The former hotel Jan De Groot originally built his house in 1497. He ran a ferry to Orkney and charged 4 old pennies (less than 2p) a trip. The coin of this denomination subsequently became known as a Groat. The John o' Groats House Hotel was built on the site of Jan de Groot's house and was established in 1875. Now the former hotel is closed. This picture appears in the following picture tours: Camera Make: SONY Model: DSC-W200 |

First and Last in Scotland John o' Groats is a village in the Highland Council area of Scotland. Part of the County of Caithness, John o' Groats is popular with tourists because it is usually regarded as the most northerly settlement of mainland Great Britain. It is though, one end of the longest distance between two inhabited points on the British mainland, Land's End being the other. The actual most northerly point is nearby Dunnet Head.
