Garden House Rooms
About this property
Garden House Rooms offers smart, freshly finished en-suite accommodation on New Scapa Road in Kirkwall, an easy walk from the centre of town. The look is calm and contemporary, soft green tongue-and-groove panelling, crisp white linen and considered little touches, and with parking and a garden setting, it makes a relaxed, hassle-free base on Orkney's Mainland.
Rooms & comfort
The room is bright and restful, with a comfortable double bed dressed in white and sage, a quilted throw, embroidered floral cushions and reading lights to either side. There is a TV, a desk for working or planning the day, and a window looking out over the garden and greenery. The private shower room is modern and well kept, with a glazed shower, basin, WC, mirror and fresh towels. Keypad entry means you can come and go on your own schedule.
The location
You are well placed in Kirkwall, within reach of St Magnus Cathedral, the shops, cafes and restaurants, and the harbour with its ferries to the northern isles. It is a handy spot whether you are here to explore the town or using it as a launchpad for trips further afield.
Good to know
This is a room-only stay with its own en-suite, parking on site, wifi and self-check-in via keypad. The quiet garden setting and short walk into town give you the best of both, peace when you want it and everything close by when you don't.
Perfect for
Couples and solo travellers wanting a clean, modern, well-located room in Kirkwall, with the independence of keypad entry and an easy stroll to the heart of town.
