    This is NOT an overnight parking area. Signage stating it is not an overnight parking area is regularly removed. There is a campsite less than half a mile away

    Nach wie vor gut, alles noch wie beschrieben, es war sehr windig heute. Guter Handy Empfang

    Visited here between Christmas and new year. Amazing views and not a soul to be seen. Full 4G on o2. Perfect for rolling off the late ferry with amazing views to wake up to.

    Golf ball from course next to parking hit my van and broke window. Avoid place if you don’t want damage..

    Parcheggio molto bello, per arrivarci bisogna attraversare la strada che passa nel campo dal golf, bella vista.

    A moins de 10 minutes du ferry, excellent en arrivant ou en repartant des Orcades. Très calme, surtout des promeneurs de chiens et des joggeurs.

    Prachtige plek! Mooi wandelpad en mooi stukje strand. Wij zagen vanaf deze plek onze eerste orka’s. Picknicktafel en vuilnisbak aanwezig. Wij hadden een hele rustige plek en ik verwacht dat deze plek gedoogd blijft worden mits er niet veel te veel campers tegelijk staan en de parkeerplaatsen innemen van anderen.

    Ideal to come straight of the late ferry and go straight here. No facilities but flat and great views of Hoy. You have to drive thru the golf club - if this spot is full drive further to the end of the road and there is more space at the end, not quite as flat. Lovely coastal walk and you can walk into town if you want to stay parked.

    Straight from the ferry to this place as it was late, very quiet, wind okay, used the gun bunker as a wind shield in case it picked up. Stunning view to wake up to. Bin, (please use it, a couple of tea bags laying around) no other facilities.

    Google sent me out here the wrong way. Seems I may have been on a walking path. Not sure but I made it through. Can fit a few vans here. Nice flat space with a view.

    Nice spot in nice weather but very exposed to westerly gales. Very quiet next to golf course but lots of walkers late into the evening as locals drive through nearby council campsite and park before walking. Best to note If you drive through the campsite you are in the wrong place and will most likely get moved on when the warden arrives at 8pm or so.

    Why pay money in the campsite 300 yards round the corner when you can have a better view for free? Easy room for 5 vans, only 1 other here at 8.30pm when we arrived. Midge free, on a windy headland!!! Yessssss!

    Make sure you don't park in front of Point of Ness Campsite as the warden or police will move you on

    Take the path to the left of the golf club and then a right round a stone building. I thought I’d gone too far and only found it cos I couldn’t reverse. But a nice place.

    Nice spot just outside of town with some phone signal. flat spots, space enough for a few vans. Quite busy with walkers and golfers but it's really a lovely spot

    Einfacher flacher Platz, mit Bank und Mülleimer, sehr ruhig, direkt am Wasser mit zwei Leuchttürmen.
