Set in Orkney and only 14 km from Maeshowe, Aultnagar Accommodation offers accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking. Offering a garden, the property is located within 16 km of Standing Stones of Stenness. Ring of Brogdar is 17 km away and Ness of Brogdar is 16 km from the bed and breakfast. My husband and I enjoyed our stay with Laura and Brian immensely. There we cookies, pastries, tea and coffee really available upon arrival and throughout our entire stay. For the self catered breakfast, there were lots of hot/cold cereals, breads, pastries (gluten-free options), juices, yogurts, local cheeses, and all the fixings. Each morning, Laura had scones or some other baked good heating in the oven. Heating your own food for dinner or eating take out was an option, too, which we took advantage of one evening. Our room was very beautiful, modern, and cozy with a very comfortable bed. The whole place was spotless. Laura suggested restaurants and places of interest off the beaten path. She was a gracious, thoughtful, wonderful host - some of the best hospitality on our month long trip! Thanks for everything, Laura. We loved our stay with you. Highly recommend.

Situated in Kirkwall, 16 km from Maeshowe and 18 km from Standing Stones of Stenness, Orkneyinga offers air conditioning. The property has quiet street views and is 19 km from Ring of Brogdar and 17 km from Orkney Fossil and Heritage Centre, Burray. The apartment also features free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. I gave this property 5 stars because there was nothing to dislike. Very nicely decorated and well equipped little house right in the center of Kirkwall that felt like a home from home. I had my choice of the two bedrooms and opted for the back bedroom which was wonderfully quiet with a comfy bed and choice of pillows. The welcome basket was very generous and the price for two nights was very reasonable. It is surrounded by shops and coffee places. I fully recommend this to anyone as a great option to a hotel.
