Caithness, the most northerly county on the British mainland, is a land of contrasts with vast areas of grouse, moor, deer and forest in its southern reaches and green fertile agricultural land throughout its northern half. In its heart the much publicised Flow Country lies, where some of the rarest plant and animal life in Britain can be found.  The southern border is ringed by the impressive peaks of Morven and the Scarabens. All along the coastline the scenery is dramatic with towering cliffs and secluded coves, and excellent roads follow the coast and weave across this small county, linking Bilbster Mains with any area in under an hour.
