What We're Reading
On our first night in Orkney, we will stay in Stromness, the main port, described as one of Britain's most picturesque towns. Our accommodation, Miller's House is the oldest dateable house in Stromness.  It also won a prize for best breakfast at the annual Orkney food fest.
When we first started planning the trip, we decided that we wanted to stay in a castle.   Balfour Castle is the one we will be staying in.
