About this house rental

An old fisherman’s cottage built with the help of a few salvaged ships beams and masts, Harbour Cottage is one of Stromness’ original houses pre-dating any modern record keeping. Sitting on the harbour front and directly across from the Ferry Terminal and Travel Centre, it places you in the heart of the town known as The Venice of The North. With private parking directly outside, you are only a 5 minute drive from the heart of Neolithic Orkney and it’s globally renowned UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Step inside Harbour Cottage and you’ll find a tastefully refurbished and unique house, with a separate kitchen/dining room leading to a sitting room with adjacent w/c and shower room downstairs. Upstairs are two double bedrooms with one overlooking the harbour front.

Location couldn’t be better, lovely band warm and well equipped. David is particularly helpful and oh so knowledgable about the area and things to do. We would definitely go back there again. You’ll love it, honestly 😘 Chris & Heather (the love of my life)

After driving there in the cold rain and parking right in front, we opened the door and were greeted by a fire in the gas fireplace and soft music playing. It was immaculate and cozy and a great location. We were close to all the sites we wanted to see plus the grocery store was down the street. Scara Brae and Maeshowe were amazing as were the other sites but we did not realize how much we would love Stromness itself, which we could walk to right from the house. Plus we were walking distance from several good restaurants. We highly recommend this place for a couple or family.

Harbour Cottage is ideally situated within walking distance to the ferry terminal and the town of Stromness. It’s is very clean and well maintained property, with parking right out front. It was our home for three nights in April.

harbour cottage is the perfect place to stay,to see mainland orkney ,if you only have two days to vist the amazing archaeological sites {like we did} there is a really good cafe next doar for a fryup in the morning or there is a bakery {post office ect} that does bacon rolls from 7.30 in the morning {like we did} maeshowe,tomb of the eagles,italian chapel,skaerabrae,ect are no more than 30 mins drive away ,and when you return to harbour cottage, freezing cold,and soaking wet {like we did} you come back to a really warm,nice cottage {good shower} there is a good place to eat 100 mtrs away or if you want takeaway ,thats about 500 mtrs {like we did} and there is good craic in the local pubs too{like we did} this is a great place to stay ,thank you very much mr harrold ,cheers colin
