    Lovely find, comfortable and homely. We has access to a kitchen and dining area-communal. Our room was very comfy-bathroom just across the hall. Tricia was very helpful and friendly. Nice choice of breakfasts. Very dog friendly.
  • Harriet

    The breakfasts were excellent and our hostess went out of her way to make my friend and plus my two dogs feel at home. I can thoroughly recommend Scorrabrae as a welcoming and very adaptable place to stay.

    The property is quirky, quaint, comfortable and homely. The host, Patricia, and her family (and the dogs) made us feel very welcome. If we visit Orkney again we would be staying here.

Scorrabrae was originally ran as a shop...horse and cart gathering stores from ships coming in at ancient pier directly below at the Round church. It was altered to a more modern general stores selling goods and petrol..A hub of the village. The original school oposite. I bought it in 2001 and ran it as a pub restaurant.for several years before two other establishments where built within a mile of me.Then worked as a sports massage therapist and partly ran the house as self catering, while bringing up my children. I have recently joined bookings and have enjoyed working with them inviting lovely people internationally year round to The Scorrabrae...I am constantly improving Scorrabrae and look forward welcoming you soon..
