1)
Strathnaver Museum, Clachan, Bettyhill:
http://www.strathnavermuseum.org.uk/
This is a really interesting museum and worth a stop to go and visit it.

Afterwards, if you are in need of refreshment, there is an excellent wee cafe right next door (you probably park in their carpark to go visit the museum!).
The Cafe at Bettyhill is like an oasis and wins hands down for friendliness. It serves as a watering hole for many 'enders', those who do the Lands End to John O' Groats trip.
Within the building is a Tourist Information Centre.
Thurso = 30/40 minutes by car, Tongue = 20/30 mins.
The cafe at Bettyhill with Strathnaver Museum beside and a glimpse of the sea.
A good double!
