Welcome to The Pally, a self catering unit which can sleep up to 6 comprising of 3 bedrooms. 1 twin room and one double room on the ground floor along with a bathroom with a shower over the bath. The third bedroom (twin) is on the first floor along with a shower room and small living room. The kitchen/diner is on the ground floor. Close to all amenities and in a quiet, secluded area despite being in the centre of town. We are situated right in the centre of Kirkwall, a stones throw from St Magnus Cathedral and the Bishop's and Earl's Palaces. Check in is from 3pm and check out by 10am on the date of your departure. The Pally is attached to our own home, hence the "behind 13 Palace Road". Please note that there is no designated outside space although you enter through our garden. You are more than welcome to make use of our garden/use the washing line etc and bearing in mind, we do have two boys who may be in the garden from time to time. Particularly in summer when we try and make use of the good weather we get! Please also note that there is no private parking. Though public parking is very close by. The house is completely non smoking and we would also ask that you refrain from smoking in our garden. Feel free to message for further info.
