Positioned perfectly for exploring all that Orkney has to offer, Stromness Apartments provides an ideal base for your island adventure. Just a gentle 15-minute stroll or quick 5-minute drive from historic Stromness with its charming cobbled streets and local amenities, you’ll enjoy the best of both worlds.
What truly sets our location apart is the unparalleled access to Orkney’s archaeological wonders. Within just minutes by car, you can immerse yourself in one of the richest archaeological landscapes in the world—the Heart of Neolithic Orkney World Heritage Site. Marvel at the spectacular Ring of Brodgar, explore Maeshowe (the finest Neolithic tomb in Northern Europe), or wander through the remarkably preserved prehistoric houses of Skara Brae. For enthusiasts, the live archaeological dig at The Ness of Brodgar offers a fascinating glimpse into ongoing discoveries.
Our strategic position also makes island-hopping effortless, with convenient access to ferry connections for Hoy and other Orkney islands. Whether you’re keen to explore mainland attractions or venture further afield, everything is within easy reach. As our guest Graeme noted, “Alexander’s place is ideally situated for all the attractions mainland Orkney offers as well as ferries to Hoy and other islands.”
