Findlays Cottage is a comfortably furnished stone built cottage on the north shore of Scapa Flow, with fine unspoilt views south over the flow and west to the hills of Hoy. It has two double bedrooms and can accomodate upto six people.
The cottage has been converted from traditional croft buildings to provide a unique environment for family holidays in one of the Orkney mainlands most popular parishes. Situated on the north shore of Scapa Flow and surrounded by six acres of open farmland, the cottage has fine views south across the Flow to the south isles and west to the hills of Hoy. The cottage is equidistant from Kirkwall and Stromness and is a mile from the south isles ferry terminal of Houton. With excellent walking country in the Orphir hills, and a short drive to Maeshowe, the Ring of Brodgar and the Standing Stones, the cottage provides a perfect base for exploring the mainland and south isles.
