We had a fantastic time staying in the property, it was very clean and comfortable and in a very good location, there is a post office just around the corner which sells a wide selection of food and things. We would recommend to our friends.
An amazing, beautiful property next to the sea. One of the main ferries to the island docks a few hundred meters away. The location is everything youâd wish for a Scottish Island getaway, the peace and tranquility is good for the soul. The local area is pretty, with lots to see and do further away on Orkney. Robertsons coffeehoose is also a bar just up the road, and with several shops and places to eat in St Margaretâs Hope itself this property makes for a great base. Highly recommended and our thanks to the host.
The property was perfectly located and had pretty much everything we needed for Christmas and anew Year. It was warm, even in subzero temperatures. The bed was comfy and we even managed a bottle of bubbles out on the slip one evening.
We loved staying at 2 The Noust - a lovely little house in a fabulous location. The pub, PO/shop and bus stop are only a 2 minute walk away and the ferry terminal is only a 2 minute drive away. All this with peace and quiet too.
We had a very comfortable stay at St Margarets Hope. The little house has everything you need. The location on the slipway is just beautiful but it was a little chilly to take full advantage of it. We enjoyed going back and forth over the Churchill Barriers
We stayed at the Waterside Cottage in St Margaretâs Hope during our too short visit to beautiful Orkney. The cottage is situated in the charming town of St Margaretâs Hope, a drive away from the bigger enclave of Kirkwall. It met all of our needs and the views of the water from outside were gorgeous. We had ferocious weather during our stay and still we were in awe of the sunrises and sunsets, were visited by harbor seals, and witnessed more rainbows then we could count! We look forward to visiting again sometime.
We had a great experience at the home and wish it could have been longer. Our arrival was delayed by a cancelled ferry trip and the host was immediately responsive to our questions about a late arrival and made it super-easy for us. The house is exactly what you need as a peaceful base for exploring Orkney, was very clean, and met all our expectations. We highly recommend using it for your own travels!
This cottage has everything you would need in a lovely location next to the loch. St Margaret's Hope is a beautiful little village with an excellent pub/seafood restaurant and a well-stocked shop. This is a great place to explore Orkney from.
Comfortable cottage with everything you need while visiting Orkney. Stunning view from front door. Shops, bar and restaurant within walking distance. And donât miss the fish and chip van when it visits on a Saturday.
Host found EarPods left behind and kindly returned to us by post.
A wonderful property in a magnificent location. Owner could not have been more friendly or more helpful. She truly went the 'extra mile on several occasions for us to make it an unforgettable holiday, and 10th. Anniversary experience. Thank you Tracey.
We were welcomed at the doorstep by our host. Located by the Harbour, we watched the fisherman bring his catch in, which probably appeared on our plates at the Murray Arms later on. The cottage had everything needed for a two night stay to explore the Orkneys and was close to the ferry. St Margaretâs Hope has an interesting craft shop.
Traceyâs property was perfect for the my wife and I. Fully equipped right down to washing liquid for the pots. The waterside location is in one of the most attractive villages in Orkney. Overall we couldnât fault it
Lovely and cosy, well equipped for all your needs, bed very comfortable and had a lovely peaceful sleep.
Situated in a very friendly village, a stone throw from the ferry which lights up the bay in the evening.
Would recommend this property to others with no hesitation.
A great location. The cottage was great for two but would have been crowded for more than that. A bit short on plates, cutlery and cooking equipment and a house book with instructions for TV, heaters etc. would have been very useful. We have though recommended it to a number of other people and we had a great time.
