wide range of primary schools, a high school and a college. There is a regular bus service throughout Caithness, and the train operates regional services. The Wick John O’Groats airport which is 21 miles from Thurso operates a daily flight to Aberdeen and Edinburgh.
Registering your interest

All our homes in Wick and Thurso are now allocated through choice based lettings through the Highland Housing Register. This means that instead of waiting to receive an offer of housing, you will make a bid for the properties you are interested in by responding to an advert with a completed register of interest form. The home will then be let to the person who has registered an interest and has the greatest need.

Our properties available now will be updated whenever there is a new property available and you will have until 2pm on the fifth working day after it was advertised to register your interest. This process has been introduced by all the housing providers in Caithness to give applicants a greater choice. You must have a live Highland Housing Register application to register your interest in a property.
