Broad Street Gardens - Superior Apartment

Step inside and the ceiling lifts away above you. This superior apartment is a real surprise – a galleried split-level space with a vaulted ceiling, exposed timber beams and a mezzanine looking down over the living room. It feels bright and generous from the moment you walk in, with light coming through tall windows and greenery just outside the glass.

Inside

The open-plan living and dining area is built for a group. Two teal sofas face each other across a low table, there's a TV in the corner and a solid wooden dining table with seating for everyone. The kitchen is fully fitted with an oven, hob and extractor, set just off the dining end so the cook stays part of the conversation. Coastal prints on the walls and warm carpet underfoot keep it homely, and there's WiFi and a washer for longer stays.

Where you'll sleep

There are two bedrooms across the two levels, sleeping five in all. One has a double bed dressed in white linen with solid oak furniture, a chest of drawers and a mirror; the mezzanine adds a further sleeping area up under the eaves, reached by the open staircase. It's a layout that suits a family or two couples sharing.

The setting

You're well placed to explore the heart of Orkney, with shops, cafes and the islands' main sights within easy reach. The apartment makes a comfortable, roomy base whether you're here for a few nights or a full week.

Perfect for

Families and small groups of up to five who want space to spread out – the extra living room, full kitchen and washer make it easy to settle in and treat the place as your own.
