Set on a working farm, 5 miles from Kirkwall and just 3 miles from the airport, this beautifully renovated cottage is the perfect base for discovering Orkney's unique character with friends or family. With their wide skies, dramatic coastline and layers of history stretching back thousands of years, the archipelago is a wonderful place to spend a holiday. This two-bed home sleeps four guests and is easily reached by car from the ferry, providing a peaceful retreat at the end of days spent exploring this remarkable part of Scotland.
Inside, the property is decorated in a stylish contemporary style and is laid out over one level. The main living areas have a wood-look floor while the two bedrooms are carpeted for a comfy and cosy feel. On the wall are elegant photos of pretty scenery to whet your appetite for local exploration.
At the heart of the cottage is the spacious modern kitchen, which has everything you need for prepping leisurely breakfasts and packed picnics. The lounge-diner is a welcoming space for evenings in, complete with a Smart TV in one corner for film nights with fellow guests. A wooden table sets you up for tucking into hearty evening meals together. Patio doors from here lead out to the garden. The accommodation features a king-size bedroom and a light, airy twin. The modern shower room is a bright, refreshing space for beginning and ending each day.
Outside, you can make the most of good weather on the large patio. A garden bench provides the perfect spot for morning coffee while soaking up the fresh island air and views of the surrounding countryside. Private parking is available for up to two cars.
