17/04/2017 – OK the bad news first, on the megalithic side there is little to see. The good news is that there is now a pop up cafe at the top. Along with stones, coffee and cake plays a very important part in my life so this cafe came as a most welcome surprise. It must have one of the best views of any cafe I’ve been to. Having a coffee and sitting by the window looking out over Sumburgh to Jarlshof and Ness of Burgi far below – a fine place to while away some time.
One minor bit of bad luck, this is the second time I’ve been to Sumburgh Head and the second time I didn’t see any puffins in one of the best places for them! I don’t think they like me.
