    “Amazing little cottage that is just the thing for experiencing what we imagine living in isolation in beautiful Scotland is like. Without all the work and isolation. Cosy place overlooking the ocean, with everything we needed, and our own chickens!”

Ashley & Julia
A cosy self catering cottage for two in a private cliff top location on Eday. Located on Eday, heart of Orkney's north isles, this renovated croft is on Green Farm with a private sandy beach and copious open space. The Ruah is available all year and is ideal for walking, bird watching, cloud spotting, star gazing, rock pooling, daydreaming - or maybe just relaxing. There’s a walled yard to the front of the cottage with a picnic bench and uninterrupted views of the sea and neighbouring islands.
We look forward to greeting you to the isle of Eday!
Uninterrupted sea views over neighboring isles. The Ruah is at the end of a farm track and has no inhabited neighboring properties, so you have absolute tranquility and privacy whilst staying, other than a flock of nosy chickens.
