This place is just incredible!! The location is stunning - puffins on your front lawn! The views of the coastline are amazing, and people have spotted orca from here though we weren’t lucky this time. The accommodation itself is 5 star - so warm, cosy & comfortable. We had a great time cooking on the range, eating round the big table, and relaxing in the big bath tub. The beds are so very comfy - even the bunk beds! Can’t recommend this place highly enough, we just hope we’ll be back some day.
Perfect weekend break. We really enjoyed ourselves in a special place. Plenty of space. Thank you.
Our group of four adults was really looking forward to our three night stay at the Eshaness Lighthouse. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control, the wind on Fair Isle and the AirTask Plane not flying us off Fair Isle on the day of our reservation we completely missed our stay on mainland Shetland. I had good communication with the Eshaness office staff via telephone and the lighthouse custodian via phone and email. If I ever travel again to this part of the world I would try once again to stay at the Eshaness Lighthouse.
Fabulous location. Surprisingly cosy, warm cottage given how exposed it is! Be aware of ongoing costs of the ferry if travelling to and from Lerwick. With a car, they mount up. V friendly guardian. Would highly recommend the whole experience!
