We are easily found right beside the fourth Churchill Barrier with superb unbroken views over Scapa Flow towards the Hoy Hills.

Throughout your stay you can enjoy high quality accommodation in a friendly, welcoming environment.
You will also have access to our expansive garden where there is ample seating for you to relax and take in the view across Water Sound during our long summer evenings.
To set you up for the day ahead, we provide a comprehensive, tasty hot and cold breakfast menu, ranging from a full Scottish breakfast, to lighter fruit and cereal options.
We also offer a packed-lunch option, so you have everything you need whilst exploring the many attractions, sites and wildlife across the Islands.
