Here's a very nice, clean and hospitable place to stay near Stromness on the main island of Orkney. Eileen and Tom go out of their way to ensure you have a pleasant and happy visit with them. Eileen even sent me an email to wish me a happy return home to the States. The rooms are tidy and clean. Free... More

My husband and I were recently stormed in an extra day, the Worthingtons were above and beyond with thier kindness. The rooms are tidy, cosy and well appointed. Breakfadt if you are B & B-ing it is excellent. Tom and Eileen were very knowledgeable about good spots to eat on the island. The upstairs guest lounge is a great place... More

Tom & Eileen were very welcoming and helpful. Even emailing us to find out how we got on when they found out that our trip to Shetland was in doubt when we had been let down by the Guest House there. Would definately go back.

Eileen & Tom Worthington are excellent hosts and have a great place up on the hill out of Stromness, with stunning views over the harbour to Hoy. Tom lent me a pair of binoculars for our time there which was unasked for and much appreciated. I'm busy planning my next trip to Orkney and I'll gladly stay with them again.... More

We stayed four nights at Lindesfarne in August 2010. When our ferry arrived in Stromness I called to get directions; the B&B was easy to find and convenient to the ferry. Eileen met us at the door. Throughout our stay the Worthington's went our of their way to make our stay comfortable. From helping us with reservations at Maeshowe (highly... More

Lindisfarne is only a short way out of Stromness with good views over it and out to the hills on Hoy. The rooms are spacious and the welcome warm. (Walls between rooms are a bit thin so that noise does percolate through, but not to the extent of being a great problem). Stromness is a good location for West Mainland.... More

We've been in Stromness last week, on our (far too short) trip to scotland. We really loved this B&B we booked from Italy! Our room was big and clean with a huge king size double bed and an amazing view on the fields. The bathroom was lovely and clean. Mr and Mrs. Worthington really nice and great hosts (Mr. Worthington... More

Stayed in the Lindisfarne self catering cottage last July for a week and it was the best experience I've had of self catering anywhere! Mr & Mrs Worthington couldn't do enough to please us during our stay and there was not one thing that wasn't provided in the accommodation - from coffee maker to salt in the cupboards....I'd rate this...

Stayed at Lindisfarne, just outside Stromness, for a long weekend. Hosts very friendly and helpful (even gave us a lift into town for a night out, to save us driving). Bedrooms all ensuite, very clean, with usual facilities (tea and coffee, etc). Lounge available on first floor for guests, with TV, books and plenty of tourist info. Only minor criticism... More
