Orkney

Churchill Barriers

The weather gods of Orkney were certainly looking favourably on us during our recent visit for we had five days of unbroken sunshine.  Yes, it was cold but the ever changing backdrop of sea and sky more than made up for that.  It’s the restless sea, constantly shifting  that infuses the island with a shimmering light that seems to be rare outside of coastal regions. The endless landscape appeared luminescent at times, radiating an unnatural glow that made it possible to believe in the mystical properties of the Islands. Our stay certainly felt magical, a much welcomed opportunity to relax
