Balfour Castle on the Orkney Island of Shapinsay is dramatically placed between the Atlantic Ocean and the North Sea.

The hotel offers oak panelled rooms, log fires and comfortable bedrooms containing beautiful Victorian furniture and antiques.

A perfect central location for touring the fascinating Orkney Archipelago. Their private grounds offer a safe and peaceful haven in which to savour woodland walks, birdsong, wild flowers and the beauty of our Victorian walled gardens. Fresh fruit and vegetables are picked daily and served with local game, meats and delicious seafood.

A place of beauty, the St Magnus Bay Hotel captures the character of the Hillswick shoreline.

This wooden building, originally manufactured in Norway over 100 years ago is thought to be the only one of its type in Britain. Sample our much spoken about hospitality and service, take in the local atmosphere and view the sheer beauty of the area.

Without a doubt the drongs are one of the most beautiful sights in the world. These statuesque granite rocks have long become synonymous with the name of Hillswick. Picturesque from any view they stand at around 100ft high, giving forth an authoritative standpoint over the seas.
