About us

Your Home Away from Home


Welcome to our self-catering accommodation, sleeping up to six guests. This charming family farmhouse was built over 150 years ago and has been lovingly restored over the past eight years finally being completed in 2025. It blends historic island character with fresh, modern comfort.

Ideally located near the town centre, you’re just moments from public transport, pubs, restaurants, the sports centre and the ferry terminal. With off-road parking and the warmth of a local, family run stay, it’s the perfect base to experience island life your way

We’d love to welcome you to our Auld Hoose and allow you to experience the slow pace of island life in Orkney.

The image shows the front door and window of a house with a textured beige exterior wall. The door is dark blue with a window, a letterbox, and a silver door handle. There is a small sign next to the door that reads 'OLD HOUSE.' A doormat with floral patterns is placed in front of the door. The window to the left has a large ceramic jug inside.
