Papa Westray

I'll be in Papa Westray for around 3 hours in Sept. Is there anywhere within walking distance of the airport to get some lunch?

Cheers.

JNP, as is oft said on here, Google is your friend,

About Papa Westray

No restaurant or pub. However, there is a full board guest house which might be willing to do a pre booked meal?

Sounds as if you're doing the shortest flight thingy - don't expect an in-flight meal!

#2 is long way round PWY to WRY due to easterly wind.

I'd recommend Jim & Morag at School Place (see the google link).
If they don't do a lunch (they need some time to themselves!), then bring a pack lunch and walk around- very interesting place.

Here are some pics of Westray, the other end of the worlds shortest commercial route from Papay

Westray Fire and Rescue

Terminal main entrance

and finally the Main Runway the most boring photograph in in the world. In fact there was some dust on the camera sensor that did add interest to the shot, but I cloned it out.

Take a packed lunch, and be prepared for a stay longer than 3 hours.
