Lindisfarne Bed & Breakfast, hotel in Stromness

Featuring views of Scapa Flow, Lindisfarne Bed & Breakfast is a detached house in a rural location near Stromness. Free WiFi and free private parking is available on site.

The only slight quibble I have that the address was a little hard to find. A sign just off the main road would be helpful.

Aultnagar Accommodation, hotel in Stromness

Set in Orkney and only 14 km from Maeshowe, Aultnagar Accommodation offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking.

The property is well located and about a 3km walk from the centre of Kirkwall. The property was very clean, well decorated and comfortable. The owners live in the house but there is a separate entrance for guests and it felt very private. There was a range of cereals, fresh fruit and bread available for breakfast and the host also asked whether we would like pancakes; there was also plenty of sauces and toppings.

Grainbank Mews, hotel in Stromness

Grainbank Mews, a property with a garden, is set in Kirkwall, 16 km from Standing Stones of Stenness, 18 km from Ring of Brogdar, as well as 17 km from Ness of Brogdar.

Thank you to Albert and Aileen for a wonderful stay at Grainbank Mews. The room was beautiful and sparkling clean, with a delicious breakfast prepared for us each morning. Great location, just outside Kirkwall and a couple minutes' drive to all the shops and restaurants. We were really curious about life on Orkney, and Albert was very kind and informative, even pointing us in the direction of the 'Orkney Dictionary' (which I bought!) This place is a treasure and we would love to stay again the next time we are in town.

    Lovely spacious house, spotlessly clean, beautiful view. Host was very helpful when the internet wasn't working - very nice lady. A bit of road noise first and last thing but was quiet overnight. Never heard the neighbours. Great location for all the Neolithic stuff. Highly recommended.
