10.0“Awesome. We will be back”
+Perfect location. Bird life - ducks, geese & swans plentiful. Cozy & Comfortable, we didn’t want for anything. Host was extremely thoughtful, a starter pack with milk, bread & the freshest of eggs & other goodies were supplied & much appreciated. Also, very accommodating & helpful during ferry issues which was a ‘God Send’ Neighbours were a delight, and full of local knowledge & information
−Having to leave…

9.0“A great location to enjoy the neolithic sites on Orkney!”
+The beds were so comfortable! It was helpful to have a kitchen to make meals when we wanted to. The view was lovely, right on the loch. The host even gave us Farm fresh eggs to enjoy. I loved the location, right near the neolithic sites in Stenness. It was also close to Stomness where we got the ferry to the island of Hoy and not far from Kirkwall
−As an American, charging our devices was a little challenging as we were using the adapters for David’s CPAP

9.0“Perfect place for a sunset”
+We are a family of 4 from London. We stayed 3 nights. The host left us fresh eggs (from their own chicken), milk, bread coffee and tea. Communication was very easy and clear. The location is awesome, you can see the Ring of Brodgar from the garden looking out over the salt water lake. The standing Stones of Stenness are 5min away, Stromness is good for food shopping, strolling through the pretty streets and has a nice pub (Ferry Inn). Sara Brea and the beach there, Marwick Nature Reserve and the Brough of Birsay are a must! Watched the eclipse from the garden!
−Nothing, all was good.

10.0“Wonderful Rural location at the ends of the earth;)”
+Lovely owners who gave us fresh eggs twice, a working farm so captured the imagination of my son. Thank you for being such wonderful hosts. The cottage is always warm and was spotless on our arrival:)

7.0“Overall an excellent location with good facilities, just a couple of tweeks to make it fantastic.”
+Location excellent. Property clean and well stocked. Log fire with enough wood for a burn. The complimentary bread, eggs and milk to tied us over was a god send. A comments book gave us some additional ideas of places to go. Lots of pamphlets of local interests and a few books and games for rainy days.
−The prospect of having to add money to a pay meter if it had been cold enough to need to use the wall heaters. Wall heaters ineffective unless on a very high temperature and therefore very costly, the oil filled radiator we brought for our camp on the 2nd week was far more efficient. Strange drain smell from the bathroom. Some black out blinds in the bedroom for those of us not used to only 5 hrs of night.
