Vacation rentals in Rousay

Beautiful home and Rachael was a great host (hands off but very responsive-just what I like). The location cannot be beat. We had a car but chose to taxi most places. Even our taxi drivers were admiring the location. The hot tub was AMAZING. We got stuck on the island an extra day due to weather conditions impacting ferry crossings. Rachael was able to accommodate an extra nights stay. Although you feel very remote, there are 3 grocery stores within 10 minutes and you have easy access to all of Kirkwall. Favorite part was the neighbor sheep….waking up and looking out to see all the sheep while you get ready was so fun!

Church was a great space to be in. It did exactly what we needed it to do for us. Smart well presented and clean. Shower switch was a game of hide and seek but one message to Kevin sorted this out (its in the cupboard opposite the bathroom on the right about waist height.) Good well insulated building which made it pretty hot to sleep in given that its summer when we visited. Maybe bring a fan. Kitchen was well equipped. Bathroom clean and spotless. Bedrooms were one double bedroom and 2 single beds in the other. Slightly changed from the description. All in all a good stay. Thank you for being so responsive throughout our booking.

Lovely house, very clean, and well stocked with a useful kitchen extras which made a self-catering holiday much easier and was much appreciated. Super location for us: quiet, and a great base for exploring mainland Orkney for a few days.

Evelyn was a great host, the house is lovely, very cosy and peaceful. Great views, shops/supermarkets within a short drive and it’s an ideal base for travelling around Orkney. The beds are super comfy.

beautiful house, very tidy and clean highly recommended

Not too sure what to say about this stunning house, other than WOW WOW WOW!!! If you’re looking for the perfect base for a group or family getaway, look no further (I looked far and wide before stumbling over Keiss Harbour House and what a find!!!) From start to finish, Jill has been a fantastic host. The house was exactly as described and even better than expected! We were completely blown away. We visited Keiss as a surprise 40th birthday trip with my boyfriend and 8 of our friends. We all agreed that this is by far the best stay any of us have had. There was something for all of us, walking, to beach trips, the beautiful local town of Wick, kite surfing, diving, john o’groats, lots of delicious food. A Tesco 10 mins down the road meant we were able to make great use of the brilliantly stocked kitchen, the stew cooked in the huge slow cooker provided went down a treat after a blustery day! We aren’t ones to return to the same destination but will definitely be back!

I could not recommend this stay enough. The home was beautiful - so much space and extra comfy beds! My favorite part of the stay was waking up in the morning, looking out the window to see the beautiful landscape, fields with sheep and stunning waters. I am in awe of this beautiful stay. ❤️ Also, our hosts were so accommodating, kind and responsive! We really hope to return soon.

Sharon's place was amazing!!! It was perfectly clean and tidy. The lodge had everything we needed, and we just couldn't ask for more. Also, the BBQ hut is fantastic!! Stay here. You won't be disappointed. We are already planning to book again next Spring.
