Boasting a private beach area and views of sea, Waterfront House is a guest house set in a historic building in Finstown, 5.7 km from Maeshowe. This beachfront property offers access to free WiFi and free private parking. The guest house has a fitness room and luggage storage space.

The location, the room, the shower, the bath tub (with TV!)... there is nothing to complain about. I don't know, what else you could wish for. Though no breakfast is included, plenty of options are provided for you so you can make up a little breakfast for yourself.

At the guest house, units come with a wardrobe, a flat-screen TV, a private bathroom, bed linen and towels. The guest house features some units with quiet street views, and every unit is fitted with a kettle.

I liked so much about my stay here. The location is walkable from the transit station and the town center, but if you have bags, it's a reasonable taxi ride. The room was extremely comfortable, and came complete with kettle, tea, coffee and assortment of biscuits; the bath had a local soaps (which were delightful). The breakfast was a great way to start out the day, delicious and filling, and with a lot of options. I recommend the salmon omelet.
