Bryameadow Farm. Holiday Caravan for hire in Orkney

Welcome to Bryameadow!
Enjoy a holiday in Orkney, staying in our well equipped caravan, and
discover our islands. At Bryameadow, you are assured of a warm welcome by a
traditional Orcadian family, the majority of whose guests return year after year.
Orkney is a group of about 70 islands situated off the north east coast of Scotland,
separated from the Scottish mainland by the Pentland Firth, where the waters of
the North Sea and the Atlantic Ocean meet. Around 17 of these mainly low lying,
fertile islands are inhabited. Hoy, (literally translated as "High Island") is the
exception, and is more akin to the Scottish Highlands in character.
Wildlife abounds, and spectacular cliff scenery is never far away. Orkney also has
more archaeological remains per square mile than any other location in Europe.
There are ample opportunities for Bird Watching, Trout Fishing, Sea Angling,
Divers, Walkers, Photographers, Golfers, Sight Seeing, Wildlife Enthusiasts, Water
Sports, Dining Out, Historians, Cycling, Island Hopping, etc., etc.
Bryameadow is in the west of the main island; it lies on the border between the
parishes of Sandwick and Birsay, and is 3 miles from the village of Dounby.
At our northerly location it never gets properly dark in the summer months, in fact
you can read the newspaper or play golf at midnight (weather permitting!)! The long summer evenings are
ideal for fishing, or squeezing in that extra bit of sightseeing. Then, around the
Winter Solstice, it may appear to never get properly light! However, the Northern
Lights, locally known as the "Merry Dancers" (Aurora Borealis) are a frequent
visitor in the winter.
