8 Thorfinn Street

Overview



This lovely house has a livingroom, 3 bedrooms, kitchen and bathroom, all decorated and furnished to a good standard. You will find everything you need in this spacious yet warm holiday home.

Just steps away from the house is a small locally-owned shop which is open daily. The staff are very friendly and helpful and as well as supplying fresh bread and milk daily, the shop is well stocked with everyday items.

A leisurely stroll will take you to the Breiwick Bay area where you can enjoy magnificent views to the South and West. Seals can be seen basking on the rocks, otters playing in the waves at the Sletts, and sunsets in the summer are quite breathtaking.. Also a short stroll from the house is the beautiful open green Knab area which boasts a nine-hole Golf course which can be used without payment of green fees! A walk around the Knab will lead you to the picturesque South end of the town and leads to the harbour, where during the summer months, the many boats and yachts who visit tend to give the centre of town a cosmopolitan feel.

The house is well situated for easy acess to most restaurants in the town and is quite close to a Chinese restaurant which offers a wide selection of Chinese and Thai dishes.

There are many popular visitor attractions within walking distance, flower park, play parks and the Clickimin Leisure Centre and Pool are all only a short walk away. Local transport links are easily accessible

All in all, the house at Thorfinn Street is a perfect central, yet peaceful location to enjoy everything a holiday in Shetland has to offer.
