Elegant Luxury in a Twin Room "Skidbladnir"

BethRating, 5 stars5 days ago
Looking after Belmont House is an act of love from Martin. It is beautifully presented and the rooms are warm and comfortable. I was tempted to spend the day sitting in the drawing room and just watching the weather but there is plenty to do outside even when the weather is challenging. Martin was very tolerant of our large puppy. He produced substantial evening meals. In the morning we got detailed instructions on options of where to go and how to get there.
A twin room is presented with two single beds, each topped with white linens and neatly folded towels. A small wooden chair and side table are positioned alongside the window, which is dressed with dark curtains. A flat-screen television is mounted on the wall.

Elegance and Luxury in a Georgian Country House

IsabelleRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
We couldn't have asked for a better experience! Martin was a perfect host: he was extremely nice and helpful and always available to answer our questions. What's more, he went above and beyond to meet our individual needs (lactose intolerance, vegetarian diet etc.) and also asked for our input. We can highly recommend staying at Belmont House. It's beautiful, peaceful and you'll be in good company :)

Single room-Ensuite with Shower

RhonaRating, 5 stars23 months ago
Nice to see the hotel back open with a friendly welcome and nothing to much trouble. Was made to feel at home, restaurant and bar were open and although an issue with the fryer it did not stop very tasteful meals which were well presented and reasonably priced. Continental breakfast was available with a good selection and cooked breakfast on request. Thought had been put into the accommodation, the hotel had recently been decorated, bed was extremely comfortable and the room was clean with refreshments available.
A bright and inviting room features a spacious bed adorned with neatly arranged white linens and folded towels. Two side tables with lamps are positioned next to the bed. Natural light enters through a large window, adorned with dark curtains, creating a calm and warm atmosphere.

Sea Winds, Lerwick townhouse with sea views.

DeborahRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Shetland is a beautiful place to visit and I suspect Sea Winds is the best place to stay if you do. The house is in the perfect spot, unbelievable views across Bain’s Beach and you can hear the sound of the sea and yet it is only a 5 minute walk to the centre of Lerwick. The photos really don’t do the house or views justice. The house is beautifully decorated with fabulous local art and there is everything you need (including all the dull stuff like a great shower, dishwasher, washing machine, etc). This is the best Airbnb I have ever stayed in and I have stayed in quite a few. And Ruth is the perfect host - she makes you feel incredibly welcome and is super quick to respond to any questions as well as offer brilliant tips on things to see and do. If you are planning a visit to Shetland you are really going to have a wonderful time if you are lucky enough to book Sea Winds. Thank you Ruth - we will be back!

The Shepherd's Cottage is delightful: you can walk to St. Ninian's, which is just gorgeous; Rachel was kind and helpful from start to finish; the cottage itself is cozy and thoughtfully stocked for cooking, relaxing and keeping warm; the bathroom is just across the driveway and is brand new with an excellent shower. All perfect for a restful visit to Shetland.

Coastal retreat with beach and woodland garden

DavidRating, 5 stars47 months ago
A very spacious, discrete, comfortable and well equipped home, optimally placed to explore the full extent of the islands. The nearby CoOp and garage in Brae have all the supplies you need. Fresh mussels and scallops available daily from the shellfish farm across the bay. Amazing wildlife, including otters on the lawn. Nikita is a super host, very supportive with good ideas, such as where to spot Orcas. The nearby Brae hotel does good dinners. Thoroughly recommend staying as long as you can to enjoy a special place, people and wildlife in the British Isles. Thanks Nikita!

Beautiful sea-views Beachfront Central Quiet Cosy

JerryRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Valerie's 2 bed apartment is located in the most scenic part of Lerwick. Bain's Beach is opposite and you could spend all day looking out of the panoramic window watching the world go by. It appears to have been recently refurbed as everything was like new. She has made sure everything you might need is there. It of course is in an iconic location if you are a fan of the TV show Shetland but that aside it is effectively in the middle of Lerwick. Shops and restaurants are a stones throw away. We will come back to Shetland - we had a wonderful trip - and would only want to stay at this location again
