Orkney Retreats

Orkney Retreats provide deluxe, self-catering holiday accommodation on the beautiful island of Sanday in Orkney.

Just a stone’s throw from white sandy beaches, and full of character, these cottages make for an idyllic getaway.

All properties boast fully-equipped kitchens, central heating, free Wi-Fi and stoves or coal fires to keep you warm during those chillier winter months.

Kilbarn Cottage

Four people can stay in Kilbarn Cottage. Nestled between sweeping sandy bays, its picture windows give ocean views from every room. Beautifully presented in a cosy Scandi style, it features an outdoor bath where you can relax and be at one with nature and the elements.
