Vacation rentals with beach access in Orkney

Bert’s apartment was excellent. It was even better in real life than on the pictures. We had two dogs and a toddler with us and were all very comfortable for the duration of our stay. Bert was an excellent host. Really friendly and accommodating. I’d definitely recommend a stay with him.

Evelina was very approachable and accommodating. The flat was a perfect, cosy wee base for me and my dog :) I hope to be back.

We stayed in the Loft. It was fantastic and cozy fireplace, full kitchen and comfy beds. There is a sweet cat on site always looking for a head scratch and just down the road is a standing stone, sandy (I’ll be it cold lol) beach, and ruins just behind the church. Stunning location and amazing owners. They really care about what they do and are quick with support and enthusiasm for the area. Would happily book this place again and again.

It had everything we hoped for fantastic location and greig was very accommodating.

Nice place, Great view across the bay, Great host, Place was very clean and tidy and would certainly recommend. Plenty of parking space. We certainly had a lovely week at this property.

Our stay at Joan's was even better than we hoped for. A beautiful house in a stunning location. It was great for our young children and really well laid out. The central kitchen and living space was wonderfully open, bright but also cosy in the evenings. Being close to the beach and the amazing walk along the cliffs was also fantastic. And the shower is one of the best we've ever had. Would strongly recommend staying here to anyone considering a break on Orkney and who wants to be somewhere a bit more tranquil.

We absolutely loved out stay at Peedie Cott. It was one of the cutest most spotlessly clean, thoughtful Airbnbs we've ever stayed in. From the start, Cathy's instructions made it very easy to access the property. We arrived into a beautifully decorated, super cosy and comfortable little haven, which was in the centre of the small village of St. Margaret's Hope making it very easy to get around. The cottage was very well equipped with everything we needed and Cathy left great instructions on how everything worked (heating, wifi etc.). The whole place was immaculate. Lovely touches included the wood burning stove and the lovely little hamper and fresh milk Cathy left us. She had left lots of amenities in the bathroom in case we'd forgotten anything which was just so kind, she'd really gone the extra mile. We felt it was a very special stay and we wouldn't hesitate to return, I hope we can. If you've booked this property you're in for a treat and if you're thinking about it, just do it!

A one-of-a-kind stay in an unparalleled location! We so enjoyed reading about the history of the kirk and its caretakers over the years; the island of Hoy is rich with hikes, views, museums, fresh air, and peaceful interludes. Worth the ferry trips to stay here! (Just be advised that if you’re coming at or after the end of September, or arriving on a Sunday, you’d do well to get groceries on the main island ahead of your visit bc there will be few to no options for food service on Hoy. We did and were so grateful we had!)

Stevens place was very cute and in a great location. It’s a good spot if you have kids.

Having been to Orkney many times but needing accommodation for a family wedding, we couldnt have asked for a better place to stay, we could see the venue from the window. My crawling grandson was with us and Vanessa had stairgates up and a highchair in place and he had plenty room to play. There was honestly everything there that you could maybe have forgotten and was so well stocked. We hope we had left everything in okay order as we had to leave the island quicker than expected as our ferry was cancelled and had to get an early morning one. Would definitely return here and have already recommended this property.

The most incredible property with a wonderful, genuine host who went above and beyond. We couldn't have asked more from our perfect stay and nothing was too much hassle. Would 100% recommend to anyone thinking of an Orkney escape
