This was truly a home from home. The cottage was larger than I'd expected, very comfortable and warm, with everything you could ask for. The only reason I placed location as slightly lower, was due to lack of nearby entertainment/dining establishments. I will state that we didn't have a car, as we were staying near family who chauffeured us around, but the bus service was excellent so if you don't drive you are able to easily move around the island by public transport. The views are incredible and the location is quiet. Highly recommend and would definitely stay again if I go back to Orkney.

Kirkwall is a 15min bus ride away, however there is a burger van about a 10min walk away called Leigh's. Truly delicious food.

Lynn couldn't have been more helpful. Even during storm Babet, she called with us and left a box of essentials for use in the event of the power going off. Fortunately this didn't happen but we were very impressed. The cottage had everything we needed, it was cosy and warm, quiet and with wonderful views, just perfect for a week away.

All the historical sites should not be missed. I actually got the Ring of Brodgar all to myself when I visited. Archive restaurant in Laing Street is excellent. St Magnus Cathedral of course is a must see. Ortak jewellery visitors centre is excellent. We were able to watch some silver jewellery being decorated, it was very intricate and fascinating to watch.
