Next year my wife and I are planning a trip up to the Orkneys. We have frkiends up there who have invited to visit.
My question is has anybody travelled up to there if so what is the best way. We live in Bedfordshire.
I have already done a bit of research but are looking for any suggestions.
Options so far
Train all the way to Thurso Then Ferry from Scrabster
Fly up to Inverness then train. Again Ferry from Scrabster
Train to Glasgow then fly to Kirkwall
Is there much to do or see in Thurso/ Scrabster as we might have a layover there.
It seems there are a number of permutations.
