Hooveth

“Fantastic stay; everything you need is available. Karen, the host, is brilliant and will do what she can to make your stay a success. The location is great and ideal for getting around the island. The view over Skail Beach is stunning.”

“This was our third stay at Instabillie; it never disappoints. Clean, comfortable, and well equipped. The weather was poor but the house is so warm and welcoming, cozy with a log burner. Karen is a lovely host, friendly and helpful.”

“Karen provides a professional service from the start with swift and friendly correspondence when booking. An Orkney Islander, Karen provides a warm welcome with local produce, eggs from the hens in the garden, reading material, maps and inspiration with leaflets and personal recommendations. Best place to swim, after dinner walks, where to spot the puffins and see black and blonde wild rabbits play.”

“Karen, this was one of the most memorable trips. We loved everything about Hooveth and Orkney. We hope to return to Orkney someday soon and would never consider staying anywhere else! Thank you! Bill and Gail.”

“Lovely, peaceful location with amazing open outlook towards cliffs and sea. Excellent well equipped facility with generous sized rooms. Well heated but with a woodburning stove to add to the cozy, relaxing atmosphere.”

“I have stayed at Instabillie 5 times. The cottages are beautifully laid out and in a great location. Karen, the owner, is very friendly and helpful and nothing is ever too much trouble. The log burner is ideal on those cold nights. I come back every year & have booked for 2025. I can’t recommend them highly enough. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else.”

“Lovely cottage. Really cosy to come back to after a days walking. This is my 5th time visiting Orkney and second time staying at Instabillie. It’s the best place I’ve stayed at. Great location too.”

“Fantastic accommodation as always with fab views over Skaill Bay. We have stayed here 3 times spanning 9 years in both houses. Everything you could possibly need and Karen is always very friendly and helpful with lots of thoughtful little touches. We hope to come back again & highly recommend. Even when the weather doesn’t play ball the houses are lovely & cosy with underfloor heating. A real home away from home & great broadband and telly for the youngsters.”
