Excellent Location
This was a comfortable rental with everything we could want for our week's stay. We particularly liked the rural situation with a short distance into Stromness. It was an ideal location for exploring Orkney. One small negative detail--the furniture showed considerable staining due to heavy use. Other than this, everything was clean. The property is very suitable for families with young families and a dog.

Absolutely beautiful!
This beautiful house has everything you need for a relaxing stay. It’s a home from home and there is nothing that hasn’t been thought of. 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. Perfect for people who want to take their bikes as Stromness is close enough to bike down to. Overall, this house is absolutely amazing and we wouldn’t hesitate to stay again. Thank you for a wonderful, relaxing holiday, in a house that has everything you will ever need to make it so.

Review of Ben Alder
A very spacious and well equipped property just outside of Stromness with lovely views across to the harbour and hills. Very conveniently placed for visiting the main neolithic sites and for catching car ferry to Hoy from nearby Houton. We had a delightful time at the property - a wonderful base for our stay.

Excellent week in Ben Alder
We had a great week in this very comfortable bungalow. The views are great and it is very well equipped. It is easy walking distance to Stromness - just over a mile along a farm track and through the industrial estate to a path by the school playing field. Kerry and Tara could not have been more helpful. We would definitely recommend it.

Good location.
The property was clean, spacious and comfortable. The location is very convenient with lovely views. However there isn't a freezer, not even a section in the fridge, so we couldn't freeze the ice packs for the cool box. But apart from that the house is well equiped.

A Week in Stromness
overall the property was very good and location was excellent with wonderful views over Stromness and the harbour. Only problem was that there was no dishtowels to dry the plates and cups etc.

Our holiday at Ben Alder
Ben Alder is a modern house located on the outskirts of Stromness. We had 5 adults and 1 child. There are three bedrooms,a bathroom with bath and shower, a well equipped kitchen with a dining area, a utility room with a washing machine and drying facilities and a very comfortable lounge. The views from the cottage are stunning over Stromness to Graemsey and Hoy. We had cars so we were able to get into Stromness easily. Location makes travel on the mainland easy. We had a great holiday and Kerry was very helpful before we traveled and during our stay. Would recommend for a small group or family.

A lovely cottage
A very nice place from which to explore Orkney. If the owners could persuade their neighbours to move the rusting van and car from the field opposite the house it would go from a 5/5 to a 6/5!

Helpful property manager
We booked the property quite late after our previous booking (carried over from last year) was cancelled due to the owner forgetting to carry it over to this year and double booking for the dates we needed. It was a bit further out of Stromness than we had wanted but it didn’t spoil our time there. There was a bit of an issue with the wifi but it was sorted out. The best thing about the property has been the assistance we were given by Kerry when we were caught up in a Covid 19 cluster and couldn’t take the ferry back to the mainland. She found us alternative accommodation and was incredibly helpful. Thank you!

Week in Orkney
We spent a lovely week on Orkney. The property is slightly out of town at Hamnavoe. Public transport for us is essential and worked out fine. Stromness is interesting and there us plenty to see on Orkney. We had an unexpected internet issue which was sorted as quickly as was possible.

Home from home
Very comfortable, spacious & extremely well equipped. Just little too far out of Stromness to walk in at night as return is up steep hill with no lighting or pavement. Fridge freezer would be a good addition. Pity about the scrapped cars opposite! Otherwise the position is lovely. Highly recommended for a comfortable stay.

Ben Alder August 2020
A lovely property in a beautiful location on the outskirts of Stromness. While we were pleased overall with the property, a few things could have been better e.g. the quality of the towels, the cleanliness of the oven and the ovenware.

Good base to explore Orkney
The property is on a hillside with great views over Stromness and Hoy. We thought it was ideal for our stay, well equipped, warm and comfortable. If we ever returned to Orkney we’d be happy to stay there again.

Great family holiday home.
A lovely, spacious, clean and well furnished house. 3 bedrooms and the house has lots of seats and space so even if you fill every bed you won’t be cramped. Easy to find, in a quiet but not isolated location on the outskirts of town. Lovely views. Nice touches such as a welcome basket, children’s bath toys (which we didn’t need), and some nice artwork on the walls. Good communication from the hosts telling us everything we needed to know. Location makes it easy to access both sides of Mainland and get to various ferries to other Islands. I’d happily stay here again.
