Blandy

Scotland

Blandy occupies a remote corner of Sutherland, accessible via the A99 coastal road or the A836 from Lairg. The village sits amongst scattered crofting settlements like Tongue and Coldbackie, roughly 120km north of Inverness through dramatic Highland terrain. Two public fast chargers serve electric vehicles on the increasingly popular North Coast 500 route. The name derives from the Norse "bland," reflecting the area's mixed geological heritage.
