Description
Idyllic plot of land on beautiful Shapinsay Island, Orkney.
This 201.48sqm plot boasts sea views and would be ideal for camping, caravanning or even building a small dwelling (subject to the appropriate permissions)
Orkney is a massive pull for tourism worldwide. People flock here to see first hand the exceptional scenery and wildlife including (but not limited to) Golden Eagles, Sealions, Dolphins, Orca and Whales. Also, diving and world famous fishing on one of the un spoilt lochs.
Shapinsay has a quiet and welcoming local community but a short ferry trip brings you to the main island of Orkney and the large town on Kirkwall where you can enjoy a huge variety of shops, hotels and restaurants to cater for every taste. Orkney also has some of the most ancient neolithic sites in the world with thousands visiting the world famous sites at Skara Brae, Brodgar and Maeshowe every year.
Tent pricing fees on Orkney are around £30 per night and for motorhomes around £70 so this plot could easily be turned into a money making venture for the astute investor!
Whether buying this plot to develop, rent out or simply to camp on, owning a piece of this staggeringly beautiful island can't be a bad decision!
