Really enjoyed our stay here. Found a couple of bugs in the bedroom (looked like pill bugs we have in the states). Not threatening. Beds were comfortable but were more the size of queen beds instead of King as advertised. Still, none of this would keep me from staying there again.

The room was a good size, good bathroom facilities, lovely breakfast room and everything was clean and fresh.
The breakfast had a good choice and was always produced promptly and the staff were attentive without being intrusive. Expecially enjoyed the haggis for breakfast.
Will certainly return.

Karrawa Guest House was perfect for our 3 night stay in Orkney! Breakfast was excellent. Fiona was so helpful and accommodating. Highly recommend.

A great wee guest house in Kirkwall close to local restaurants and tourist spots. Fyona and Colin are great hosts who are friendly and happy to chat and tell you about these amazing islands, the beds are comfy and it's a very quiet area. We are already talking about going back up and will rebook back at Karrawa if it's available

Fiona (and Colin) were brilliant, thoughtful hosts. The breakfasts are fresh and cooked to order, along with a wide selection of cereals and juices. Our room was spotless and roomy, with a big closet for hanging up rain-dampened clothes. It’s a 20-minute walk to the centre of Kirkwall, or a 6£ cab ride if you’re coming back from the pubs. Lovely, quiet, and very good value, with ample parking on the property.
