Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Kirkwall

The Noddle is in a fantastic location, a short distance from the ferry and quite central on the island of Hoy & South Walls. There was only 2 of us and dogs, so it would be excellent for families & friends, but the space was great. Well equipped kitchen for cooking and baking, the lunch was bright, but the light in the conservatory was so good, comfortable day bed for relaxing, reading, drawing and soaking up the view. We took wood with us for the fire, but didn't use it as the house was lovely and warm. The garden was lovely, easy access to the burn and beach. walking distance to 'Emily's' tearoom, where we had an excellent dinner, great for special occasions (booking recommended), also walked to Scapa Flow visitor centre for lunch (quite basic). There's a lovely cafe at top end of Hoy, Beneath'ill, recommended if you are going to Rackwick - amazing beach. Been to Hoy a few times, loved our week at The Noddle. Tony was quick to respond to any queries. We'll be back.

A great place to stay for our mixed group of adults and children. The house was warm on arrival and very welcoming. We spent so much time in the kitchen / Dining room cooking meals and playing board games.

Our week on Orkney Island wouldn’t be so great without that place. As we came with children one 3 mo, it’s perfect and it feels like home. Close to the town center and shops etc. Also a good spot if you want to drive and see most important sites on the Island. Clean and cozy. Highly recommended.

The house was spacious, really well stocked and in a great location. Lizzy communicated really well and made the whole stay very easy We had a fantastic two weeks there. The garden is a good size but for anyone bringing pets it is not secure.

Great location! Great stay

The Barn is a lovely holiday home. Peaceful and in beautiful surroundings yet not far from Kirkwall and all the amenities you may need. The location is perfect for exploring the Orkney mainland and further. The Barn provides everything you need for a relaxing and cosy stay whatever the time of year. Clean, comfortable and warm. The laundry facilities came in handy. We were particularly happy to see the hen harriers and a short eared owl hunting in the fields out back of the cottage. Thank you to Robert and Janis for being 'super hosts'.

The house was lovely. It was well equipped and the facilities were very good. As Nancy had warned us, the house was not easy to find for the first time but, once we had found it, it was fine. The central location made it easy to get around but we did need a car to get to all the places we wanted to see.

Really beautiful modern property. Had everything I needed for cooking, including an air fryer!! Sammy was very good at communicating and helpful. Bed was very comfy and the livingroom is stunning. I would definitely stay here again no doubt about it.

Central but quiet, lovely cosy wee place. Decent parking was tricky to find maybe add it into welcome pack but she was amazing when we locked ourselves out with keys and my phone in flat!

We had a wonderful family holiday at Scarva. Elaine has thought of everything. The apartment is cosy, comfortable, and quiet - a perfect place to come back to after a long day exploring. Better than the images (if that's possible). A real home from home. We would love to return. Thank you!

The flat is a little gem with lots of little added things to make it pretty: pictures, photos, nice curtains etc. When we arrived the electric fire and classic FM were on. A special touch. Super quiet. The view is amazing and it is only 10 minutes walk to Stromness. Super easy to access by car and then travel into the island. Highly recommend.
