Veness

Scotland

Veness is a small community on Sanday in Orkney's North Isles, reached by ferry from Kirkwall followed by local island roads. The settlement sits amid Sanday's characteristic flat terrain and sandy coastline, with short drives connecting it to neighbouring communities like Backaland and Mill Bay. The island features Sanday Airport for air travel and roughly 2 EV charging points. Veness provides access to the remarkable 5,000-year-old Quoyness Chambered Cairn, one of Orkney's finest Neolithic monuments.
