Lilly's Lodges Orkney Robin Lodge, hotel in Orkney

Lilly's Lodges Orkney Robin Lodge offers accommodations in Orkney, 5.4 miles from Maeshowe and 6.4 miles from Standing Stones of Stenness.

From the moment we arrived, it was clear that great care and attention had been put into creating a cosy and inviting retreat. The lodge was spotless, beautifully furnished, and thoughtfully equipped with everything we needed for a truly comfortable stay. The little details throughout the space made it feel like a true home away from home. The private hot tub was a standout feature—perfect for unwinding and relaxing during our holiday. The well-appointed kitchen made it easy to prepare meals, and the private entrance added an extra touch of privacy to the experience. One unforgettable highlight of our trip was the owner's thoughtfulness. On the third evening, they kindly knocked on our door to inform us of the Northern Lights' appearance. Without their heads-up, we might have missed this magical sight. Seeing the stunning Northern Lights from our window was a delightful experience.

St Clair House, hotel in Orkney

We absolutely loved our stay at St. Clair House. It was comfortable, welcoming, and cozy, with plenty of space for sitting and relaxing, a roomy kitchen, and comfortable and spacious bedrooms. St. Margaret's Hope is really charming, and we loved feeling like we were a part of it. The host had left items that made our stay easy — extra towels, blankets, paper towels, etc.

    It was the perfect out of the way retreat and like a tardis - much bigger on the inside than it appeared from outside. Very comfortable and well equipped. Would have loved to stay longer.

    Beautiful location. Feels remote (a retreat,indeed), yet close to some of Orkney‘s major sights. Perfectly equipped with everything you need. Small, but with some very clever ideas to make use of the space.

    Everything was perfect !! The location was a short drive from Kirkwall which meant we had the opportunity to visit some of the smaller villages enroute. Teresa and Malcolm, our hosts, welcomed us into their home and gave us many insightful tips about Orkney that made our trip run more smoothly. The breakfast was fresh and delicious each day and the room was generous in size with quality inclusions and a most incredible view! We most certainly recommend this accommodation for visitors to Orkney !!

    Perfect location, ‘Retreat’ is the right name for it. Tranquil with lovely views, out of the way but on a small island still easy to get anywhere.
