Taftnica, Burray, KW17 2SY – OR00507F

Tucked away on the peaceful outskirts of Burray village, this charming yet surprisingly spacious cottage offers a truly atmospheric Orkney escape, with stunning panoramic sea views and a wonderfully secluded feel.

From the moment you arrive, the cottage feels calm and private, set among the quiet remains of old farmsteads while remaining well placed for exploring the southern isles. Located just above the fourth Churchill Barrier beach, the gentle sound of the ocean can often be heard in the background, adding to the sense of escape.

Inside, the cottage balances traditional charm with comfort and practicality. A well-equipped kitchen with dining table provides a welcoming space for shared meals, while the cosy lounge is perfect for relaxing at the end of the day—whether with a book, a film, or simply enjoying the quiet after coastal walks and island adventures.

The accommodation includes two comfortable double bedrooms and a single bedroom, making the cottage well suited to couples, families, or small groups. A large utility room offers generous practical space, complemented by an additional shower room for added convenience—particularly welcome after beach days or longer outdoor outings.

Peaceful, characterful, and deeply connected to its surroundings, this coastal cottage offers a relaxed and authentic Orkney stay. Whether you’re exploring nearby beaches, spending days uncovering Orkney’s rich heritage, or unwinding indoors after a day out, it’s a place to slow down, settle in, and feel at home.
