Location
With Orkney as a backdrop it is only fitting that as part of our ongoing tree planting project we will be helping to off-set the carbon emitted both getting to and staying here at Brecks. We will be doing this by planting a quantity of trees each year representative to the amount of visitors having stayed in our accommodation. Also we will be aiming to achieve a bronze category in Green Tourism.
We are situated 5 minutes drive from the picturesque village of St Margaret's Hope which has 3 grocery shops, a Post Office, a pub and restaurant. Pentland Ferries is also located in St Margaret's Hope taking you to and from the Mainland in around 1 hour.
While staying at Brecks you can go for a walk through the farmland and you will no doubt see some of the many birds and wildlife that Brecks is a haven for. In 2010 we planted around 6000 trees on our farmland, and there are often birds singing around them. Pheasants wandering around with their young are a common sight. We have beef cattle and sheep on the farm-which you may also spot nearby.
You will be assured of a warm welcome at Brecks and being from Orkney and having lived here most of our lives we are more than able to supply you with plenty of local knowledge on Orkney.
