Orkney is renowned for its ancient history and stunning natural beauty.

The Ring of Brodgar, a striking stone circle, also provides a window into Orkney’s distant past. A short drive from St Mary’s brings you to the Churchill Barriers, a series of causeways constructed during World War II to protect Scapa Flow, a natural harbor with significant historical importance. The nearby Italian Chapel, a beautiful structure built by prisoners of war, is another must-see for those interested in the island’s wartime history.
19 Breckan Brae is perfectly located for those looking to enjoy both Orkney’s cultural landmarks and its tranquil seaside setting.
