"A very friendly welcome, they were happy to accommodate our very late (11.30pm) arrival after we travelled there on the ferry. The owners have recently taken it over and in the last few weeks completed an overhaul of the bar/restaurant area which looks lovely. We didn't try the evening meals but the breakfasts were phenomenal, a proper Scottish breakfast that really sets you up for the day. Very friendly hosts helped us to work out what to do during the day and suggested good walks and so...

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Stenness?
For most travelers, the best time to visit Stenness is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is mildest and daylight hours are longest.

During these months, you'll experience average temperatures ranging from 12°C to 16°C (54°F to 61°F), making it comfortable for exploring the outdoor archaeological sites like the Ring of Brodgar and the Stones of Stenness. The extended daylight, sometimes lasting until 10 PM, allows for more comprehensive sightseeing and photography without feeling rushed. This period is ideal for couples and families looking to maximize their time outdoors and enjoy the scenic Orkney landscape.

Should you prefer fewer crowds and are prepared for cooler, potentially windier weather, late spring (May) or early autumn (September) also offer a good experience. Temperatures average around 9°C to 13°C (48°F to 55°F) during these shoulder seasons. While daylight hours are shorter than in mid-summer, you'll still have ample time to visit the major sites, and the less busy conditions can provide a more intimate experience with these ancient monuments.
