Our property is joined to our house. We have lovely views over the bay and are situated on the main bus route for stromness, kirkwall and even Maeshowe! It is a smaller property but has everything you will need for your stay.
I have worked in Care of the elderly for 20 years and my husband owns a Garage. We have 2 older children and 2 labradors.
The village of Finstown is the 3rd biggest on the orkney mainland. There is a shop, post office, pub and garage and school.
