Orkney: aluguel por temporada de casas de campo

Rachael's cottage is wonderful - we stayed six nights in the Spring and it was delightful. We especially appreciated some really nice welcoming touches such as some fresh flowers and chocolates for our arrival. We also appreciated the comprehensive heating system the cottage has - it was a little cold outside but we were always snug and warm inside the cottage. Rachael also has two wood burning fires with plenty of wood provided and even some coal as well. The kitchen is also very well equipped with a modern oven and cook top. All in all a lovely stay in a lovely cottage in an amazing area - stunning views and in the Spring, tons of tiny and cute lambs right outside the front door! We will happily come back!

I'm finding it difficult to put into words what being a guest at Cantick Head was like. Magical, inspiring, cozy, peaceful, safe. The cottage is beyond charming. It was tastefully decorated with little bits of history scattered about. It was absolutely spotless clean with comfortable beds and linens that smelled heavenly especially after a day of hiking the nearby trails. A nature and animal lovers paradise. Alan and his family go above and beyond to ensure you are happy. I found the experience to be quite moving and was saddened to leave. Alan is an example of what an outstanding Airbnb operator is and Cantick Head is a top notch accommodation. The price was very reasonable for the experience of being at Cantick Head. Overall, 11 out 10!

Super séjour dans les Orcades. Notre bateau est arrivé tard et nous avons pu profiter d’un panier d’accueil à notre arrivée. Logement moderne fonctionnel et chaleureux à la fois. Parfait pour notre famille de 4.

A lovely home with views and sunsets galore. Spotlessly clean, comfortable, warm and quiet despite being next to a road. The hot tub is an added bonus and was well used.

Linda’s Place is a lovely former family home in a stunning position on the sea front at Longhope on the island of Hoy. It’s a family home with a very comfy, if somewhat old-fashioned vibe. Don’t expect 5 star accommodation but do expect a warm home well supplied with kitchen equipment and welcoming shortbread (very yummy) and fresh milk in the fridge. There are two boxes of toy,s /games for children of all ages plus a large DVD film collection for showing on the TV , Linda supplies bedding and towels. The bathroom has a shower over the bath. For a rural property the water supply water supply is fab but a tip is to stagger bath/shower times as the hot water sometime can run cool if excessive demand is placed on it. There is a garden with a washing line over the road from the cottage. The next door neighbour is a brilliant neighbour and all locals we met were friendly and very helpful. We two stayed in the first week of August 24 finding the village shop to have comprehensive supply.

Pilot Berth was a great choice. Ideal central location with dedicated parking. Cosy and comfy with a great bed. John was helpful, welcoming and responsive. Highly recommended

Great stay in Orkney, very clean warm house, loved the wood burner in the living room, very private and peaceful

Our first visit to North Ronaldsay. Verracott was a great location, being in the middle of the island, so perfect for exploring. The croft is on its own down a private lane, with North Manse to the north (a field away) and Purtabrek to the south (2 fields away). The cottage was exactly as described, cosy with the fire (or 2) burning in the evenings. Plenty of hot water so the bath was well used! We ordered our provisions from the Bird Observatory and had lunch there several times. We enjoyed feeding our scraps to the chickens! If you fancy getting away from it all, this is the place to come. Loved it. Helga was very responsive and helpful, and it was really lovely to meet her, and her family.

A lovely, cosy cottage, perfect for what I needed whilst working on the island. Thanks so much for having me stay, I’ll definitely be back!

Anne's place was just as described, cosy and welcoming and the perfect base to explore Orkney. Can't wait to return!

We loved our brief stay in this cosy cottage. Although small, it is thoughtfully kitted out with everything that could be required. The location is stunning - beautiful views of the clear turquoise waters and the hills behind. We met nothing but kindness and friendliness from the people of Hoy, and especially from Kathleen

Perfect location and great view from the lounge and top bedroom. Orkney and Stromness is full of very friendly people, happy to have a chat in the street and local pub. It was quite difficult finding places to eat, it was March and a lot of places are closed for the winter. The fishmonger had closed down last December with was quite disappointing, really because we could have cooked amazing food in the kitchen of the house. We will definitely visit Orkney again!

Thanks so much to Henrietta and Calum - we had a great stay at the house, everything was spotless and neat, with great amenities, and within easy walk of Kirkwall.

Burnside is such a gem of a place to stay and Anne Marie a kind and helpful host. It's located where you can walk two minutes from the house to one of the most beautiful beaches on mainland. And then afterwards be cosy by the fire. The views from the cottage are also fantastic. We all slept so well and peacefully; Burnside is quiet. Lovely local shop just around the corner as well as a fantastic cafe just a 5 minute walk up the road. We had such a wonderful ten days at Burnside and hope to be back in the future. Thank you Anne Marie!

Beautiful cottage, very comfortable, all well presented. Location very good, walked into town and back easily. Would love to return for another visit here next time!

I have nothing but good things to say about our holiday at Feolquoy. (Ann-Marie, Jess, Isobel, and Duncan were all such lovely people, so helpful and friendly. ) The cottage itself was outstanding, clean and cozy warm, with all the comforts of home. The hosts ensured we had food in the cupboards, flowers (and wine!) on the table, and milk and cheese in the fridge. These gestures of kindness meant so much to us. Feloquoy is situated in a slightly elevated position so we had the most fantastic view of the hills of Hoy, and down into the Ness of Brodgar. We could even see the standing stones through our binoculars. I can't tell you how much we will miss the view from the dining room window. Orkney is a magical place, and we couldn't have asked for a lovelier basefrom which to explore some of its many wonders. Thank you!

The Cottage was a home away from from home. Rosemary was an amazing host and provided us with valuable local knowledge prior to our trip. The cottage was beautifully presented; so warm and the amenities throughout were amazing and abundant. The highlight was the gorgeous little window overlooking the seafront and the history of the cottage. Highly recommend!

David. Rachel, and Bella went out of their way to make our stay wonderful. When we were confused over a simple aspect of the shower Rachel was over in a flash to show us how to do it. We were a bit embarrassed but she was super nice and friendly and we were able to get to know her and her adorable dog. We felt we were treated as family, and would love to return.
