Havrock

Havrock is a bright family home on Cromwell Drive with one detail that lifts it above the ordinary — a proper view over the water. From the upstairs windows you look out across the harbour to the boats, the working pier and the low Orkney hills beyond, the kind of outlook you don't tire of. It's a comfortable, well-furnished house that's clearly set up to make a group feel at home.

Inside

The living and dining area is relaxed and homely: a soft grey-blue sofa, a chunky oak sideboard with a lamp, a large framed woodland print on the wall and a wooden dining table with dark upholstered chairs at the far end under a cheerful striped pendant. There's a calm, lived-in feel to it. The kitchen is a galley run in warm timber units with a built-in oven and microwave, washing machine, dishwasher and open glass shelving — fully sorted for cooking proper meals, and there's a separate dining spot laid up with crockery, a fruit bowl and a vase of fresh flowers ready for breakfast.

Where you'll sleep

Three bedrooms share the space. The main double has a solid oak frame, green-and-white scatter cushions, framed coastal prints and a window framing the rooftops and water. A second double is done in soft grey tones with leaf-print curtains, bedside lamps and rolled towels set out. The rooms are quiet, neutral and easy to settle into.

Step outside

The standout is that harbour view — boats coming and going, the pier at work and the hills across the water make a genuinely lovely backdrop, and there's parking right at the house.

The setting

Havrock's position gives you the water on one side and easy reach of town on the other, so you're well placed for everything across Orkney — shops, ferries and the wider Mainland are all close at hand.

Perfect for

Three bedrooms sleeping 6, family-friendly, with that sea view, parking and laundry on site — a solid choice for a family or group who want comfort, space and a memorable outlook.
