"We found Annie’s Place to be very central for getting to all parts of the island. The accommodation was very comfortable and had everything you needed. Anne & Robin were very helpful with lots of information about the island and what to see and do. Will definitely go back."

"Anne and Robin are amazing hosts even during the time of Covid they made sure we had everything we need with regular checkin via emails. Both have a wealth of knowledge on the local area to give us ideas on walks and local heritage attractions. On arrival we found Annie’s place spotless and welcoming with a government guidelines form completed. During our stay Annie’s place we found it was the perfect location for all our needs. Anne and Robin make it like a home from home and was always warm and cosy to come back to after a day outdoors."

"Lovely hosts Robin and Anne were so friendly and welcoming and knowledgeable about things to do! Annie’s Place has everything you need for a comfortable stay and practical to with a washer/dryer, functional flooring etc without losing the homely sense. A welcome hamper including treats for our dog was waiting including fresh rolls and Orkney Butter in the fridge :) We will definitely book to stay again next year, it was a privilege to stay in such a historical village.

"This lovely cottage met all my expectations, warm and comfortable and right by the sea, with Anne and Robin on hand to offer a great welcome and friendly chat and advice. It is in an absolutely lovely, quiet spot with coastal walks straight from the front door, seals, birds, sunsets, crashing waves, sunshine ... 1,000 mile round trip for me was more than worthwhile! "

"Our third stay at Annie's Place and it is as welcoming as ever. Anne & Robin take great care to ensure your comfort, even with the limitations created by a pandemic. They truly go the extra mile and it was a welcome return to somewhere that is starting to feel like home from home. The garden is stunning this year too!"

The cottage was very cosy and warm and welcoming. Anne, our host, could not have done more to welcome us. It’s a beautiful location, and would be fantastic in the summer with lovely weather.

I stayed at Annie’s Place on my own over the Christmas week. I made a great choice! The location is great for coastal walks, big and small. The accommodation is cozy. It has everything a daily life requires, in terms of kitchen utensils and dishes, hangers, towels, windows that can be locked if needed.... But even if you find there’s something missing all you have to do is ask. Anne and Robin, who run Annie’s place, are lovely lovely lovely people and praiseworthy hosts.

We found Annie's Place to be the perfect cottage, a fabulous location, comfy and well equipped and the owners very friendly and helpful. Dog friendly, a shop next door, a cafe a few minutes away and all the sights within easy reach on an excellent road network.

Annie’s place is set in a beautiful location, it has everything; coastline on the doorstep and amazing walks for viewing wildlife and history! The hosts have thought of everything, and created an ideal holiday home, spotlessly presented.

This is the 4th time we have stayed at Annie's Place and we love it. My two boys (10 and 8) were so excited to be back. Anne and Robin are amazing hosts and their garden is so colourful. The accommodation has everything you could possibly need and is presented beautifully. With the beach at the end of the garden and so much to see and do in the local area, you could happily spend a week here without driving anywhere.

Anne and Robin have made Annie's Place a real "Home from Home". It has everything you need for a relaxing break. This is my second visit, this time I brought my husband and our friends with me! Will come back and soak up the peace and quiet.

We had a wonderful holiday at Annie's Place. The apartment and welcome from Robin and Anne was perfect. Birsay is an amazing location and Annie's Place is situated in a wonderful spot. We will be back for sure.
