“We loved our 3 nights at Maydene. Handy to Kirkwall but away from the main drag, it was a perfect home away from home. Ellen is a perfect hostess, going that little bit extra when we needed help. View over Scarpa Flow was a real treat.”

We provide a modern, one bedroom self catering accomodation. It is newly converted, whilst providing you with a peaceful and homely stay. The accommodation is situated next to our family home. It overlooks the historic sight of Scapa Flow. We are situated in Holm, Orkney, which is less than a 10minute drive to Kirkwall (main town). We provide a welcome pack which includes: tea, coffee (and decaf), sugar, bread, milk, and butter. We also provide information about Orkney and attractions to visit. STL: OR00138F
Hi, I am Ellen who owns the accommodation. Our family home is next door to the self catering property. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you need anything.
Quiet and peaceful neighbourhood. Free parking on site. With less than a 10minute drive into the main town of Kirwall, a car is advised. However there are regular bus services and taxis available. The bus service is about a 15/20 minute walk from the accommodation.
