“A very well appointed cottage, in a great location.
Host, Shona is very welcoming, friendly and helpful.
Our second stay there. Highly recommend.”
“Wonderful location near the harbour front overlooking the Peedie Sea. Very well appointed, comfy and cosy. Lovely large rooms. Great communication. We hired a car and visited multiple interesting historic places and enjoyed dramatic costal walks”
“Fantastic, well equipped apartment right in the middle of Kirkwall”
“Clean, spacious
Room for 4 adults”
“Location excellent. Beds and rotas very comfortable and kitchen well equipped.”
“Lovely pizza freshly baked by the host. It was also a nice quiet location.”
“Period property in conservation area. Entrance on pedestrianised street, with easy parking just across the road. Cosy flat - the electric radiators quickly warmed up the rooms and the combined lounge and kitchen made TV breakfasts and dinners easy. A very large clock on the wall was a unique feature.”
“This place is so special. The cottage was beautiful, clean, and stocked with local goodies and everything we needed. Orkney island, west mainland, amazing in many ways. We loved it here!”
“Well equipped and freshly decorated.
On main bus route to Kirkwall and Stromness.
Short distance from Gills Bay,St Margaret's Hope ferry.
Nice view over Churchil Barriers to the Italian Chapel.”
“Nice cottage, a bit dated but with everything you need. Comfortable bed, good kitchen”
