Holiday Rental House

The Drill Hall Cottage is a hundred year old stone built cottage, and was formerly the residence of the local Territorial Army commander in Evie. The cottage has been completely renovated, retaining original features such as fireplaces, cornice, wood panelling, and high ceilings. It is situated in the beautiful Evie countryside and is surrounded by lush farmland. Drill Hall Cottage has a lovely view of Eynhallow sound, and is just a short walk from Aikerness beach. In the summer, you can hear Red Throated Divers calling as they pass overhead between the sea and the hill loch where they nest. Enclosed south-facing garden with lawn and sun area. The house also boasts a library of historical and contemporary Orkney books, including novels, poetry, folklore, saga and history....More
