_______________

From the Orkney Isles, around the remote and rugged east coast, be inspired by the sights and sounds of Scotland`s far north. Uncover the myriad secrets of ancient history hidden for millennia beneath the sands of time whilst indulging yourself with the best of cuisine and the traditional warmth of Scottish hospitality.

Set in a wild and untamed landscape at the most northerly point of the British mainland, Dunnet Bay Distillery uses carefully harvested local botanicals in the production of their handcrafted spirits. Enjoy a tasting and learn the story of their distillation process. The Scapa Flow Museum tells the story of Orkney`s military involvement during both world wars and houses a major collection of wartime artefacts, whilst Skara Brae is the best-preserved Neolithic settlement in western Europe; it was uncovered by a wild storm in 1850. Around 5,000 years ago, the prehistoric people of Orkney began building monuments out of stone and many still survive today. Explore the stone circles and chambered tombs at the Heart of Neolithic Orkney. From South Ronaldsay, visit the Churchill Barriers, built by Italian prisoners of war, and the delightful Italian Chapel, their enduring memorial. The history of Wick`s herring fishing industry is revealed at the town`s Heritage Museum and, situated between the River Spey and the Moray Coast, discover the hidden gem of Gordon Castle Estate. The eight-acre walled garden is one of Scotland`s best kept secrets. Cawdor Castle, the romantic Highland 14th century home of the Thanes of Cawdor, plays host to your final visit. Its ancient medieval tower was constructed around a legendary holly tree.
