Land for sale

The Wishing Well, Eday, Orkney, Orkney Islands KW17

Once in a lifetime opportunity to own your own seaside land on the secluded Scottish Island of Eday- Scotland's haven for Wildlife Watchers.

The land has been measured at 965sqm (10,387sqft) and is located within yards of the sea offering unrivalled views.

The land is offered without planning permission and represents an outstanding opportunity for outdoor pursuits including camping, glamping, fishing, wild-swimming kayaking and a wildlife watching in one of the Uk's most stunning locations.

The site enjoys an enviable location within minutes of the ferry port linking to Kirkwall.

The land may offer future potential for development (as always development is subject to necessary consents/ permissions).

Access is excellent- direct access from road making this an easy to use site with potential to start using it immediately.

This opportunity is presented in a position that is almost unrivalled for access to nature and marine life. Birdlife thrives on Eday. Whimbrel and red-throated diver breed, as do puffin and black guilemot amongst the huge seabird colonies on the red standstone cliffs of Red Head, the eastern cliffs, and the uninhabited island of Calf of Eday.

Marine life is abundant and this plot offers an outstanding vantage point to catch a glimpse of Orca, Humpback Whales, Minke Whales, Pilot Whales, Porpoise, Dolphins, Fin Whales and Basking Sharks.

The Wishing Well offers access to local amenities including local shops on the beautiful Isle of Eday but this is a dream for those looking for peace and quiet and somewhere to get away and enjoy the remoteness that cannot be found in many places in the modern world.

Eday lies at the centre of Orkney's North Isles and offers abundant access to wildlife, archaeology and natural history. It is often referred to as 'mini-Orkney' as it offers the best of each of the neighbouring islands. Beautiful Beaches, Craggy Ciffs, Heather-clad hills and a plethora of ancient attractions.

Regular services to Orkney Mainland via ferry and the island is serviced by regular flights between Eday Airport and Kirkwall- 10 minute flight costing approximately £30-£40.

Eday is steeped in history and local attractions include the Stone of Setter, Vinquoy Chambered Cairn, Sands of Mussetter and the beautiful Mill Loch.
