"We were very pleasantly surprised to learn our 1 room family suite had 2 separate bedrooms. Beds were very comfortable and the bathroom was nice. Only issues were that we only had 1 key which made it tricky every time we went separate places. Also there was an illuminated exit sign in the king bedroom we had to cover up it was so bright, and when others shut their doors it would thump ours. Loved the skylights, was a bit stuffy but those helped. Loved the breakfast!"

"A very friendly welcome, they were happy to accommodate our very late (11.30pm) arrival after we travelled there on the ferry. The owners have recently taken it over and in the last few weeks completed an overhaul of the bar/restaurant area which looks lovely. We didn't try the evening meals but the breakfasts were phenomenal, a proper Scottish breakfast that really sets you up for the day. Very friendly hosts helped us to work out what to do during the day and suggested good walks and so...

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best area to stay in Flotta Isle?

The best area to stay in Flotta Isle is typically near the ferry terminal at Flotta Pier, as this offers the most convenient access and a central base for exploring.

This area, though small, is the primary point of entry and departure for the isle. It's where you'll find the island's shop and post office, which are often the main points of contact for visitors. The roads here are quiet, and the landscape is open, offering views towards the other Orkney islands.

For couples seeking a peaceful retreat, staying near Flotta Pier provides easy access to the island's walking paths and coastline. You can enjoy strolls along the shore, observe local wildlife, and experience the quiet pace of island life, all within easy reach of the ferry for day trips to neighbouring islands.

Solo travellers will also find this location ideal for its convenience and the sense of community. Being close to the main amenities means you're never too far from assistance if needed, and it's a good spot to meet locals or other visitors.

When is the best time to go to Flotta Isle?

The best time to visit Flotta Isle is during the summer months, particularly from June to August, when the weather is at its mildest and the days are long.

During this period, you'll experience the most comfortable temperatures, typically ranging from 12°C to 18°C, making it ideal for exploring the island's outdoors. The extended daylight hours, with the sun setting very late, provide ample opportunity for hiking, wildlife spotting, and enjoying the coastal scenery. This is also when the local ferry services operate on their most frequent schedules, offering greater convenience for travel to and from the island.

For those who enjoy birdwatching, late spring and early summer (May to July) are particularly rewarding. Many migratory species return to nest on the cliffs and moorlands, offering spectacular viewing opportunities. The island's flora is also in full bloom during these months, adding to the scenic beauty.

If you prefer a quieter experience and don't mind cooler temperatures, the shoulder seasons of May or September can also be pleasant. While the weather can be more unpredictable, you'll find fewer visitors and still have good chances for clear days to explore.
