Welcome to Muckle Green Holm, a well-equipped apartment set in an ideal position for exploring the town and its surrounding area. The property boasts an open-plan living space, including a well-equipped kitchen with modern amenities, making it convenient for longer stays. The living area is designed for relaxation, with a large Smart TV, DVD player, and Bluetooth speaker to keep you entertained. The apartment has one spacious double bedroom featuring a king-sized bed, ensuring a restful night’s sleep. The modern bathroom offers a spacious shower, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploring.
The apartment itself has a unique history, originally part of a building that housed a travelling grocery van business—first horse-drawn and later motorised. Lovingly restored in 2018 by the same local family business that built it five generations ago, it retains a strong connection to its historical roots while offering all the conveniences of modern living. Situated just minutes from Kirkwall’s main shopping streets and historic landmarks, the apartment’s central location provides easy access to all that the town has to offer.
Kirkwall, the capital of Orkney, is a small yet bustling town rich in history and culture. Its cobbled streets are lined with shops selling local crafts, jewellery, and Orkney produce, offering plenty to explore. Just a short walk from the apartment is the iconic St Magnus Cathedral, a stunning medieval structure dating back to 1137, renowned for its architecture and historical significance. The town also boasts a vibrant array of cafes, restaurants, and pubs, where you can sample traditional Orcadian cuisine or relax with a drink after a day of sightseeing.
For those wishing to explore the wider Orkney Islands, the nearby ferry terminal offers routes to the North Isles, where you can experience breathtaking landscapes and abundant wildlife. With transport links like the North Isles ferry terminal and bus station close by, the apartment is a perfect base for discovering both Kirkwall’s attractions and the natural beauty of the surrounding islands. Whether you’re here for the history, the scenery, or simply to relax, this central location makes everything easily accessible. These properties can be booked together to accommodate up to 10 guests.
