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.

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.

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!

Janice is a superb host, friendly, helpful, knowledgeable about the area, and makes a great breakfast. Make sure you ask for her fresh fruit plate! The studio itself is spotless, spacious and well equipped. I will certainly be back when I return to Orkney.

Property is about 15/20 easy walk to the centre with private parking. Fabulous newly renovated property. Exceptionally clean and comfortable and tastefully decorated. Albert the host was very friendly, gave good suggestions of what to do/where to go on our visit. Would definitely recommend Grainbank Mews.
