To help, we have asked the experts at North Highlands tourism specialists Venture North to see what exciting destinations they recommend in Caithness and Sutherland to impress the family. They've picked five great places to go this October half-term.
Venture North said: "This family farm magical adventure offers visitors a chance to get up close with animals in a picturesque setting alongside Thurso River, including meerkats, Highland cows, Valais Blacknose sheep, rabbits, free-range chickens and cockerels, blue-eyed Embden geese, Kune Kune pigs, Pygmy goats, Alpacas and Llamas. Explore, bring a picnic, take photos and make memories that will last forever.

Dunrobin Castle is also one of Britain's oldest continuously inhabited houses dating back to the early 1300s, home to the Earls and later, the Dukes of Sutherland."
