Old Man of Hoy : locations de vacances

Beautiful home and Rachael was a great host (hands off but very responsive-just what I like). The location cannot be beat. We had a car but chose to taxi most places. Even our taxi drivers were admiring the location. The hot tub was AMAZING. We got stuck on the island an extra day due to weather conditions impacting ferry crossings. Rachael was able to accommodate an extra nights stay. Although you feel very remote, there are 3 grocery stores within 10 minutes and you have easy access to all of Kirkwall. Favorite part was the neighbor sheep….waking up and looking out to see all the sheep while you get ready was so fun!

Lovely house, very clean, and well stocked with a useful kitchen extras which made a self-catering holiday much easier and was much appreciated. Super location for us: quiet, and a great base for exploring mainland Orkney for a few days.

Most amazing location and Helen was so accommodating she made us feel so at home. We took our dogs and she was so kind in giving us towels and bowls for them aswel. We absolutely loved the Cabin, Sanday is definitely worth the trip up there, it was overall a fantastic experience and we would recommend Helen’s cabin to everyone!

This was a lovely house and a good base for exploring Caithness. The house was well equipped, the beds were very comfortable and the showers were hot. The house was lovely and warm to combat the chilly weather outside! Our hosts were friendly and check in / check out was simple. There was plenty of room for the 10 people in our party. Our children particularly enjoyed the sand dunes at Dunnet Bay and rock pooling at Ham Harbour - even in the rain. There was a nice walk from nearby Lybster Harbour along the cliff tops.

beautiful house, very tidy and clean highly recommended

Not too sure what to say about this stunning house, other than WOW WOW WOW!!! If you’re looking for the perfect base for a group or family getaway, look no further (I looked far and wide before stumbling over Keiss Harbour House and what a find!!!) From start to finish, Jill has been a fantastic host. The house was exactly as described and even better than expected! We were completely blown away. We visited Keiss as a surprise 40th birthday trip with my boyfriend and 8 of our friends. We all agreed that this is by far the best stay any of us have had. There was something for all of us, walking, to beach trips, the beautiful local town of Wick, kite surfing, diving, john o’groats, lots of delicious food. A Tesco 10 mins down the road meant we were able to make great use of the brilliantly stocked kitchen, the stew cooked in the huge slow cooker provided went down a treat after a blustery day! We aren’t ones to return to the same destination but will definitely be back!

I could not recommend this stay enough. The home was beautiful - so much space and extra comfy beds! My favorite part of the stay was waking up in the morning, looking out the window to see the beautiful landscape, fields with sheep and stunning waters. I am in awe of this beautiful stay. ❤️ Also, our hosts were so accommodating, kind and responsive! We really hope to return soon.

Wir haben leider nur 1 Nacht verbracht, das ist für dieses Tolle Hause und die schöne Gegend viel zu kurz. Insgesamt waren wir 6 Personen. Das Haus ist in einer sehr ruhigen Gegend, wenn einen die angrenzenden Schafe nicht stören :-). Wir haben uns in diesem toll ausgestatteten und schönen Haus sehr wohl gefühlt. Begeistert hat uns das Grillhaus wo alles für ein tolles Barbecue am offen Grill sogar für Flammlachs vorbereitet war. Wir haben das Grillen und das Haus sehr genossen. Die Küche ist voll ausgestattet und das Haus sehr sauber, auch die Dusche war im Vergleich zu anderen Unterkünften ein Highlight. Ist eine super Unterkunft und wärmstens zu empfehlen. Schöne Grüsse Andreas
