Maybe one of the inter island ferry harbours? Not been to any though so over to the transport man!

I am sure it's not one of them unless on one of the small islands.  I think Mantis got lost down a dead end road and took a photo 🤣

Now that I would have known straight away.  Went to the distillery when I was last in Orkney, three years ago.  A very basic shop, but we were still able to spend money :lol:

The photo was in 1999 when we stayed a week at Harbour House as a house swap when the kids were wee. The distillery was shut then. Went back in 2018 and it was very basic as you say. One of the poorest tours I've been on. Also no photography 🤷‍♂️

The first of our two visits to Orkney was in 2002.  We went round the Highland Park distillery, and they told us then that some of their staff fired up the Scapa distillery for a few weeks each year, just to keep it in working condition.

Didn't go round the Scapa distillery three years ago - just wanted to see if they had anything unusual in the shop, for a present for a friend.

OK then. Mainland Orkney. Harbour House, Scapa. This is the opposite view.

That is one part of Orkney I have not been to.  Good photo of the distillery.
