    Beautiful room in a beautiful setting. Outstanding shower, comfortable bed, all the amenities you’d want. While the hosts said they don’t provide breakfast, they sure made up for it by setting up a breakfast area with fresh fruits, milk and dried...

    The location is out of town, but that suited us, as it would many people. The room, is very nice, with views across the water and a lovely seat in a window alcove. The bathroom is very well appointed. Lovely place.

    The view from the room was excellent, you could sit taking it in for hours. There was a microwave available so you could heat up food in the evening if you didn't want to go out. The host also let us keep some items in their external freezer.

Located on the bay of Firth’s water edge, you can watch the ebb and flow of the tide which comes right up to our sea wall. We are centrally located on the bus route between the two major towns Kirkwall and Stromness. A cafe that serves breakfast is located next to the propert about 100m away.
Neighbourhood is idyllic but still central with easy access to UNESCO world heritage sites. There is ample parking space, free of charge.
