I was asked to use this B&B by my customer on Orkney as it is just up the road from their site. I found it to be a very clean and nice B&B with some nice touches. I had the downstairs double bed room with en-suite and it was very comfortable. It had all the normal extras plus a continental... More

Margaret and her husband are lovely hosts, who keep this cute place impeccably clean and make a tasty and generous breakfast. The room we had was cosy and well equipped, nice and airy, with a modern shower, fast wifi, a flat screen TV and a loo that flushes with aplomb. Apparently some people have complained about it lacking modernity, perhaps... More

My family (four adults) took the two twin rooms at the top of the stairs for three nights in June. Twin beds pressed against opposite sides of the room had the feel of a Draylon-loving 70s bedsit, or something out of On The Buses. But the ensuite bathroom was pleasantly large and the shower powerful and spacious. Breakfast (to be... More

We had the front room and the street light penetrated through the curtains. We found the room extremely cramped and the ensuite minute. If you wished to boil the kettle whilst re-charging your electrical appliances, you had to unplug the extension to the bedside lamps. A dated and akward room with uncomfortable beds and pillows. An adequate breakfast but for... More

Looked a fine house and we were greeted by the owner on arrival and shown to our room on the top floor. The first thing we had to do was fill in a card for breakfast with what we wanted and when we would like it and we were told to be on time. Well the room looked fine but... More

We will return and thank you for your recommendations were to go, what... More

A friend and I stayed at the Bon Accord for two nights at the beginning of September 2006. She had booked the accommodation throught the internet, as it seemed to be relatively near the center of Mainland. The B&B was relatively easy to locate, as it is on the main road out of town heading towards the causeway to the... More
