- "Perfect!" - "Cozy, comfortable and clean hotel, very handy for Ferry and Stromness. Bar downstairs and excellent breakfast. " - "We had a wonderful 2 night stay in February with lots of snow which was a bonus. Our room was immaculate, a real comfy bed, plenty of tea, coffee and biscuits. The bathroom was brand new with a super powerful shower. The staff were so accommodating and really happy to help with anything we needed, a great shout out for Angela, Moira and the chef. The breakfast had a great choice of hot or cold food. The porridge was to die for and runny poached eggs. The hotel is central fir everything, right across from the ferry terminal too. We will definitely be back. Thank you again for looking after us 👍"

The food at the restaurant was sensational" - "This was the best place we stayed while on vacation. The room was immaculate, the spa tub a terrific surprise, and the breakfast a first rate delight!

The house even has toys, which we didn’t use because our children are much older, but even so, they are there if needed. There is a dishwasher, a washing machine, a freezer, wonderful drying facilities and even an iron and a hairdryer! The beds were oh so comfy and everything was perfect. We had dealings with both Kerry and Tara, who were absolutely delightful and couldn’t do enough to help us - thank you, Kerry and Tara. We were able to use the garage to store our bikes as well. The views from the house are amazing and the location of the house is perfect too - just out of Stromness but you can still see the whole of it.

- "Clean, quiet, cosy, superb." - "10/10." - "We had a great time. Everything was there, the location was good and we had really good and sweet help with our luggage that didn't arrive." - "We really enjoyed this little home away from home. The apartment was very clean and well equipped but what we liked most was the beautiful setting with lovely views and friendly horses in the nearby field" - "Good directions. Clean and quiet with a lovely view. Had trouble with 2 of the 3 toilets. Fortunately my husband is quite handy and fixed one of the toilets so we had 2 which was quite adequate. Stairs extremely steep. Really needs a washer/dryer not just a washer with a drying rack that only fits socks and underwear. Also would need a larger refrigerator if you were cooking meals. We went out for dinner. The owners father David was extremely helpful. We thought we had lost key and tried different ways to get in touch with owner. Never were able to get in touch with him. Fortunately the keys were at one of the places we visited. Otherwise I am not sure what we would have done. Really liked place but felt owner needed to be more responsive. All the other places we stayed had info from owner with recommendations for restaurants, grocery shopping etc etc. This place had a nice binder with nothing in it. A good place that I am sure will be improved over time."

The welcome hamper was a lovely touch!" - "Great stay fab house great location" - "We thoroughly recommend Hamn-vagr as a place to stay. Stromness is a delightful town, if a little short on evening restaurants, but availability of good food from local shops makes self-catering very easy. Kate was a delightful host, giving us all the information we needed. Worth using her contact details available in the property, as the Vrbo site's local connectivity was not good. We would certainly consider a return visit in the future."
