The bed was sooo comfortable. It was spotlessly clean and the owner, Tereasa, was welcoming and accommodating. The view from the dining room window was amazing and it was just a short stones throw from the town. Breakfast was excellent and I spent the most relaxing night there. I hope to be back!

A beautiful, comfortable house. I appreciated my bed, arriving on a late ferry. Thoughtful additions like a shower mat, and also a delicious breakfast. Fiona was very attentive and friendly. I'd love to return.

Everything! Debbie knows how to spoil a person! I must say facecloths were a welcome surprise and the strong enough coffee and fresh fruit at breakfast was the best!

Our stay was most enjoyable. In addition to an excellent breakfast, our morning meal was made all the better by discussions on the Orkney islands, background on sites worth seeing and information that made our exploration of the islands easier. The location served us well for visiting a number of historic sites and the capital, Kirkwall. Our room was supplied by essentials most B & Bs don't provide. If we were returning to the Orkney islands, we'd welcome the opportunity to return Orkney Bed and Whisky.
