2018 Orkney tour - 18/11/2017 09:35
Hi everyone,
Last time we were all together, we spoke about the next tour being in Orkney and possibly September. Just wanted to let you know that accommodation for us and the cars is not easy to come by. The islands are extremely popular as you can imagine, and if the general consensus is to go ahead we need to book pretty soon . A general enquiry reveals that there is heavy booking for September 2018 already.
It would be great if we could all stay in the same location and Kim and I have looked at http://www.atlantislodges.com/. They have 8 doubles and 5 twins with a 10% discount for group in September at the moment. They do come recommended.
If we were to stay one night on Stronsay, it would be the Stronsay Hotel or the Storehouse B&B which also has self catering apartments attached. These are in easy walking distance of each other.
This is just to let everyone know and to get their opinions about accommodation. Obviously Simon and Jim will be in the driving seat leading the way in more ways than one as usual.
