Patricia was a fantastic host sharing her home with us. We had a room with a double and twin bed with an en-suite bathroom with shower /tub stocked with amenities. The room had everything you needed; Patricia went out of her way providing large bottled waters, an assortment of teas and shortbread. There was a shared kitchen and sitting area, which was nice to be able to cook your own meals. We ended our trip a day early due to impending weather and a tight itinerary but this no-frills home provides you with everything you need in a safe environment. We did have a car, which I would suggest to anyone wanting to explore the island. if you are looking for lots of action and city environment, this isn’t for you. If you want a central and quiet spot, you’ve found it. Thanks Patricia; you were awesome! And I think we made the right decision leaving early…the wind and rain would not have made a pleasant ferry ride ( if they were even running!)

Close to the ferry terminal in Kirkwall, so for a late night arrival, there was little hassle getting there and checking in.

    The Orkneys was vey beautiful with fantastic scenery but our trip was spoilt by the Stromness Hotel that we stayed at. (BIG MISTAKE). The owners should go to school and learn how to run a hospitality business as they haven't got a clue, unless you are the same ethnicity as them.

    Stromness is a beautiful sea village that is in many ways untouched by time. The people are genuine and friendly, there are ample places to walk to discover little gardens and views, plenty of unique shops. There are not a lot of restaurants in the evening, but the two that are actively open are fantastic and their staff will make your visit memorable.

    Delightful small historical seaport town built on the side of a hill best seen on foot due to narrow Main Street with many small ‘closes’ off leading to the traditional houses Free parking available in port area and most of old town accessible from there - easy walking Museum is worth a visit When coming ashore from ferry take a break and explore the town - the history is amazing from Captain Cook to John Rae through to the herring fishing and the modern ferry terminal

    The Pier Arts Centre is well worth seeing - awesome architecture as well as art. The Vintage Paper Company (Printing) is a hidden gem, and look out for Otto, the shop dog. The Museum is good to see if you are happy walking through lots of interesting old streets and want to learn more of the social history of the area,

    We spent a week in Stromness which was a good location to visit most parts of Mainland. Stromness itself is a quiet town with limited dining out opportunities (book early to avoid disappointment). Getting a cottage with a view over the harbour is essential.

    Stromness is a small town with an old world feel.

    Stromness is a small town with an old world feel. It is a good location to get across to some other islands (especially Hoy, which is why we stayed there). It is also quite a good location to get to the major archaeological sites. The Stromness Hotel is the only large hotel in the town and this is a functional but rather soulless place (we understand the locals have tended to boycott the place since the current owners decided to make it alcohol free) . We stayed early June and there were only other 2 restaurants plus a couple of take-aways and the restaurants booked up really early (ideally you needed to book at least a day ahead!)
