This is a beautiful house in a beautiful location, a great and warm place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. Our host went out her way to accommodate us, including a take away breakfast due to us leaving early to catch the ferry. Breakfast was amazing!
United KingdomGreat breakfast. Good variety. Good location with great views and a nice garden. Carols was an excellent hostess.
United KingdomA delightfully peaceful country retreat with superb country house style facilities, comfortable places to relax by the wood fire and probably the best breakfast that I have ever had. beautifully presented with care and consideration by our gracious host Carola.
United KingdomCarola was such a fantastic host, very welcoming and helpful. The breakfasts were delicious, certainly the best that we had throughout our holiday. Would highly recommend staying here and we look forward to returning to Woodwick House in the future.
ChinaThere is an ineffable quality to Woodwick House that we found simply enchanting. Carola (and Bodhi) took amazing care of us. We extended our stay and, now that we've left, hope to come back soon. Woodwick House is one of those places where you can make a deep connection with your surroundings. We loved every minute of our stay.

With its own bluebell wood and waterfall, Woodwick House offers peaceful rooms, home-cooked breakfasts and free parking and free WiFi. In Evie, on Orkney’s east coast, it overlooks the island of Gairsay and is around 20 minutes’ drive from Kirkwall.
Each room has an en suite bathroom and traditional furnishings. All rooms have tea and coffee facilities, and guests also have use of a lounge with an extensive library, TV and DVD player.
Breakfast is provided in the dining room, which has a fireplace carved by the house’s original owner. This room overlooks the gardens, towards Woodwick Bay. Home-cooked evening meals, using local produce, are occasionally available and upon on request.
The Iron Age village Broch of Gurness is a 6-minute drive away, with prehistoric Skara Brae just under 30 minutes from Woodwick House. Kirkwall is home to Saint Magnus Cathedral and many recommended restaurants, and local guides Orkney Aspects offer tailored tours of the island to discover its heritage, culture and wildlife, including the popular puffins.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.6 for a two-person trip.
