The accommodation was spacious and very comfortable with everything you needed. The deck was great for sitting out and having dinner and taking in the fantastic views of the countryside! We loved that it was so quiet and peaceful. Highly recommend the Rymmon Retreat if you're looking for somewhere comfy and peaceful to stay on Orkney!

A wonderful place to stay as long as you don't mind driving. It was semi centrally located to most sites you may want to visit while in Orkney. The staff was excellent and extremely helpful. Breakfast was delicious and prepared to order. The restaurant offered a nice variety of meals for dinner as well as beer, wine, and cocktails. The tv room/lounge was always available if you wanted somewhere to unwind. The staff was also kind enough to allow me to stay there a couple of hours after checkout while awaiting my ferry. I highly recommend this hotel.

From arrival we were met with a friendly lady on reception, unfortunately I can't remember her name but she was very helpful, professional and made us feel welcome. The hotel in general was clean, tidy and had a homely feel. Myself and my partner had a great sleep, comfortable bed and a warm and clean room. We were just a few minutes walk away from everything that we needed. We didn't use the other facilities in the hotel but we definitely will if we return again in the future.

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.
