Newbigging Cottage is the perfect location to get away from the stresses of work, the busy city life or just to relax in peace and quiet. It is situated on a hill and so has beautiful panoramic views over the surrounding farmland and Orkney landscape.
From Newbigging Orkney self catering accommodation you have breathtaking views of the Hoy Hills in the south, the lochs of Stenness and Harray to the southeast and views over the parishes of Sandwick, Harray and Birsay, giving a fantastic feel of Orkney.
You will be greeted by birdsong and the contented grazing of the farm animals in the surrounding fields each day and perhaps see a tractor working in the distance.
Rabbits, hares, larks, wrens, starlings, black birds, swallows, geese, the occasional hen harrier and heron are your nearest neighbours!
The cottage is beautifully and tastefully decorated. Comfort and convenience in a home from home in a stunning setting.
The family farm raises beef cattle and sheep and we are happy to answer any questions or help you plan your day. Dave is a keen trout fisherman and sea angler and will happily share his knowledge. Kay enjoys walking and has a good knowledge of her birthplace, being a proud Orcadian.
Newbigging Cottage is the perfect location for trout fishing and goose shooting, please get in touch for more information.
