"I would highly recommend this place to anyone coming to Shetland. A perfect base from which to explore the islands with"

10.0

Could not fault this lovely guest house. Ryan and Anita were kind and welcoming, happy to share information about Lerwick and Shetland. You are steps from Commercial Street but still feels private and cozy. I stayed in the single room which was ideal for me travelling solo. As I was departing later in the evening on the ferry they made me welcome to come back and use the dining room long after check out.

"Amazing short break in beautiful, welcoming guest house in the heart of Lerwick."

10.0

Great location in the heart of Lerwick and the owners and staff were wonderful! Everyone was so welcoming and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was amazing with a good amount of choice. My room was beautifully furnished and very comfortable with a large bathroom, TV with a good selection of apps, and Tea/coffee and biscuits. There was a mini fridge with fresh milk and water - a lovely touch. I arrived early and they were happy to take my bag and contacted me as soon as the room was ready. There are lots of places to eat, shop, and things to do nearby. Would highly recommend this guest house!

Nothing- it was all good!
