About the host
Hosted by Sammy
I am a local to Orkney, and have lived here all my life. Having started off my career in tourism with a cleaning company providing changeover services, I found a love of self catering properties and moved into management. I love interacting with visitors, providing beautiful places for them to stay whilst they visit the island, and providing them with local knowledge and a warm Orkney welcome.
Why they chose this property
3 Royal Oak court is a beautifully presented property in a lovely quiet area but within easy access of the town centre where you will find historic sites, local shops and eateries, museums and more. Just a short stroll from The Highland Park Distillery. You can enjoy the convenience of being close to all the must see sites, but retire to a quiet area to unwind and relax after a busy day exploring. The garden to the rear of the property is sheltered with high walls and the side of the house, providing a sun trap, perfect for an evening glass of wine. The property has a large driveway.
