Guest Reviews

• Michael (9/5): At home in Stromness - Great location, clean and comfortable. The property was exactly as described. We enjoyed our stay and had no issues.
• Andrew (10/5): A cosy, comfortable home with everything we needed. East walking within Stromness. Loved it. -
• Gary (9/5): Enjoyable, no complaints. - Very comfortable, clean and well-appointed. The Booking.com location photograph is a walk from the actual property - for me that is fine but maybe not for guests with mobility issues. I only realized this when in Stromness.
• Nik_15 (9/5): - The location is excellent. You are right in the centre of Stromness. We stayed two nights, which was sufficient to see the place and visit Kirkwall. The property is lovely quaint building. It has everything you need. Its self catering so you can stay in or eat at The Ferry Inn, which I would recommend. The owners leave you a breakfast hamper, milk, and butter, which is a nice touch. They owner is able to be contacted if you have any questions. The only thing is there is no wardrobe or drawers but space is limited to fit one in the bedroom area. There is hooks on doors.

• Rogyer (10/5): -
• Nina (10/5): A nice studio in Stromness. We recommend it. - Cosy studio, comfortable chairs and beds. Short stroll to the Center. Nottingham
• Martine (9/5): -
• Catherine (10/5): A lovely comfortable flat in a peaceful but convenient location - I had a lovely relaxing stay in this beautiful flat. The location was perfect, really convenient and easy to get to (10 mins walk from the Stromness ferry terminal) but also very quiet. Áine was really helpful and friendly. The flat had everything you might need and even a basket with some local bread and oatcakes, and milk in the fridge, which was very much appreciated. Thank you so much and I hope to be back again some day!
• Myles (9/5): I loved my stay and would recommend this spot to others - The location was great and the neighbors so hospitable I really liked the space but laundry facilities could be nice
• Matthew (10/5): A beautiful, modern well appointed apartment with plenty of character in a great location - We loved the location in the main Street of Stromness, its fittings and the art and books. It was so wonderful to be able to settle and feel at home! Nothing
• Roberts (10/5): Exceptional -
• Robbin (10/5): A perfect stay! - Beautifully decorated, cosy quiet. Well stocked with everything one would need for a stay. Comfy bed. Not far from the ferry and in a non touristy area. And easy to park in front. With excellent detailed instructions. Only problem and it is very very minor: we hit our heads on the mirror shelf when face washing or teeth brushing. It should be higher above the sink. . But that is truly minimal. And absolutely no problems otherwise.
• Laurent (10/5): Exceptional - The location and the beauty of the site Nothing really
• Andy (10/5): Self contained apartment in a historic building - This place is great, and the host is amazing. The living room is very comfortable with leather armchairs and 2 place dining table. The bedroom is separate and the bed is comfortable. The bathroom is small but functional, nice shower. The kitchen is well equipped with everything we need to cook a good evening meal. Location is on the main "road" through Stromness, a short walk to the centre of town, the harbour and the museum, a short drive to most of the Orkney prehistoric landmarks. Not much, really. Bathroom sink is a bit small.
• Brian (10/5): Relaxed and comfortable - Location was so good. Privacy was great. Provisions saw us through our stay. Kitchen was well equipped and well soundproofed. Towels were too small
• John (9/5): Superb - Lovely place to stay I wonder whether you could do up your backyard?
• Maura (10/5): Great little base for exploring Orkney. - Very thoughtful basket of food items and breakfast ingredients. Terrific advice and communication. Well thought out kitchen supplies.
• Craig (9/5): Superb - The bathroom sink was tiny with a shelf in the way
• Michelle (9/5): Superb -
• Morag (9/5): Superb -
• Laurie (9/5): The Studio was a great place to come back to a the end of a full day! - The kitchen was well equipped and the place was nicely located between the center of town and the coastal walking track No storage in the bedroom other than under the bed.
• Elizabeth (7/5): Good overall experience - Comfortable bed, homely surroundings Shower room a bit chilly
• Scott (9/5): Had a great time. - We were met at the door, given the keys and told a bit about the studio and how to work things, plus given information about the village and local events. The recommendation for the folk music night was excellent. So much better than a lock box and page of instructions!
• Rowena (8/5): Very good - Good situation and atmosphere. Helpful and charming owners.
• Maria (10/5): Exceptional - Friendly hosts and fabulous studio. It was very comfortable and an adult convenient location.
• Thierry (9/5): Superb -
• Lynne (10/5): Exceptional apartment - would definitely return - We were warmly welcomed by the host, Aine. Superb apartment handy for the ferry. Arty decor made it cosy alongside a new well-equipped kitchen and en-suite.
• Sally (10/5): A lovely, cozy and comfortable place 😊 - Lovely and cozy 😊 Great location 😊 wonderfully decorated 😊
• Jo (8/5): Warm, comfy and well equipped place with lovely host. Thank you. - Really lovely host and very helpful. Well organised and equipped flat. The food (bread, butter, milk etc) was all a lovely surprise and as it happened much needed and appreciated! Great location and Stromness is beautiful. Price was steep for one person, but reasonable for 2 sharing - but I’d booked late in season and there hadn’t been any nice, cheaper options left. I’d definitely stay again if sharing :)
• Harry (10/5): Exceptional -
