We had a very pleasant stay at the Royal Oak guesthouse. The room was clean and comfortable. Alice and Eric were very nice and helpful. Eric helped me fix a problem with my bicycle which was stored safely in the garage. The breakfast was a treat and we were able to get a washing done. We will surely return when we are in the neighborhood.

Lovely hosts, very friendly and helpful with local attractions, the even had road maps for hirers to borrow. The cottage was beautifully presented with quality furnishings, fully equipped kitchen, great WiFi and a TV in each room. The washer, dryer and dishwasher were welcomed as well as the tasty locally produced treats left for us to enjoy.

Everything was perfect !! The location was a short drive from Kirkwall which meant we had the opportunity to visit some of the smaller villages enroute. Teresa and Malcolm, our hosts, welcomed us into their home and gave us many insightful tips about Orkney that made our trip run more smoothly. The breakfast was fresh and delicious each day and the room was generous in size with quality inclusions and a most incredible view! We most certainly recommend this accommodation for visitors to Orkney !!

    Eric, our host, was very friendly and helpful, recommending local restaurants. We were impressed with his energy, bearing in mind that his wife had just given birth to her first child! The room and bathroom were very well renovated with all mod cons. The shower and heating controls were both easy to operate. A very comfortable and quiet stay.
