A Coastal Hideaway on Sanday's Spectacular Shoreline - Backaskaill Cottage provides the perfect setting to relax and recharge.

Backaskaill Cottage is a charming heritage retreat nestled beside the mile-long silver sands of Backaskaill Bay on the beautiful island of Sanday. Combining traditional Orcadian character with contemporary comfort, this lovingly restored cottage offers an idyllic escape for couples, solo travellers and anyone seeking peace, space and authentic island living.

Set within the historic Backaskaill landscape, the cottage enjoys a unique position just moments from one of Orkney's most beautiful beaches.

Here, the rhythm of the tides, the call of seabirds and the endless sea views create the perfect setting to relax, recharge and reconnect with nature.
