Positioned on the island of South Walls in the tranquil location of Longhope, Orkney is this fantastically constructed holiday home, The Steading.
Enjoying off-road parking, an enclosed garden, stunning views and close proximity to essential amenities, The Steading welcomes six guests to bask in the perfect rural retreat.
Impress your guests with delicious feasts using the sleek kitchen, equipped with all the necessary appliances and even a handy dishwasher so the stress of washing up becomes a distant memory! Allow your loved ones to unwind around the dining table, toasting to a fun-filled holiday over a bottle of fizz or venture out to the wrap-around decking to fully appreciate the panoramic vistas that envelope the property.
When the evening grows cooler, retreat to a spacious sitting room and snuggle up in the warmth of a woodburning stove whilst enjoying some light entertainment on the Smart TV.
When sleep calls, choose from one of three immaculately-presented bedrooms including a king-size with en-suite shower room, a double and a ground-floor twin, ensuring all sleeping arrangements are well-catered for.
Upon morning, start your day in the bathroom where you can indulge a soak in the tub or freshen up in the generously-sized walk-in shower before exploring your surroundings.
From your doorstep, pay a visit to the Hackness Martello Tower and Battery which enjoys delightful views across Longhope Sound to Scapa Flow or enrich your historical knowledge with a trip to Longhope Lifeboat Museum, where you can even clamber aboard an old lifeboat and hear the inspiring stories of those who volunteer.
Hill of White Hamars is also only a short distance away, boasting impressive coastal features, cliffs, and several caves; it also provides superb short-range viewing opportunities of a range of cliff-nesting seabirds, ideal for nature lovers.
The Dwarfie Stone, Old Man of Hoy, Rackwick Beach and Braebister Mound are all also accessible from here by car and guarantee a fascinating day out for all the family.
Choose The Steading as your next home-from-home and explore all that Orkney has to offer.
