Cuween Cottage near Finstown, Mainland
2
Rural hideaway bothy for two, with sea-view, woodburner and wifi; ideal for a week of walking, angling, archaeology, birdwatching - or just sitting back and enjoying the tranquillity. Cuween Cottage is a 19th-century farm-worker's dwelling, which sits below Cuween Hill chambered cairn, looking out across the islands in the Bay of Firth. There are many holiday properties in Orkney which have been built and finished to modern standards: this is not one of them. The cottage has been de-modernised, with all internal walls removed and fireplaces re-opened.
