Berstane House ReviewThis isolated manse was once the home of Dr. John Rae, the famous explorer and unsung Orkney hero. Set on 3.2 hectares (8 acres) of woodland, it lies just outside Kirkwall on Mainland Orkney. Its spacious, well-furnished bedrooms open onto views of Berstance Bay, Inganess Bay, and Shapinsay Sound. No place even in Kirkwall captures the authentic Orkney experience as much as this family-run B&B where the hospitality is the best in the area. If you don't mind a slight commute, we'd recommend staying here instead of in Kirkwall. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
