Colin & Maureen
A cosy Shepherd's Hut with combined kitchen/living/bedroom. Separate bathroom with shower. Lovely views over the fields and hills
We have lived in Finstown nearly all our lives. Colin is a Joiner and built this accommodation himself. As a guest at Morvin you will also receive a 10% discount on Colin's crafts including Orkney Chairs.
Finstown is a thriving village and central to many of the Neolithic sites and half way between Kirkwall and Stromness. There is also a local shop, and takeaway opportunities.
