Treat yourself this morning and take time to watch this beautiful video of Orkney. The Orkney Anthem is such
a wonderful song and our son Steven is actually singing in this version along with the school choir 💕

It truly is a wonderful place to visit.

Wow!! What can we say?!? As we come to the end of our first summer season we have been utterly overwhelmed by the amount of bookings and the incredible feedback that we have received from everyone. As well as many fabulous visitors to the holiday let, we have had some exciting ones in the bay just infront of the house too. How fantastic is this photo of some Orcas swimming just outside Skeir a Lidda Holiday Let ❤️

We have both thoroughly enjoyed our first steps into the world of tourism and cannot wait for next years season to begin!! In the meantime we have an exciting offer coming up for the winter months...keep you eyes peeled for more information very soon.

Many thanks to everyone for their support and we look forward to welcoming visitors old and new very soon ❤️

Much love from
Erik, Lesley and Newton

Introducing your hosts.

Erik and I are both very proud Orcadians who are passionate about our islands and our heritage.

Erik is a retired primary teacher and exceptionally knowledgeable on all things Orcadian. He is a keen walker and loves the great outdoors. Erik is you man if you want any advice on where to go and what to do.

I am a primary teacher and share Erik's passion for the great outdoors. However, you are more likely to find me in the water. An avid sea swimmer I enjoy swimming in the sea infront of Skeir a Lidda and snorkelling at the Churchill Barriers.

We are so excited to be finally opening the doors of Skeir a Lidda to guests from all around the world.
