Self-catering accommodation in Sutherland (Highland) for fishing breaks

Sutherland is in the far far north of Scotland, a former county absorbed by Highland Region that is riddled with small lochs that from the air, the landscape resembles a paper cut out. Few people venture this far north for a holiday, it's for the adventurous to whom a remote rural cottage represents bliss. The fishing opportunities are numerous although roads are few across the moor and heather-clad hillsides. This terrain is suited to an angler who likes a good walk and can find his way by compass.

Thurso is the main town borderfing the north coast. It has a railway station and the usual amenities that one would expect. For self-caterers, it is the place to visit to stock up on groceries or go out to the cinema or for a meal.

Head to the north of mainland Scotland for an escape from civilsation as we know it. Live the simple life. fish a little, eat and sleep. Perhaps visit John O'Groats since you're almost there anyway. How can anyone not unwind?
