We stayed here our first night in Orkney opting to move onward to another B&B (which is highly recommended by others) in Kirkwall for the rest of the trip... what a mistake as this was the far superior property. We had two rooms of this small B&B between myself, my boyfriend and my sister. The rooms are average sized. We had a large bathroom and closet in our room. The decoration is very simple, almost spartan but who wants to spend any time in the room when this house is set on the hill above the harbor with an amazing view! With nightime non-existant we spend more than our share of time sitting out looking at the views. The breakfast was fantastic as well. The hosts were very nice and helpful in dinner recommendations. It is a quick walk or drive to downtown. Stromness is a really nice town too. I perfered it over Kirkwall for it's simplicity and friendliness. It is also a better location by which to explore the nearby neolithic sites. Unfortunately, they do not take credit cards so be prepared to pay your bill in cash. Great experience overall.
