"We will definitely come back"

9.0

Gorgeous location that is easily reachable by public transport from Lerwick. The owners are very, very friendly and invested in the place, working hard to make it last another lifetime. The food was delicious too. Well prepared and fresh. We had lovely chats with both the owner, locals and other guests. The place really calls for good conversations.

If you are on a tight budget, it may be challenging. There are no cooking facilities and the place is relatively remote.

"Eccezionale, comfort e ottima cucina. Ideale punto di partenza per escursioni nel Northmavine"

8.0

La posizione è eccezionale. La struttura, per quanto un po' datata, è molto confortevole. I titolari sono molto gentili, così come tutto il personale.

"Fijn hotel, geweldige ligging, tamelijk duur"

9.0

Fijn sfeervol hotel. Het oude gebouw is mooi gerenoveerd, de kamers zijn ruim en comfortabel. Voortreffelijk ontbijt, goed restaurant. En een leuke pub om iets te drinken. Dichtbij Eshaness, een geweldig uitkijkpunt. En een prachtig uitzicht

Wij vinden het vrij duur vergeleken met andere hotels. In de pub bleef het personeel luidruchtig aan de bar zitten
