Fantastic centre established and run by an enthusiastic group of volunteer staff. Recently had a complete makeover to create an amazing display. One of Orkney's top attractions.

Well worth a visit for the fascinating fossils and local history exhibits. The story behind the box bed at The Refuge is very poignant. You could spend hours pouring over the old "Concise" Family Encyclopedia alone! Lovely food and homebaking in the Cafe too which you can visit without the entry fee if you just want a pitstop.

Amazing, not to miss when you're in orkney.At least stay for 2 -3 days to enjoy all the sceneries in orkney.So peaceful, you wouldn't want to go back to the noisy city life. Don't forget your comfy shoes, weather this month is nice, not cold, walking around is nice and sunset is at nearly midnight so you'll enjoy your day.
