We’re really sorry to announce that, due to the high winds forecasted for this weekend, we’ve made the tough decision to cancel our pop-up cinema event. The safety of our guests and team always comes first, and with the unpredictable weather, we felt it was the best choice.

We know many of you were looking forward to this as much as we were, and we’re just as disappointed. If you’ve already purchased tickets, we’ll be issuing refunds through PayPal this evening.

We’ll work hard to reschedule this event or plan something equally exciting for the future, so stay tuned for updates!

Thank you for your understanding and continued support. If you have any questions, feel free to drop us a message.

Thank you for your ongoing support

Sorry folks this isn’t rental related but I am delighted for Isla with her new project and would be so grateful if you would go show some support! We hope to use her coffee in the future for events we plan to hold! ☕️

Well done from The Orkney Rental Company Isla 😎

LOCHSIDE ROASTERS - it’s been a long time coming!

After a lot of dedication, time and hard work I am delighted to announce we are in the final stages of the shed renovation, or should I now say the roastery!🥳

This is going to be a huge learning curve for myself with lots of experimentation but I can’t wait for what’s going to come. Here’s to some great roasts and even better coffee☕️

We are delighted to welcome Isla to the team! 🥳

As well as Isla having to keep Baillie right at home she is now going to attempt to keep him right at work too! Not as easy task admittedly 😬😂

Isla is coming on to manage our social media and customer enquiries. We sometimes find ourselves struggling to keep up with all the behind the scenes tasks and this is an attempt to improve your customer experience from the beginning.

We are very grateful for Isla coming and taking on this role and with her great organisation skills we know she is going to be great. 💯👌

We have a new project being worked on behind the scenes here at Orkney Rental for this winter 🎉

Keep your eyes peeled over the coming month👀
