Bluestar Garage

About

Bluestar Garage in Orkney operates from N End Rd, Stromness KW16 3AG, on the main island of the group.

Stromness sits on the west coast, with Kirkwall, Finstown and St Margaret's Hope within reach by road, and Hoy, South Ronaldsay and Westray across the water by ferry. The garage has built a local following, reflected in a 4.3 out of 5 average from 20 reviews. Customers travelling from the smaller islands make the crossing to Stromness for the services available here.

The website at http://www.nwbrass.co.uk/ carries the garage's own information for anyone arranging a visit.

British islands are reached by car ferries, passenger ferries and, in some cases, scheduled flights, so planning around a sailing is part of any trip to Orkney. Summer brings long daylight hours and crowded ferries, while winter sailings are often cancelled by weather. Grey seals breed around British island coasts, and basking sharks appear in summer surface waters, which adds to what can be seen from the shore.
