North Walls Kirk

IanRating, 5 stars1 week ago

The Old Kirk was quite stunning - as soon as we unlocked and opened the door, we could see the charm and wonder of the whole place. It was superbly furnished and quite delightful, with so many interesting things dotted around... ...a real home from home and on quite a grand scale. Hoy is a charmingly remote and sometimes desolate place, but the Old Kirk was always a delight to come back to - so warm and cosy. We were particularly lucky that there was a folk music concert (Saltfishforty) on the Friday we were there, right next door in the Gable End Theatre - and we had two meals at Emily's, just up the road. A wonderful 4 days - Thanks, Inga.

Modern house | Great location in Kirkwall

LizRating, 5 stars9 months ago

Everything about this house was perfect. It suited us (2 adults, 1 teen) and all our needs were met with ease. Spacious, comfortable, very clean, great parking, excellent amenities and we felt right ‘at home’. The location in Kirkwall was great and - it has to be said - at night it was silent...absolutely silent and we all slept so well here. We made use of the washing machine and had the clothes airer set up in living room which dried quite quickly with the wall heater going. The kitchen has everything you’d need to self-cater. Access (check in) was easy, as was check-out. The styling of this property wasn’t over the top either - we loved it. Nothing but high praise for Louise’s place on Old Scapa Road and we would happily stay here again. Orkney is incredible!

Taylors Rest Chalet 2

JaydeRating, 5 starstoday

We didn't to leave! The chalet was sooo cozy, decorated and finished beautifully and thoughtfully. We really appreciated the food that was provided and it's location - only 10 minutes from Kirkwall, but felt so private and peaceful. Taylor's Rest was a great base to explore the Orkneys for the first time. Will definitely stay again.

Two bedroom self-catering in St Margaret's Hope

SueRating, 5 stars2 days ago

We stayed at Cecily’s place for a week. She met us on the drive and showed us around. Everything we needed was available in the property. The view was beautiful and we felt instantly relaxed. Cecily was really helpful and responded quickly to our questions. The property is well placed for the ferry to the mainland but also within easy driving distance of all the attractions, coastal walks and ferries to other islands. We spent long days out and it was always a pleasure to come back to the property in the evening to relax.
