The Castle of Mey is situated on the north coast of Caithness, in the parish of Canisbay, about 15 miles (24 km) east of Thurso and 6 miles (9.7 km) west of John O'Groats.
It stands about 400 yards from the seashore, overlooking the Pentland Firth and the Orkney Islands. HM Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother acquired the property in 1952 and saved it from ruin.
