Orkney is the perfect escape, somewhere with a strong community spirit where you will be welcomed and can truly relax and switch off from the stresses of daily life.
There is so much to see and to explore across Orkney's Islands from the heart of Neolithic Orkney's UNESCO World Heritage Site featuring the world famous Skara Brae, Maeshowe , Ring of Brodgar and Standing Stones of Stenness to the miles of beautiful unspoilt beaches and coastlines to enjoy.
We have many annual festivals taking place in Orkney, these include the St Magnus Festival, Orkney International Science Festival , Orkney Folk Festival and the slightly newer addition of an Orkney Gin Festival!
The landscapes of Orkney seem to inspire creativity and as a result we are lucky enough to have a large number of jewellery designers, craftspeople and artists here in Orkney.
Jewellers including Sheila Fleet , Aurora Jewellery, Ortak, Alison Moore, Rachel Blair, to name a few, design and make their jewellery here in Orkney and it's sometimes possible to visit their workshops to see the pieces being made. An item of Orkney jewellery makes the perfect gift or momento of your time here, the hardest bit will be deciding which piece to go for!
There are numerous galleries around Orkney, the most famous being the Pier Arts Centre in Stromness, but there are many smaller galleries dotted all over the Mainland as well as in the Isles, from the Hoxa Tapestry Gallery in South Ronaldsay to the Wheeling Steen Gallery gallery in Westray.
People in Orkney are passionate about the local produce and we have a fantastic selection of local food and drink available to enjoy from delicious fresh seafood, cheese, chocolate and biscuits through to whisky, gin, rum, vodka and beer. For more information visit Orkney food & drink website
