Orkney and Shetland

Sailing between Orkney and Shetland, the judges see a home inspired by Vikings, a converted ruined steading, and a maritime-themed fisherman’s cottage - but only one can make the final.

Architect and teacher Michael Angus, renowned Glasgow-based interior designer Anna Campbell-Jones and globally recognised lifestyle blogger Kate Spiers scour the country for Scotland’s ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ of the Year.

This episode sees them sailing between the Northern Isles, where Michael and Anna take up arms at a Norse-inspired self-build in Shetland which replicates the dimensions of a Viking longhouse.

Over in Orkney, the judges tour a unique family home that has been converted from a ruined steading over the course of 13 years and admire the homemade lamps, furniture and views.

Last to be considered is a maritime-themed fisherman’s cottage in Stromness, where they must decide if small really is beautiful.

Each house is marked out of ten, with the judges looking for unique, well-designed and much-loved homes. But only one will make it through to the final.
