🛞 Mobile Tyre Fitter in Stenness, Orkney

About Mobile Tyre Fitters

A mobile tyre fitter comes to your home, workplace or roadside to replace, repair or balance your tyres - saving you the trip to a garage and the wait.

Services typically cover puncture repairs, full tyre replacements, seasonal changeovers and emergency callouts when you're stuck with a flat.

In rural Scotland, where the nearest tyre garage can be a long drive away, a mobile fitter is worth knowing about - especially in winter when road conditions make the journey harder.

About Stenness

Stenness is a small settlement on the Mainland of Orkney, situated on the narrow strip of land between the Loch of Stenness and the Loch of Harray.

The village gives its name to the Stones of Stenness, a Neolithic stone circle dating to around 3100 BC - one of the earliest stone circles in the British Isles and part of the Heart of Neolithic Orkney UNESCO World Heritage Site.

The nearby Ring of Brodgar and the Ness of Brodgar archaeological site are within walking distance, making this area one of the most concentrated landscapes of prehistoric monuments anywhere in Europe.

Stenness is a quiet, rural community, but its extraordinary archaeological surroundings draw visitors from around the world throughout the year.

About Orkney

(opens in new tab)

Orkney is an archipelago of around 70 islands off the north coast of mainland Scotland, separated from Caithness by the Pentland Firth - one of the most powerful tidal races in Europe.

Of those 70 islands, roughly 20 are inhabited and most of the population of around 22,000 lives on the largest island, known simply as the Mainland, where the towns of Kirkwall and Stromness serve as the administrative and cultural centres.

Orkney's history stretches back over 5,000 years. The Heart of Neolithic Orkney - a UNESCO World Heritage Site comprising Skara Brae, Maeshowe, the Ring of Brodgar and the Stones of Stenness - represents some of the best-preserved prehistoric sites anywhere in northern Europe. The islands were under Norse rule for around 600 years and that Scandinavian heritage remains visible in place names, dialect and culture.

The islands are reached by ferry from Scrabster and Aberdeen and by air from Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Inverness. Orkney's economy is built on agriculture, fishing, renewable energy, whisky and tourism and the islands have a quality of life consistently rated among the highest in Scotland.
