About Helmsdale

Helmsdale, a village on the east coast of Sutherland in the Scottish Highlands, offers visitors a glimpse into the region's rich history and natural beauty. Once a thriving herring port, Helmsdale retains its maritime character while providing modern amenities for travelers exploring the rugged coastline and scenic landscapes of the far north.

Having a rental vehicle in Helmsdale is essential for discovering the diverse attractions of Sutherland and Caithness. This region features spectacular coastal scenery, ancient archaeological sites, and remote villages that are inaccessible by public transport. A rental vehicle provides the freedom to explore these scattered attractions at your own pace, venturing off the beaten path to discover hidden gems.

Helmsdale itself boasts a rich history, with its heritage museum chronicling the village's past as a major herring port and its role in the Highland Clearances. The Timespan museum and arts center offers insights into the region's history, culture, and natural environment, while the village's harbor provides opportunities for fishing and boat trips.

From Helmsdale, a short drive north brings you to the dramatic landscapes of Caithness, with its vast open spaces, dramatic cliff formations, and pristine beaches. The Castle of Mey, once the beloved Highland home of the Queen Mother, is easily accessible by car, while the Grey Cairns of Camster and the Hill o' Many Stanes offer glimpses into the mysterious Neolithic past of the region.

To the south of Helmsdale lies the scenic coastline of Sutherland, with its rugged cliffs, secluded coves, and picturesque villages. The dramatic landscapes of Dunrobin Castle, the ancestral home of the Dukes of Sutherland, are within easy reach, while the Falls of Shin offer a chance to see salmon leaping upstream during the summer months.
