History

Just outside the gallery is the quiet beach featured in the Orkneyinga Saga which tells the tale of Vikings coming ashore here to attempt to convert pagan islanders to christianity. Visitors can sit on the Viking seat and see a panoramic view of other islands, towards Scapa Flow & the Pentland Firth. A circular walk takes in Cantick Head & Lighthouse and the southern shore of Hoy with spectacular views to the Scottish mainland.

Pets welcome

We have our own animals on the premises.  
Small, well-behaved pets on leads are welcome in the studio area by prior arrangement, but the space isn’t suitable for larger or louder dogs. Dogs can be tied at the gate outside in full view of the gallery and the nearby beach and coastal trail are perfect for a walk. Owners are welcome to top up their water bottles and dog bowls from the outside drinking water tap.
