"Sarah the host was lovely and we enjoyed her art/gallery and garden. Chalet was in a good position if you have a car. We didn't know you couldn't drive your car to your chalet - suitcases have to be lugged up and down steps. We would have liked some outdoor seating. Kitchen was small but good and had everything we needed. Lsundry was fine. I thought the chalets were near a beach because of the photos but they weren't."
NEW to VRBO: Shetland Sea View Stay | Near Lerwick And Beaches
10/10 Excellent
"great location for us - just outside lerwick, but also great for the South/sumburgh and west mainland. Great view, and all the amenities were excellent."
"A very nice room although I found the bed a bit soft. The staff are extremely nice and accommodating. The breakfast was excellent. I ate in the restaurant twice but recommend eating at some of the restaurants in town."
"My first room was a bit of a disappointment, but when I was moved to a ground floor room for my last two nights, it was a real “wow!” moment when I saw the view.
The restaurant was closed, so no breakfast was on offer. It would have been useful to know this up front.
The staff were very kind and helpful."
