South Isles, Orkney Property
The ‘South Isles’ combine Graemsay, Hoy and Flotta. There are great contrasts between Hoy’s high hills and mighty cliffs and the gentler landscapes of Flotta and Graemsay.
The naval bases at Lyness and Flotta played a significant role in both world wars and there is an excellent museum of war history at Lyness. There are regular ro-ro ferry links to Orkney mainland and amenities include shops, hotels, G.P surgery and a community school at North Walls with swimming pool.
