Ayre Hotel, on Ayre Road overlooking Kirkwall Bay in Kirkwall, has modern rooms with private baths from $35 to $50 a night. Rooms at the country -style Standing Stones Hotel in the village of Stenness are in the same price range; the inn takes its name from a group of monoliths nearby.

An earlier gin mill on this site was run by a smuggler and bootlegger. According to legend, the bootlegger stashed his liquor beneath the pulpit of the cathedral when the tax man came around.

Highland Park is one of the few distilleries in Scotland using peat fires to give its Scotch a distinctive smoky flavor. We followed a guide through the old stone structure, sniffing the dusky aroma of malting barley and peering into the silent blue-red flames of a peat furnace. Then we relaxed in a walnut-paneled tasting room with a dram of single-malt Scotch whisky. Orkney is a pleasing blend of its yesterdays. Its Viking ancestry is evident in the fair hair of friendly residents.

Place names are a musical mix of Scottish and Scandinavian: Loch of Stenness, Scapa Flow, Saviskaill Bay. Restaurants serve haggis sheep heart, liver and tongue mixed with suet, spices and oatmeal boiled in a sheep's stomach, lobster Hebridean (Norwegian-style lobster made with Drambuie) and nettle kail (chicken boiled with nettles). Several cafes offer Orkney seafood and other Scottish fare. An island favorite is Hamnavoe restaurant on Stromness' main street, with rich dark woods and candlelight typical of an Old World bistro. The menu ranges from traditional Scottish dishes to fresh seafood; entrees are about $12 to $15 (U.S.).

The Creel, in the tiny town of St. Margaret's Hope, specializes in seafood; prices are around $10.
