I’ve just returned from the loveliest stay at this little house. The place itself is incredibly cosy — the kind of space that instantly makes you feel at home. Everything was spotless, thoughtfully arranged, and had everything I needed.
The shower was honestly amazing — powerful, warm, and one of the best I’ve had while travelling. It’s such a small detail but makes such a big difference, and this place absolutely delivered.
The hosts were exceptional. They were so accommodating, friendly, and genuinely went above and beyond to make sure the stay was comfortable. Communication was easy and they made everything feel effortless.
Location was great, around a 10 minute drive to Kirkwall. Views were lovely.
Overall, a beautiful little getaway with wonderful people behind it. I’d absolutely stay again and highly recommend.

I had the most perfect stay! The location is great & the facilities on offer were exceptional. Fresh milk in the fridge & little extra bits to make cooking/ tea making convenient. I have to mention the amazing shower! I will definitely be back next time I’m working in Orkney.
There is nothing I didn’t like. The hosts have thought of everything!

We had a great stay, Maydene was perfect for our short stay and had everything we needed. It's a short drive from Kirkwall and central for all the other attractions. The bed was comfortable and the ensuite toilet was large with an excellent shower.

We chose to be away from town. Rural was good for us and only short drive to ammenities with a car. Well equipped, and the supplied bread and milk were appreciated nice touch.
Very clean and well maintained with homey touches.
Could really use a French press for coffee. A plug in bathroom for hair dryer would be great. Allergy sensitivity so fragrance in sheets and air fresheners were removed.

This place is fantastic! It's a modern and cozy little burrow with a fantastic view overlooking the hills and sea, not far from Kirkwall and very close to the Italian Chapel and Churchill barriers. It's really all you could wish for as a temporary home to explore the beautiful Orkney islands. There is a fully equipped kitchen, a very comfortable bed, and a very spacious shower. The interior is held in modern Scandi design, and the apartment is super clean. Ellen is a wonderful host who even provided for some milk, bread, and butter, which was so nice! We came to Orkney from the Aberdeen ferry, so we arrived shortly before midnight, but the late check-in was no issue at all. Thank you, Ellen, for this wonderful experience. I can 100% recommend and would not book anywhere else!

Beautiful little place to stay. Very clean and modern. Lovely view over the road to a field and on to the sea. About a 10 minute drive to Kirkwall.

The property is ideal for a couple. It is compact but comfy. There is a small modern kitchen area, a small table to eat at and a two seater settee all in the same room. The bed was comfortable and the power shower in the en-suite was excellent. The location was ideal as well, 15 minutes from both St Margaret’s Hope and Kirkwall.

The location was great, central to both ferries. The property was fresh and new, very clean. There was everything we needed at the property, from towels to information regarding the area, to breakfast food for our first morning.

The property was lovely, clean, new and very well designed. Equipment with with everything you need for a comfortable stay.
I had trouble working the heating/ air conditioning and would have liked instruction. I’m sure I could have asked for help from the owners but it seemed like a small thing at the moment and I didn’t. I’m hind sure it would have made the stay more comfortable if we could have controlled the system.

Very nice well appointed apartment, the bedroom and bathroom were particularly good. If you are after a quiet rural location and are happy to cook this is perfect, but you will need transport to get around or get to any restaurants etc.
The kitchen/lounge is a bit small though perfectly suitable for a couple.

Property was spotlessly clean and well supplied.
The stay here was a part of a much longer trip, we need to wash some clothes and unfortunately there was no where to dry them. A clothes drying rack would have been useful.

it was so clean and roomy. great bed. thank you for a lovely night.
just a suggestion, payment through booking.com is easier for a traveler. I was worried about using PayPal whether or not you’d receive payment and if my Wi-Fi would work to send it.

Very new, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Centrally located and a short distance from Kirkwall. A lot of thought has been put in by the hostess to have some nice refinements. We really enjoyed our stay and would stay again for sure.
