Does anyone know whether there is someone that will take people (i.e. me) on to Stroma?

Jimmy Simpson Lives at "Burnside" Canisbay and you will get his Phone Number in Directory Enquiries. Or you can contact his Son William Simpson "Burnside" Canisbay as well.

Hi.
Sent you a pm with contact info.
Cheers
I'm from "that 'ert" and have often organised trips to Stroma with friends and work mates over the years. Jimmy is a lovely man, and thoroughly enjoys a wee sing song on the island with his "boxie" and friends at the "main house" !!
I'd MORE than recommend a trip to "The Island In The Stream" !!! Now it's William who takes you over to the island and he is very accomodating about times. Myself, personally, I go over now for the sheer fact that you can guarantee getting beautiful mushrooms to pick all over the island, but obviously you have to time the time of year right - end September roughly.
Oh, must tell you about the time that we were coming back on the boat and William stopped it in mid-stream for the pure fact of watching porpoises along side - MAGNIFICENT !!
Fantastic sight into an old time island with free reign to travel where you want to go!!
