Rooms are excellent, en suits. Comfy and homely. Min from one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever been on. The owners are friendly and helpful.... More

My family and I spent three nights in August at this B and B. The place was quiet and relaxing , the owners very friendly, the breakfasts were delicious.... It's only ten minutes from Kirkwall.

3 of us stayed in one of the new flats for 4 nights and it was great! Free wifi, flatscreen tv, big comfortable sofas, great views from the kitchen, diner, lounge area. Only a 10minute drive into Kirkwall, we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay and the owners were very friendly and informative. Will certainly go back!!

Foinhaven was our home on Orkney for four nights. Our hosts were gracious, welcoming, and so knowledgeable. We enjoyed our daily breakfasts in their cozy kitchen and learned so much from our conversations with them. Our room was spacious, comfortable, and clean. From its window, we could see Scapa Flow. Raymond, our host, gave us tips regarding places to visit... More
