Everything. The room, the bathroom, the shower, the breakfast, but foremost the owners and their work re-habing the house and future plans. Very exciting!

Clean and modern, less expensive than anywhere else on Orkney, keyless entry.
Good place to use as a base to explore some of the Orkneys.
Good place to use as a base to explore some of the Orkneys. The cathedral is stunning and worth a visit to Kirkwall (if you are in the area) just for that. Sadly, no coffee shops seemed to open until 9:30 at the earliest, anywhere. This is a problem for early risers :-)

We went to Kirkwall mainly for the Whiskey distilleries and golf. We visited the Orkney Golf Club twice and had a great time there (special thanks to Bruce and Neill). We rented 2 bikes and took a local ferry to Shapinsay where we explored the island by bicycle, which was great as there is almost no car traffic on the island.
For great food I can definitely recommend "Helgi" a great little place with local dishes and drinks. However make sure to book in advance as they only have 12 tables and were fully booked every night of the week and we were lucky to get our reservation in.

My visit was very short.
My visit was very short. I went to connect with neolithic and nordic Orkney, mainly the stone circles, and with the beauty of Yesnaby. I was also blessed to be able to cross over to the Broch of Birsay. I left filled with awe and wonder. Sooo much beauty! The ring of Brodgar is magnificent. I highly recommend visiting Maeshowe. That was an unexpected treat. I did not have time to enjoy Kirkwall. I wanted to visit St. Magnus cathedral and see the Ness of Brodgar excavation findings in the museum. I didn't even have time to eat. I also wanted to visit Stromness. Next time! Orcadians are wonderful people. Incredibly friendly. Loved it all. Since I was flying in and the following day out of Kirkwall and the car rental company was also in Kirkwall it made sense to book accomodation in that town.

Kirkwall caters well for its visitors with an array of quality shops selling a range of local products. The coffee shops are close by and coffee is tasty. There a lot of things to see as you wander through the town. The Cathedral dominates the town and is full of history alongside the bishops and earls house.
However there is so much more to explore outwith Kirkwall if you are interested in Neolithic structures, naval warfare history or the wonderful sights of nature.

A visit to Kirkwall Church is beautiful & full of history the place is so calming when you enter those huge church doors. This is my 2nd visit Orkney loved it.
They have quaint streets dating back to 1200's or more but with the Lidl, Tesco + Co-op supermarkets you can get all you need at these stores. We went to excellent restaurant The Ayre Hotel for fish & chips + seafood platter it was excellent + staff were excellent very friendly we are from Catering too it was great good !!
