Wheems Organic Farm Bothy and Campsite

Lovely little site. Still had a authentic old school campsite vibe. Honestly pots for washing machine etc instead of some app! Great views from our tent pitch, a reasonable price. A better drying room would have been good, and bigger toilets stalls with locks would have been good, but just little stuff really. The owners were very nice genuine people.

We arrived on Orkney after a disastrous start to our latest campervan journey due issues with the weather and ferries suffering with technical issues. We also arrived on the last ferry of the day in the dark and rain. Part of our weekend we knew would be controlled in part by the arrival of storm Dave. That did prove interesting but what a location to sit it out. Wheems Organic farm/ Wild Orcadium is one of those places you have etched as a memory that will not be mixed or confused with other camping sites. Unique, cosy and cute. With the coos, geese and birdlife lots to see and photograph. We loved it and would highly recommend a visit.

We’ve just had a lovely stay in the self-catering cottage at Wheems. It’s situated on the edge of the campsite with its own sheltered patio garden and parking. Whilst we didn’t use the shared facilities, we did get a tour from the owner and they looked great, especially the communal kitchen and sitting area for campers. Wheems is well situated, close to the ferry and a half hour’s drive to the capital town of Kirkwall. It has great views of the coastline and is just a short walk to the beach. We used bikes to get around and the roads were quiet, allowing us to enjoy the surrounding countryside. Thank you to Rob and Vicky for your hospitality and good luck with the ongoing project, we are looking forward to returning next year!

Great little campsite. Small and with enough indoor space to accommodate almost every one if the weather turns. Can get windy.
