The accommodation: a peaceful haven

A contemporary, mono-pitched house sitting on the quiet shores of Shetland’s west side, Westshore is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the peace and solitude of the surrounding landscape.

The house has won several awards for its design, the purpose of which was to make the most of the surrounding landscape. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the open-plan living and dining space frame the stunning sea views and dawn-to-dusk skies. The conservatory, linked to half of the original croft house by a sheltered courtyard, floods with evening light.

Inside, you’ll find all you need for a relaxing holiday: a fully equipped kitchen for leisurely cooking and baking. A good library of books and games for in-house relaxation, and comfortable seating for every view. Outside, there is room for parking and bike storage.
