Sandy Lane suits people who value peace and a strong sense of place. The 2011 census counted just 32 people in the village's main postcode, so daily life connects closely with Derry Hill and Bromham for schools and shops, and with Chippenham and Calne for supermarkets. Derry Hill has a shop, Derry Hill Church of England Primary School and a pub, the Lansdowne Arms, which has carried that name since 1838, and Bromham has St Nicholas Church of England Primary School. Bowood House and Gardens is next door, with a Capability Brown landscape, a lake almost a kilometre long, two miles of rhododendron walks in May and June, a golf course and a hotel on the Home Farm site.
The name Sandy Lane is first recorded in 1675, when the village stood on a route from London to Bath, and the Roman town of Verlucio lay to the south-east. The village is best known for its thatched cottages of local ironstone, built for the Bowood estate, and architectural historians single it out as a picturesque estate village. The whole village has been a Conservation Area since 1975. The George Inn is an 18th century building re-fronted in the 19th century, and the small thatched church, built as a chapel in 1892, was rededicated to St Mary and St Nicholas in 1981.
Chippenham station is the nearest, on the Great Western Main Line with regular trains to London Paddington, Bath and Bristol. The A342 runs north to Chippenham and south to Devizes, making Devizes an easy run for shopping and services, the A3102 to Calne joins just south of the village, and junction 17 of the M4 is reached via Chippenham.
