Our stay at Holland House was an absolute joy. Jan and John were meticulous in their care and attention to detail and provided exemplary standards of service. The double room was a delight - tastefully furnished and decorated. We liked the large comfortable bed, the piping hot water and the views from the bath over the Hoy hills were stunning.... More

Holland House is a fantastic place to stay during any trip to Orkney and well deserving of the 5* rating. The hospitality shown by Jan and John is tremendous making your stay feel very special. The house and gardens are beautiful, the real fire burning in the guest lounge makes you want to stay even longer than you originally planned.... More

We stayed for 7 nights and were so pleased with the standards acheived and maintained by Jan, the owner , in terms of hospitality and facilities. Excellent double room with a view and tasty and well prepared breakfasts. A truly excellent stay- unreservedly recommend

My husband and I spent two nights in the twin room at Holland House and we found it excellent.

This was the second time we have stayed and it was every bit as good as the last time. The location is good, nowhere is very far up here, and Jan and John are wonderfully welcoming hosts. The house is peaceful and the rooms are immaculate, the breakfast is superb, the Westray smoked haddock and one of Jan's scones is... More

Holland House was wonderful. Jan was a gracious and generous host. The food was marvellous and nothing was too much trouble, including doing my washing and greeting me whenever i returned. I cannot recommend Holland House highly enough. It is truly a 'home away from home'.

We stayed five nights. The accommodation is lovely, the food excellent, and Jan and John are superb hosts. They know just how to combine a relaxed and friendly approach with a flawless standard, and really go the extra mile to help. The location is good, too - handy for all the main sights on Mainland and for ferries to other... More
