About Ulbster
Ulbster is a small, dispersed crofting hamlet situated on the eastern coast of Caithness in the Highland Council area, within the parish of Wick. Located seven miles south of Wick along the A99 road, Ulbster is also just two miles from the historic port of Whaligoe, known for its impressive 330 steps carved into the cliff by Thomas Telford in 1786. This rural setting offers unique opportunities for planning applications related to conservation and development in a historically rich area.
There are currently no active flood warnings for the Ulbster area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.
In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Ulbster a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
