The flat is situated at the end of a private road providing peace and relaxation. Bird life is abundant and seals, dolphins and porpoises can be seen in the area. Excellent walking starts from the doorstep; enjoy a coastal walk to the sandy beach at Swanbister Bay, a circular walk incorporating the Orkneyinga Saga Centre or go for a more demanding walk among the Orphir hills.

Inside, the fully equipped accommodation is cosy and welcoming. There are books, magazines, games and binoculars, along with maps and lots of local information to help you plan your outings. The fitted kitchen has electric cooker, fridge and automatic washing machine. The pine panelled bathroom has a three piece suite, an electric shower over the bath and a heated towel rail. The bedroom has a double bed with electric blanket. Bed linen, towels and hair dryer are all provided. After a busy day, you can relax and enjoy the views from the south facing conservatory.  The sun porch includes a comfortable sofa bed and could be used for children if required.
