Offering a garden and quiet street view, Shorelands B&B is situated in Kirkwall, 2.9 km from Scapa Beach and 17 km from Maeshowe. Featuring sea and garden views, this guest house also includes free WiFi. The guest house has family rooms. The host(s) are lovely, the breakfast was delicious, the room was great. It had a really good combination of privacy in our room as well as comfortable common areas that made it feel like we were just staying with the family. Nicky was able to accommodate us for the guided tour (a later start time) and I'm so glad it worked out - the tour was one of my favorite parts of the overall trip to Scotland.
