A recently renovated holiday home located in Orkney, Binnaquoy features a garden. This property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is set 5.5 km from Maeshowe. We adored the amenities of the property as well as the prompt helpfulness of the owners. The bathtub and the dryer were very much appreciated. The facilities were spotless and the location was exactly what we expected (what a view!). We loved the kitchen food amenities that were provided, too. Thank you so much for contributing so much to our wonderful stay on Orkney!

Offering garden views, Orkney Retreats 1 2 and 3 bedroom Island Farmhouses & Cottages in Sanday offers accommodation and a garden. This beachfront property offers access to a patio, free private parking and free WiFi. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. The location is very good and the house is superb - everything you can think of is there. The hosts are very friendly - Jackie was there to welcome us. Whenever I had a question, I texted Dave and he always answered practically immediately. The house has some great features, such as 'slow cooking' stove (but also electrical / microwave if it needs to go faster), an outside bath with seaview (and privacy) that is just the best I've ever been in.
