Modern house, newly refurbished for 2018. Ideally situated in Kirkwall with a 10 minute walk to the centre of town or 15 minute walk to Scapa beach. An excellent base for exploring all Orkney has to offer. We are walking distance or short drive to the Highland Park and Scapa whisky distilleries. If you are a whisky enthusiast then this location will be ideal for you.
Busy mum of 2, enjoying family life. Happy to help with any questions you may have about my holiday home or your trip to Orkney in general.
24 Old Scapa Road is situated in a residential area and within walking distance to all the main attractions in Kirkwall.
