Hestwall
Scotland
Scotland
Hestwall occupies a central spot on Orkney's Mainland, making it an ideal base for island exploration. The A965 provides the main connection from Kirkwall Airport, whilst ferry passengers from Stromness follow the same route eastbound before turning onto local roads. With about a dozen fast EV charging points locally, electric touring is perfectly feasible. The surrounding settlements of Tenston, Croval, and Voy lie within easy reach, whilst dramatic Yesnaby's clifftops beckon just 4km away. The city sits remarkably close to Neolithic settlements that are older than Stonehenge itself.
