Welcome to Stromness Apartments, Orkney....
Nestling behind Brinkies Brae you’ll find Stromness Apartments, three purpose built self catering apartments on the quiet croft of Milldam.
Each of the three apartments offers modern and comfortable accommodation in a peaceful rural setting. With unspoilt views over open farmland you can enjoy a relaxed stay in the heart of Stromness Parish, yet with the bustling harbour town of Stromness on your doorstep. Whether it’s the world renowned Orkney Folk Festival, the award winning Pier Arts Centre attracting internationally acclaimed pieces, or its many restaurants and bars offering the best in Orkney produce, Stromness always has something to charm it guests.
After a day of exploring all of what Orkney has to offer you can relax back in the comfort and privacy of your apartment, knowing that whatever you seek from Orkney’s rich tapestry of culture, flora and fauna – Stromness Apartments offers you an idyllic setting and perfect location to base your stay.
Hey I'm Alexander, I'm 26 years old and look forward to welcoming you Stromness Apartments,
The apartments are a result of a barn conversion on my Granny & Grandad's croft of Milldam, where my Mum was born and brought up.
You'll be welcome to walk around the old farm and enjoy the surrounding land and trees that my Grandad and Dad planted (they are not very common in Orkney we like to brag about them!).
I really hope you can come and enjoy everything Stromness Apartments has to offer.
Alexander :-)
