“Peaceful location. Top quality. Great views.”
+I very peaceful location right on the edge of the loch. The property is of a very high standard, up there with the best. If we ever return to Orkney will try to book this property . Note, there are stairs ,as the accommodation is not on ground level so may not suit anyone with mobility issues
−There was nothing we could fault.

“Highly recommend as a base for visiting Orkney and the other islands.”
+Beautiful location on the side of the lock. The apartment is spotless tastefully decorated and laid out, Big living space with open plan kitchen, large lounge, big bedroom and walk in shower that had everything you needed plus a utility room for washing of clothes. The outside area has two gardens one where you can sit overlooking the loch and if the weather is a bit chilly a closed in garden with a garden hut whare you can sit and watch the weather fitted with a heater and TV Its position in the North of Orkney Island is perfect for visiting the wild coastline, Skara Brae, the rings, Stromness, Kirkwall and all the other sites but giving you quiet empty roads and no crowds. Beautifully tranquil. Highly recommend as a base for visiting Orkney and the other islands.

“Beautiful views and peaceful ✨”
+Such a tranquil setting with stunning views. The apartment and the gardens are immaculate. We had the best sleep in the comfiest bed listening to the oystercatchers and curlews out the window. A beautiful place to recharge, highly recommend.

“Recommend 1 million percent.”
+It is basically a one bedroom apartment tucked away next to a Loch. The garden was absolute serenity. Peace is what I felt as I left. Must see is Skiba Geo and Yesnaby Castle Sea stack.

“Perfect getaway!”
+We had an amazing stay, the area was very quiet and it came with a beautiful view over the loch. The apartment was very comfortable and everything that we could possibly need was provided for. The location was excellent with the best sites just a very short drive away.
