All of the Anderson's Harbour Cottages are decorated in a nautical theme with contemporary decor and equipped with all modern amenities. They are graded 4 Star by Visit Scotland and each of them have holiday libraries and complimentary WIFI too.

Their settings right on the sea, are difficult to match and are simply good for the soul! One simply feels better about life just being there.

Enjoying one’s cuppa in the morning on the pier – while one watches the fishing boats going out for the day – is quite special. In the Autumn and Winter months, the sunrises are something to behold in the mornings, as a backdrop to the fishing boats going out for a day’s hard work. Sealife, birdlife, seals and views over Scapa Flow are treats to be enjoyed every day.

Difficult to beat – enjoying a glass of one’s favourite “something” in the evenings – while sitting on the pier, just “being” and feeling at one with the sea and sea life.

The cottages are set in a quiet part of Stromness, yet within walking distance to many points of interest including the golf course, the Stromness museum, pubs, cafes, bakery, deli, take away, shops, chemist and Pier Arts Centre.

If you just want to get away from the harshness and bustle of life – Anderson’s Harbour Cottages leaves one feeling invigorated and make one feel good about life again. And they are quite romantic too!
