8/10 Good
"This was expensive for what it was but I guess there are a lot of tourists in Orkney and not a lot of accommodation! Over £200 a night for a small room, double bed (not king). The rate did include breakfast, which was adequate (order from list the night before). The hotel did have a restaurant - food was fine - and a bar and friendly barman. Staff were lovely altogether. I have never been to Orkney before so can’t make any comparisons but I suspect this may be among the better places to stay. Lots of room to park the car. Sea view."

"We loved the tour of the facility and our room. Help with parking was so useful for ease of getting out of the lot. My wife needed medicine kept cold and ice packs frozen and had no issues having this done for us. Because we were leaving before breakfast a to go meal was provided for us."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Orphir?
The best area to stay in Orphir is near the main village centre and along the coast, particularly around the Houton and Waulkmill Bay areas.These areas offer convenient access to the local amenities and the stunning coastal scenery that Orphir is known for. You'll find a few local shops and eateries, and the roads are generally quiet, making it pleasant for leisurely strolls or drives. The Houton ferry terminal, connecting to Hoy, is also located here, which is handy for day trips.Couples looking for a peaceful escape will appreciate the accommodation options closer to Waulkmill Bay. This area is renowned for its beautiful sandy beach and opportunities for coastal walks, offering a tranquil setting away from any hustle and bustle. Many properties here boast views of the bay or the surrounding countryside, great for relaxing evenings.For those interested in history and local heritage, staying closer to the Orphir Round Church and the Earl's Bu will be ideal. This central part of Orphir provides easy access to these significant historical sites, allowing for a deeper understanding of the area's past.
When is the best time to go to Orphir?
The best time to visit Orphir is during the warmer months, specifically from May to September, when the weather is generally milder and the days are long.During this period, you'll experience the best of Orkney's natural beauty, with wildflowers in bloom and opportunities for wildlife spotting. The longer daylight hours mean more time to explore the archaeological sites and coastal paths without feeling rushed. This is particularly appealing for couples looking for extended walks and photography opportunities.Families, in particular, will find these months ideal. The milder weather makes outdoor activities, such as exploring the Churchill Barriers or visiting the Italian Chapel, much more comfortable for children.
