(Translated by Google) Inside the Lighthouse Visitor Center there is a small but very nice Lighthouse Caf with three tables and other exteriors. The owners Louise and Neil are wonderful people and Louise's cooking a show. We came to the Lighthouse Caf as I had booked a Cottage online to spend our wedding anniversary. We immediately realized that something was wrong, it had never happened to me to book an accommodation and to find it busy because the lady was still inside. Louise and Neil are not the owners of the Cottage but they did everything possible and impossible by dedicating about two hours of their time and by now closing the premises to find us a room and they succeeded and for this I thank you immensely, you were fabulous. They also manage the rental of bicycles which are located in a wooden house near the airport. We had a snack in the cafeteria with a good lemon cake and returned the next day for lunch, the mutton pie was a bomb of goodness. The dishes are carefully prepared at the moment, with local and fresh ingredients, all excellent. It is a must try, it is perhaps one of the best places to eat in Orkney. The Lighthouse Visitor Center consists of two rooms where the history and life of the island is told, the history of the lighthouse and a small shop with products from local artists. The Lighthouse was built by Alan Stevenson in 1852 with a height of 42 meters making it the tallest in the UK, located at the Point of Sinsoss. As there were no local stones to be used for the construction, everything had to be done by boat but being too expensive, red bricks were chosen. In 1889 its red bricks were painted two white bands to make it visible during the day. Its original lens is a Freshnel named after its inventor Augustin Freshnel. A flashing white light every 10 seconds. From here you can see the famous sheep on the beach. (Original) All'interno del Lighthouse Visitor Center si trova una piccolina ma molto graziosa Lighthouse Caf con tre tavolini ed altri esterni. I proprietari Louise e Neil sono persone stupende e la cucina di Louise uno spettacolo. Siamo giunti al Lighthouse Caf in quanto avevo prenotato online un Cottage per trascorrere il nostro anniversario di matrimonio. Abbiamo capito subito che qualcosa non quadrava non mi era ancora mai successo di prenotare una accomodation e di trovarla occupata perch la signora era ancora dentro. Louise e Neil non sono i proprietari del Cottage ma hanno fatto tutto il possibile ed impossibile dedicando circa due ore del loro tempo e a ormai chiusura del locale per trovarci una stanza e ci sono riusciti e per questo vi ringrazio immensamente, siete stati favolosi. Gestiscono anche il noleggio delle biciclette che sono collocate in una casetta in legno vicino all'aereoporto. Abbiamo fatto la merenda in caffetteria con una buona torta al limone e siamo ritornati il giorno successivo per pranzare, il tortino di montone stato una bomba di bont. I piatti sono preparati con cura al momento, con ingredienti locali e freschi, tutto ottimo. assolutamente da provare, forse uno dei posti migliori dove mangiare alle Orcadi. Il Lighthouse Visitor Center consiste in due stanze dove viene raccontata la storia e la vita dell'isola, la storia del faro ed un negozietto con prodotti di artisti locali. Il Lighthouse fu costruito da Alan Stevenson nel 1852 con un'altezza di 42 metri che lo rende il pi alto del Regno Unito, si trova al Point of Sinsoss. Non essendoci pietre locali da utilizzare per la costruzione tutto doveva avvenire tramite trasporti in barca ma essendo troppo caro si sono optati i mattoni rossi. Nel 1889 suoi mattoni rossi vennero dipinte due fasce bianche da renderlo visibile durante il giorno. Ha la sua lente originale una Freshnel che prende il nome dal suo inventore Augustin Freshnel. Una luce bianca lampeggiante ogni 10 secondi. Da qui si vedono le famose pecore in spiaggia.
