Nyord Village


Nyord Island's sole, eponymous village sports an octagonal chapel and a cluster of 19th-century tiled and thatched cottages, surrounded by idyllic gardens. Cars are banned (there’s a car park outside), so the loudest sound is likely to be the chattering birdlife.

A couple of cafes, galleries and a cheesemaker cater to summer visitors.
