I loved the location of the property about 10/ 20 minutes drive from most of the historic sites we wanted to see. The house is about 10 minutes drive outside Stromness in a very quiet location, by a quiet roadside. The owner Simon was so friendly and couldn't have been more helpful and he responded to our requests for information immediately. The house has everything you need and was comfortable, warm and spotless and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the property. Love Orkney and thank you Simon for all the info and suggestions for spectacular walks, we even saw puffins at Brough of Birsay and enjoyed a delicious lunch in the Standing Stones Hotel listening to the Birsay boys play in the folk festival! Hope to return one day to explore the islands further.

What guests said about Swannay:

10

It is a lovely part of Orkney, very quiet with nice beaches...

It is a lovely part of Orkney, very quiet with nice beaches nearby and near to the north of the island, places such as Birsay which is lovely and has a a little shop with great food. It is not too far from Dounby which has a supermarket for supplies. A real dark sky area for Northern Lights enthusiasts. Evie beach is also nearby which is beautiful and has a small parking area and toilets so is good if you want a swim.
