Alojamientos vacacionales en Eday

Of 60 or so places we have stayed at Airbnb, this has been the best Airbnb experience we’ve had! Given that this is a special trip (our honeymoon, which we had not mentioned before showing up) we feel very fortunate indeed! Stewart was an absolutely phenomenal host. So thoughtful and kind. But not imposing or ‘ever present’; just enough for a nice chat when we bump into one another out in the garden, and for some wonderful home-baked treats :) Stewart’s advice about getting last-minute tickets to Maeshowe (just a few minutes down the lane) was spot on and was the only reason we were able to visit. The place is really relaxed and quiet, a place to really unwind. It is a perfect base for exploring these wonderful islands, centrally located with all that’s needed just a 10 minute drive or a short bike ride away. We will certainly be back for an anniversary, as this place holds a special place in our hearts.

Two of us, plus our two dogs, had the Noddle to ourselves so we had plenty of room. It was exactly as described. Had everything you needed plus very comfy bed. It was lovely to have the fire going and also to sit in the conservatory which was so toasty. I even had a go at sketching and playing the piano! Emilys tea room is such an easy walk and we had a delicious supper with her plus coffee the morning we checked out. Thank you Tony.

We were a group of 5 adults, who spent the weekend of the Orkney Blues festival at Karens house. she kindly let us drop off luggage etc in advance of check-in. The house is well equipped with good quality equipment, towels and linen. Beds were comfortable, showers good with ample hot water. A well equipped Kitchen and comfortable leather suite in the lounge. Wifi worked well as did the modern flat screen tv. We all felt right at home and comfortable, without feeling anyways cramped for space. There is a large raised garden to the rear with a large sturdy picnic table at the top , which would be perfect for sitting out on a sunny day. We all agreed we would have no hesitation in booking the house again in the future. Karen was so easy to deal with and responsive to our questions at all stages of our stay. Many thanks Karen.

Widefirth 2 was a very comfortable cottage with everything we needed. Lots of space, warm and cosy. Kitchen was well equipped and the welcome hamper with all local produce was very much appreciated. Lounge furnishings were very comfortable and there was good quality bed linen. The large enclosed garden was very much appreciated by our Bernese Mountain dog, who enjoyed exploring. There are spectacular views across the bay, however unfortunately due to the wet weather the paths were a little muddy and we didn’t get to explore the walks as much as we wanted to. Although Widefirth is a little off the beaten track, it is well signposted and is a good location for exploring the Island. Kirkwall was only a 15-20 minute drive and around 30-40 minutes drive to the Ferry terminal at St. Margaret’s Hope. Greig’s wife welcomed us and Greig came to ask how we enjoyed our stay before leaving. I would definitely recommend Widefirth to friends and family, and would definitely stay with them again

We absolutely loved our stay, the cottage was everything we wanted and looked for. Evelyn is a fantastic host and provides an amazing cottage to stay in. Immaculate, peaceful and the best location, only a few minutes from Stromness. We will be back.

Stayed here as attending the Blues Festival, Hazel’s place was good as it was on the edge of Stromness so quiet and peaceful but an easy walk into Town. Everything we needed was catered for, made use of washing machine and tumble dryer for our swimming gear. Would recommend, Hazel was friendly and helpful.

Comfort in the country! Lovely stay. Right in the heart of the Neolithic sites - so close to all of them. You wake up surrounded by fields & birds (and chickens) yet it is also the best-equipped house we've ever stayed in! The kitchen is so light & airy, with a comforting rustic Aga, but it's kitted-out with the poshest gadgets - cappuccino-maker, air fryer, large ice-maker etc. And a cupboard full of goodies. Even an electric blanket in the bedroom! Bookshelves are filled with guides and books on birds ... there was also our own personal itinerary, describing everything that was going on during our week. Thank you for it all.

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
