    We absolutely loved our recent stay at the cottage in Stromness. The location was superb, just a short walk from great coffee, a pub with delicious meals, and a convenient grocery store. The cottage itself was spacious, beautifully decorated, and incredibly cozy. The off-street parking right outside the door was a fantastic bonus. We appreciated the attention to detail and the warm, inviting atmosphere of the cottage. The availability of a washing machine was also a great convenience. Although the bathroom/shower was on the smaller side, it was clean and functional. The only minor drawback was the staircase to the bedrooms, which could be challenging for those with mobility issues. However, overall, our experience was excellent and we would highly recommend this delightful cottage for a wonderful stay in Stromness.

    We had a wonderful stay in Stromness during New Year's. the cottage was conveniently located near a supermarket and a cute little coffee shop. There was also a useful guide left by the host that mentioned nearby amenities and attractions. the cottage itself had comfortable bedding and new electronics and fixtures. We enjoyed the cozy and private experience it provided. the owner was very helpful and hospitable, offering assistance via emails and phone calls.

    The bathroom and shower were quite small, making it difficult for four adults to use comfortably. the water pressure in the shower was also not very strong.

    The location of this place was mind-blowing - just across from the ferry terminal! It was super central for all amenities and near to many areas of historical interest. The cottage was incredibly comfortable and cozy, with new electronics and fixtures. The hot towel rail was a genius addition! The private parking space was so convenient. We loved that it was within walking distance to a supermarket, bakery, and shops. The community was friendly, and we had amazing local food options. We can't wait to return for another memorable stay!

    The location of the cottage was excellent, right across from the ferry terminal and central to amenities and areas of historical interest. the cottage had a cozy and comfortable feel, with excellent beds and a TV equipped with Netflix. the fully equipped kitchen and the convenience of a grocery store nearby made it easy for us to cook our own meals. We also appreciated the hot towel rail and the washer and drying rack for our laundry. the host, David, was very responsive to our questions and concerns via email. this cottage was instrumental in making our first visit to Orkney a great experience.

    Felt very welcome, no complaints at all.

    The location of the cottage is ideal, with a short walking distance to various amenities and attractions. the cottage itself is clean and comfortable, providing a cozy and homely atmosphere. the kitchen is well-equipped, allowing guests to prepare their own meals using fresh seafood from the nearby fish shop. the private car park in front of the house is also a convenient addition.

    Some guests mentioned that the cottage could benefit from having more crockery, glassware, and larger pots and pans for cooking larger meals.

    Lovely cottage with everything we needed - BT Wi-Fi, Netflix, and a good shower. Polite owner, close to shops and ferry port, and a friendly neighbor cat. Lights and heat were on when we arrived, making it feel cozy. Cute and comfy with off-street parking. The owner, David, was very helpful and hospitable.

    Felt taken care of, no complaints.
