A great place to stay, with a very welcoming host and great views at the front. Not all the rooms are en suite (ours wasn't) but it was fine. Breakfast is enormous and very tasty; don't plan to have lunch as well! Well worth the stay, with such fabulous secenery all around; don't miss the Fetherland walk to the north. more

We planned our trip in advance, checking B&Bs on the internet. We had arranged to stay at a B&B near Lerwick for a week, it was great, and time came to move on and experience another part of the islands, Northmavine. We had booked with Marcia for the only 3 nights available, 22, 23, 24 June 2008. We already had... more
