Aug 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Withi-Gill was a beautiful cottage in a remarkable landscape -- views of Hoy and Graemsay were beautiful (when the weather cooperated, which was most days), and with a short walk, views of much of the western part of Mainland Orkney, including Stromness. The facilities were great, and the cottage was well-equipped for our needs. There's access to a small beach across the road and down a short track along the former millrun. Access to the rest of the mainland by car was easy and especially convenient for Stromness, Stenness, and the "heart of neolithic Orkney" sites (Brodgar, Stenness, even Skara Brae wasn't that far away). The only downside is that the cottage faces a main road down (see photo) which the locals drive very fast all day and night, which can be noisy at times. Finally, Simon was an excellent host, even though we never met in person! All in all, a great stay for us. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/40321c5a-2dc1-4554-8af0-1be78ce1815e-1754642744413.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Scott T.
