LOCAL FACILITIES & AMENITIES IN BRIEF
Despite its population (around 550) Sanday is a thriving island. Rich agricultural land produces top
quality beef cattle. Although agriculture is the mainstay of the economy, tourism and increasingly
distance working are growing features. The name Sanday reflects the miles of sandy bays and beaches.
Wildlife is abundant and well-conserved. With a little knowledge and patience, you’ll see rare birds &
flora and if you’re lucky, otters, orca and other wildlife in the clean, rich seas.

Sanday has a dynamic social and cultural scene. Visitors can enjoy our heritage centre, craft hub, artists
workshops, archaeological sites, outdoor pursuits, beach walks, cycling, wildlife, photography and more. There are numerous organised events throughout the year such as fishing trips, agricultural show, lectures, dances/ceilidhs, lighthouse & wildlife tours.

Island facilities include a swimming pool, fitness centre, play park, general store & village shop a short walk from here , two
hotels/pubs offering meals and takeaways. We have a post office, but no bank or police.

Lovely, clean and deceptively spacious for 3 of us to spend a week. E-bikes excellent. Well situated very close to one of the two shops and a 15 minute cycle to either the hotel or the pizzeria for dinner. Would recommend for small families.

Stay in Sanday

We were met on the ferry by chance by the lady that owned the house that we were staying in, she led us directly to the property and showed us round the house. The house was exactly as described, clean, tidy and very well equipped. The lady's husband worked on the ferry and on one occasion he phoned his wife and asked her to make sure we were going to arrive on time. The whole experience was perfect.

We had a great week's stay at Julie & Jason's bungalow on Sanday . The place is immaculate and was warm and cosy for our arrival . Communication and directions were provided and we had a very friendly welcome from them both . You'll love the emus in their garden , go and visit Julie's glass studio too.The house is really comfortable, quiet and well-equipped and centrally located for everywhere on the island. Sanday is a beautiful place and this is a perfect place to appreciate the island .
