• Vita (9/5): -
• Nigel (8/5): Great communication. Clean and quiet. - Great communication. Clean and quiet- all I need for an overnight stay.
• James (9/5): -
• Sophie (10/5): -
• Mª Luz (10/5): Recomendable - Todo muy acogedor y el dueño muy amable Todo estuvo muy bien
• Amanda (10/5): Perfect home base for exploring south Shetland - Excellent location, close to buses, historic downtown and walking distance to Clickimin Broch, Da Sketts and The Knab. Continental breakfast is more than generous. Some of the rooms have sneaky little ocean views. Peter is a kind and helpful host.
• Qing (9/5): -
• Anette (10/5): - Ausblick, sehr gutes kontinentales Frühstück, freundlicher und hilfsbereiter Manager Alles war okay
• John (10/5): Excellent location and accommodation, thank you - Peter, the host was excellent, the shower was one of the better ones that we’ve had and there was an excellent selection for the continental breakfast Could do with a mirror in the bedroom to aid with hair drying
• Claire (10/5): Excellent host, location & facilities - Peter was an excellent host, from his welcome and communication and enabling me to store my bag straight off the ferry at 8am and on to 5pm on my day of leaving, to giving me recommendations on what to do and where to eat. The bedroom was comfortable, light and had great facilities. The breakfast room facilities and choice was excellent. Nothing!
• Bruce (10/5): We felt more at home with Peter at Eddlewood than anywhere else on our month long holiday. - Our host, Peter, was very helpful and hospitable. Whether it was providing an early breakfast or putting us in touch with ferry bookings, he always went one step beyond to make our stay enjoyable. He was always friendly and conversational. We will remember our stay fondly, in no small measure due to Peter. Eddlewood is conveniently located in an interesting part of Lerwick just a 5 minute walk from the harbour and Commercial Street. The premises are spotless, the rooms spacious and the breakfasts generous. A beaut place.
• Pleun (9/5): -
• Esther (8/5): - Fijne gastheer Peter, goed verzorgd ontbijt en op loopafstand van het centrum en vlakbij een grote parkeerplaats om je (huur)auto te parkeren.
• HANS THOMAS (10/5): - Jättebra frukost
• Michael (8/5): Nice place close to center of town - Good location , close to center of town. Nice view from my upper floor. Breakfast was very basic. Not what you would expect from an English Breakfast. No eggs but little pre-packaged pieces of cheese, packaged jam portions.
• Richard (9/5): Aanrader - Ontbijt was 'continental' - dus geen bacon and eggs - maar heel goed. Verse fruit; echt cafetiere koffee. Niks
• Brian (8/5): A good experience overall. We enjoyed our stay. - Very nice breakfasts. Our host, Peter, was very helpful. Room size was adequate but a little crammed.
• Max (10/5): Perfect location, comfortable rooms, outstanding host. - The host was lovely and worked very hard to make sure we had all we needed for a great stay.
• Louise (10/5): Great location, great house in Lerwick - It was in a great location with a lovely view. The family room is a good size. It was clean and well stocked up. Peter was a great host.
• Norman (9/5): -
• Seetal (9/5): Location is great, host fantastic and a fabulous visit - Peter the host was very helpful and friendly and this was all before the trip. He continued to be a source of knowledge, full of humour and helpful during the stay. Breakfast as yummy, room always clean and the house felt cosy. Location in Lerwick soooooo so good. Lots of parking close to property. Not soundproofed, but then what do you expect of a beautiful building such as this.
• Michael (10/5): Excellent accomodation great location and wonderful host - Very comfortable and very well looked after Nothing
• Robert (10/5): - We were in Shetland for the fiddle week and this location was central. Nice host, great breakfast spread and beautiful afternoon sunshine in the windows of room 5. Bob
• Norman (10/5): - The guest house was ideal for our short stay in a good location. Peter was a good host, and continental breakfast was excellent. Beds comfy and ensuite bathroom ideal too. Nothing
• Lynn (10/5): Peter was a great host and made us feel very welcome - Hospitality, great location, great host, great view, everything we needed
• Brutti (9/5): - very good position and even if it doesn't have a private car park, it is easy to park close to the guest house. The owner is really friendly, kind and helpful and that adds value to the place
• Victoria (9/5): One night in Lerwick - Very pleasant guest house in the centre of Lerwick. Peter the owner was extremely helpful and welcoming.
• Georg Höd (7/5): Für kurze Aufenthalte in Ordnung - Freundlicher, netter Gastgeber (Peter), nette Lage der Unterkunft auf einem Hügel. Hoher Wasserdruck in der Dusche, Pluspunkt für abnehmbaren Duschkopf. Das Zimmer gehört unserer Meinung nach modernisiert: Putz bröckelt von den Wänden (z.B. Badezimmer), Badezimmereinrichtung alt und abgewohnt. Leichter Schimmel zwischen den Doppelglasfenstern. Handtücher katastrophal, fühlen sich an wie Schleifpapier und gehören dringend (!!) getauscht! Seife im Badezimmer mit sehr intensiver Fruchtcocktailnote, da würde ich etwas neutraleres empfehlen.
• Colin (10/5): Exceptional - A very pleasant boarding house & Peter is particularly pleasant. Nice stay. All fine.
• Agnes (8/5): I thoroughly enjoyed my stay - I didn't want to leave Shetland! - Very welcoming reception. Well-appointed room. Ideally located near the centre of Lerwick, close to the sea with supermarket and other shops within walking distance. Free on-street parking as well as car parks nearby.
• John (10/5): - Really nice BnB in an easily accessible part of Lerwick. Peter was a friendly and attentive host
• Elena (10/5): Lovely guesthouse - It's a lovely guesthouse. The room was clean and comfortable. It's in a great central location, and the host is wonderful. Breakfast is good, too.
• Heidi (10/5): One night in Lerwick - Imøtekommende og vennlig husvert. Sentralt og koselig. Kommer gjerne tilbake.
• Paula (8/5): - The house is nice and clean. There were cookies each day, and things to make coffee/tea, but water would have been wonderful. The room is small, but it was fine for 3 nights. It was exceptionally warm while we were there and the host purchased a fan to combat the heat. It was much appreciated. Great stay! Parking situation is limited.
• Christopher (10/5): Fabulous - The location was perfect and the facilities were fantastic. Peter was also a great host
• Dr. (8/5): Very good -
• Alan (10/5): - Lovely place. Easy walk to Commercial Street and charming town.

