Alojamientos vacacionales en Kirkwall

Of 60 or so places we have stayed at Airbnb, this has been the best Airbnb experience we’ve had! Given that this is a special trip (our honeymoon, which we had not mentioned before showing up) we feel very fortunate indeed! Stewart was an absolutely phenomenal host. So thoughtful and kind. But not imposing or ‘ever present’; just enough for a nice chat when we bump into one another out in the garden, and for some wonderful home-baked treats :) Stewart’s advice about getting last-minute tickets to Maeshowe (just a few minutes down the lane) was spot on and was the only reason we were able to visit. The place is really relaxed and quiet, a place to really unwind. It is a perfect base for exploring these wonderful islands, centrally located with all that’s needed just a 10 minute drive or a short bike ride away. We will certainly be back for an anniversary, as this place holds a special place in our hearts.

Two of us, plus our two dogs, had the Noddle to ourselves so we had plenty of room. It was exactly as described. Had everything you needed plus very comfy bed. It was lovely to have the fire going and also to sit in the conservatory which was so toasty. I even had a go at sketching and playing the piano! Emilys tea room is such an easy walk and we had a delicious supper with her plus coffee the morning we checked out. Thank you Tony.

We had an absolutely amazing stay! The photos don’t do justice to how lovely a home this is. There were nine of us who stayed here and not only was there enough space for us to comfortably stay here, everyone only had good things to say about the space and the surrounding area. Bronagh was extremely responsive to any questions we had and was very generous with letting us check in late. Overall I couldn’t recommend this home or host enough!

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.

We absolutely loved our two day stay at Martin’s house. We had everything we needed and felt very welcome. Martin is a warm and friendly person who went out of his way to make us feel welcome. The house provides in everything that is needed for your holiday. Ample parking nearby and simply put a beautiful house. We went to Orkney by ferry and explored the surrounding area, which is amazing. Plenty of large supermarkets nearby by car. We would love to be able to come back one time.

Stayed here as attending the Blues Festival, Hazel’s place was good as it was on the edge of Stromness so quiet and peaceful but an easy walk into Town. Everything we needed was catered for, made use of washing machine and tumble dryer for our swimming gear. Would recommend, Hazel was friendly and helpful.

Lee and Sam’s place was absolutely perfect for us. An amazing week away just what we needed. Thank you

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!
