Harbour Cottage

10/10 Excellent
"Absolutely amazing location, and great host. All the appliances worked (and we cooked frequently in the kitchen that offered space enough for 2 to be comfortable). The bedrooms at the top of the stairs were compact but had a table and chair in each, for those who need laptop or writing space. The living room was cozy. (The toilet was a bit loud, but nothing egregious.) The LOCATION was fantastic. I was concerned that possibly there would be noise from the harbor across the street…nothing. Ships came and went. There’s a good bakery, amazing butcher shop, and at least one charity shop (and museum) within walking distance, let alone a Co-op for all basic necessities. Would be glad to stay here again! Much prettier than Kirkwall. "