Peter was an excellent host and so helpful. He let us into the room a lot earlier than the actual check-in time. The walk uphill at night.
• Elizabeth (10/5): Beautiful historic home close to historic centre and the waterfront with very good breakfast. - A three person room ; amazing location; quiet and the breakfast was great. We stayed 4 days - I think the space became a bit cramped - but that’s our issue really.
• Ian (8/5): Very good - Nice continental breakfast with real coffee Staying in Shetland is getting a tad expensive these days, though I can understand the effects of inflation on the hotel trade.

• David (8/5): Very good - Peter was extremely helpful nothing a problem Good breakfast Parking in the street sometimes a fair distance.
• Charles (7/5): We enjoyed our stay very much but a few creature comforts would make it perfect for the budget. - Very hospitable and helpful with our questions and their recommendations always worked. Peter and Jenny were really friendly, and the breakfast was generous. Well located and easy walk to the town centre restaurant and shops. Smallish room, a little too cosy. Needed more space to put our things.

• Steven (8/5): Very hospitable host and great location - Peter helped me a lot regarding the logistics, not only to reach Lerwick but once I was there. If you want to explore Lerwick you can basically go everywhere on foot from the guest house. He recommended several restaurants and pubs which I tried and they were all good. He was around when I needed him. I enjoyed the breakfast because of the fresh fruit and the cereal, however I never ate anything hot. My room was more than adequate for one person with a large bathroom. Peter also supplied an extra small heater which was used and appreciated. The room was a bit chilly but as mentioned an additional heater was provided and I only saw the extra blankets that were available when I was packing to leave!
• William (9/5): Superb -
