Hi all, as a new comer to the Caithness site i hope i will not offend anyone with this thread. For the past few weeks we have been looking for houses to rent in the Caithness area and despite going through the adds on this site, (probably the best site i have ever seen by the way) plus contacting the local letting/estate agents, we seem to be having very little luck, most seem to be already let. We need a 3 bedroom property and would like a rural location however i think we would consider most locations now. I have also just started a subscription to the local newspapers (thankyou Golach), just wondered if anyone else has any helpful advice.....Thankyou Richard email address madandum@hotmail.com :).

Have you tried any of the local Property Agents in the county. I have heard "Polards" are very helpful.

Good Luck

Maybe someone who works at Dounreay would put something on the bulletin board. It's the next best thing to this site.
