Riff Cottage with sea views in Orkney
It had everything we hoped for fantastic location and greig was very accommodating.

Cosy cottage with private garden and parking
We had a great stay at this cottage in Stromness. The accommodation was equipped with everything we needed and was lovely and clean. We enjoyed the quiet location and watching the wildlife from the windows. This was a great base for exploring Orkney. We are looking forward to returning one day.

2-bedroom cottage situated by the sea.Congesquoy 1
We absolutely loved our stay, the cottage was everything we wanted and looked for. Evelyn is a fantastic host and provides an amazing cottage to stay in. Immaculate, peaceful and the best location, only a few minutes from Stromness. We will be back.

Private luxury riverside lodge
A great place to stay for our mixed group of adults and children. The house was warm on arrival and very welcoming. We spent so much time in the kitchen / Dining room cooking meals and playing board games.

North Walls Kirk
A one-of-a-kind stay in an unparalleled location! We so enjoyed reading about the history of the kirk and its caretakers over the years; the island of Hoy is rich with hikes, views, museums, fresh air, and peaceful interludes. Worth the ferry trips to stay here! (Just be advised that if you’re coming at or after the end of September, or arriving on a Sunday, you’d do well to get groceries on the main island ahead of your visit bc there will be few to no options for food service on Hoy. We did and were so grateful we had!)

2 Bedroom house overlooking Pierowall Bay, Westray
Wonderful stay on Westray. Lovely cottage, great location and kitted out with everything you need to be home from home. Host was really helpful and flexible.

Thurdistoft Farmhouse , dunnetbay accommodation
Really enjoyed our stay here. Amazing house with ample space for the 6 of us. Lovely surroundings. Peaceful. George provides logs & charcoal for the bbq & fire pit which was great! There’s also 6 folding camp chairs which you are free to use - they came in handy.! There’s outdoor seating & also a communal garden in addition to your own private garden space. The house was clean & comfy. Games room was a hit - we got in some darts practice which was a laugh & there was plenty time spent on the pool table too! All bedrooms are en-suite with one bedroom downstairs & 3 upstairs. Living room is large with 3 sofas. We definitely had loads of space. There was milk & butter in the fridge in addition to a lovely welcome pack of locally produced goods & breakfast cereals. George came to introduce himself & even gave us a wee tour of the neighbouring farm so we could see & hold the beautiful lambs.. really enjoyed our stay.

Spacious house surrounded by farmland & loch views
What a beautiful place to stay, the house was so tidy and clean. Very cosy environment and will definitely be back to stay again.

No.3, Shiro, Juniper bank
Exactly what we needed for a night in Thurso when doing the NC500 - would definitely recommend staying at Richard’s place it has a relaxed community and welcoming feel. A nice modern take on the studio style Airbnb too :)

Flat 4 - The Store
Perfect base for exploring the area. Very clean, well equipped, and in a great location.

Rowan Cottage, NC500
We had a fantastic few days spent at Rowan Cottage. Very much a “home from home”. We really didn’t want to leave. We will most definitely be back again in the near future. Highly recommend!

Old Hall Cottage, Island of Hoy, Orkney
A lovely, cosy cottage, perfect for what I needed whilst working on the island. Thanks so much for having me stay, I’ll definitely be back!

Langwell Bothy
Such a lovely, peaceful location -the perfect place to lose yourself in and shut off from the world. Cozy and comfortable, with everything we needed for a break. Nigel was the most welcoming host, friendly and attentive. We will definitely be returning!

Homely 2 bed cottage on outskirts of Kirkwall
Anne's place was just as described, cosy and welcoming and the perfect base to explore Orkney. Can't wait to return!

Cuan Na Ghra - 3 bedroom house in Kirkwall
Stevens place was very cute and in a great location. It’s a good spot if you have kids.

'Here, where the world is quiet’ Orkney
Thank you Irene. A delightful place of peace and relaxation overlooking the beauty of Orkney in front of a Loch. The character of the stone cottage added to the enjoyment of the stay.
Pet-friendly home rentals with a hot tub

New: Cantick Head Lighthouse Cottage
I'm finding it difficult to put into words what being a guest at Cantick Head was like. Magical, inspiring, cozy, peaceful, safe. The cottage is beyond charming. It was tastefully decorated with little bits of history scattered about. It was absolutely spotless clean with comfortable beds and linens that smelled heavenly especially after a day of hiking the nearby trails. A nature and animal lovers paradise. Alan and his family go above and beyond to ensure you are happy. I found the experience to be quite moving and was saddened to leave. Alan is an example of what an outstanding Airbnb operator is and Cantick Head is a top notch accommodation. The price was very reasonable for the experience of being at Cantick Head. Overall, 11 out 10!

The Hen Hoose-private hot tub-dog friendly
A fantastic stay from start to finish! The cabin was exactly as pictured, cleaned to a high standard and has everything you could need and more inside. Yvonne was a fantastic host who was very responsive and provided lots of recommendations for things to do and places to eat.

Valhalla View-NC500
We really enjoyed our time here, the area is very different to the highlands where we were staying previously but the scenery really does have its own special charm. The house has everything you could ask for and a lot more besides! The master bedroom suite is amazing! The views across the sea from the house are lovely and we enjoyed walking to, and exploring the local little harbour and beach.

Orkney Retreats Kilnbarn Cottage STB5*
The cottage was very cozy and comfortable. Well equipped, had everything we needed and some nice touches over and above expectation. Would recommend Kilburn Cottage for a quiet, cozy, relaxing break from normal.

Marston Cabin 2 self-catering with hot tub
Marston Cabin is immaculately presented and a lovely place to come back to after a day in the Sanday fresh air. The homemade loaf of bread and cakes were much appreciated. It was very well equipped with everything you needed and the sitting area and the beds were very comfortable. Thank you. It was a lovely stay.

Marston log cabin on Sanday With hot tub
We had a wonderful stay in Marston lodge. The lodge was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. The homebakes and fresh eggs were absolutely delicious and such a nice touch. The inclosed garden was perfect for our dog and the hottub was 100% a worthwhile luxury. We had a fantastic stay and will definitely be back. Thank you Helen and Robbie!

Miry park croft beachcomber
We had an excellent time at Miry Park. Our daughter was delighted to see all the animals and play on beaches. Jan and her husband were great to show us around, give advice or help out if needed. The tin tent was spotless clean and warm even in early April.
