  • A beautiful wing attached to the owners property located on the Orcadian island of Westray, great for wildlife watchers
  • An island rich in Viking history with rugged coastlines and sandy beaches
  • Enjoy panoramic sea views from the ‘Gin and Tonic Terrace’
Property code: OC-83570

Sitting on a working farm on the island of Westray – ‘the Queen o’ the Isles’ - this beautiful self-contained wing in the 18th-century House of Brough is cosy and intimate. Offering wonderful sea views, it’s the perfect romantic retreat for two. Spend your days spotting puffins at Noup Head Cliffs (6 miles) or strolling hand in hand along Pierowall Beach (2.5 miles), and your nights snuggling up in front of the property’s glowing wood burner. Peek outside and you may even see the Northern Lights.

 

Overflowing with quaint, quirky charm, this wing is truly unique. Traditional features like flagstone flooring and exposed stone walls blend effortlessly with smart, modern styling and fun features like the ‘Gin and Tonic Terrace’. It lends itself easily to an atmosphere of intimacy and romance.

 

This wonderful wing has its own entrance door that leads into a stylish open-plan kitchen/diner. Cook up a feast for two in the kitchen and enjoy a romantic meal in the intimate dining area. After dinner, make your way to the lounge, slip onto a sofa and catch up on all of your favourite TV shows. If the mood takes you, pull up a pew at the piano and strike up a tune.

 

Climb the spiral staircase to the first-floor and you’ll find the wonderful ‘Gin and Tonic Terrace’ where you can relax with your favourite tipple and take in the view from the enormous windows. The bedroom boasts a super-king-size bed, and has a screen wall to separate it from the Gin and Tonic Terrace, which means that the entire space is bathed in natural light.

 

Outside, you’ll find a walled garden with a pond. Parking for two cars is available on the driveway. Please note that the wing is attached to the owner’s home.

Really lovely accommodation, very comfortable, warm and welcoming with a much appreciated welcome basket. Great views and would not hesitate to book again. Close to Pierowall and not too far to the puffins in the evenings. Lovely to be met by the hens, ducks and geese each day.

A beautifully appointed house, with excellent facilities. I can't remember when we have been more comfortable in a holiday home. Thank you so very much

In all the many years we've been renting holiday homes, nowhere else has ever suited us so well that it actually felt like home. The only comfort when departing was knowing that we absolutely have to return. The view from the 'Gin Terrace' was unforgettable and we loved just sitting and looking out on the harbour opposite, not least when the dayligRead moreht faded and its lights reflected on the water. The tranquility is palpable; it's a long time since we enjoyed so many restful and refreshing nights. Hide

A stunning space and a beautiful place to really relax and get away from it all. The views are amazing and it was hard to tear myself away from the gin terrace with its wide vista over Westray and the neighbouring island. Hopefully not my last visit.

There are no words to describe how perfect the Peedie End has been on my first trip to Westray. Its a home from home where the owner, Mark, goes above and beyond to welcome you into this cosy, creative, spacious place.
