Travel Guide

Derelict crofthouse The stark reality of bygone rural life in Orkney is all too evident here. No romantic, rose-tinted rural idyll. The most basic accommodation, peat fire, tiny windows down one side and a low roof. That's some lintel over the fireplace though.

Wass Wick and Salta Taing Good Norse names. Salta Taing is the prominent tongue sticking out into the sea. The ferry from Rousay to Tingwall can just be spotted.

Derelict building near Cottascarth It would be interesting to know what this was. It's only small, maybe ten or twelve feet across.

The Albert was an excellent place to stay for 3 days while we went around Okkney Islands. Our room was huge and a view of the ocean! The only possible drawback was parking can be a challenge! But doable.
