10.0“Exceeds expectations”
+There isn't enough room to list everything we love about this stay. It was spotless and contained everything we could possibly need for an independent relaxing stay. Dishwasher and washing machine pods, laundry basket, snacks, coffee, milk, emergency contacts, local points of interest... the list goes on and on. Couple that with the amazing view, bunnies, and quiet and you can't get any better.
−Lol, nothing. There was literally nothing we disliked about this booking and we've traveled a LOT. Japan, Germany, Ireland, England, Scotland mainland, Italy, and all across the USA. This is the best place we have stayed by far.

10.0“Cosy cottage with coastal views.”
+Everything about our stay was fabulous! The hosts were so lovely and couldn't do enough for us. Lovely welcome pack on arrival and a kitchen that had everything we needed. The location was close enough to Stromness for convenience (20 minute walk), but felt wonderfully remote. The views from the living room across the Hoy Sound were absolutely stunning. The bedroom was so cosy and comfortable and the bathroom was modern with a great walk in shower! The cottage is very well placed for visiting the Neolithic sites and Stromness has good bus links to Kirkwall and the rest of the island.
−Everything was perfect!

10.0“Great spot. The view is amazing. Better than the pictures convey.”
+The view was amazing. A bit expensive, at least for off season. Still, no regrets. And owners came to greet me and were lovely.
−Would be nice to have a light by the couch in the living room. The overhead light is so bright and would be better to have a a warmer color temperature bulb for that room.
