8 Jib Park, Finstown, hotel in Gorseness

Located in Finstown and only 5.3 km from Maeshowe, 8 Jib Park, Finstown provides accommodation with garden views, free WiFi and free private parking.

The door was unlocked and keys inside as the owner lives over the back of the property. Finstown is central to touring the mainland. The house was very warm with air source heating and the bed was also really comfy. No noise outside so I had great sleeps. The owner has thought of everything - even the welcome scones. - it’s a real home from home. And it was immaculately clean.

Aultnagar Accommodation, hotel in Gorseness

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.
