Aesthus

Overview

Sole use of the drying green and garden, which is suitable for children. It is fully furnished and equipped with bedding, sheets, towels, crockery and cutlery for six people. Heating is by oil fueled central heating which also provides hot water - the charge for this is included in the rent. Cooking is by electricity. There is also an electric fire in the living room. Electricity charges will be calculated when you leave - the meter read upon arrival and departure. There is ample parking space.

ACCOMMODATION COMPRISES:- Open plan living room/dining room/kitchen. Three bedrooms - 2 twin on the first floor and one double on the ground floor with en-suite shower, toilet and washhand basin. Bathroom with bath, toilet, washhand basin and bidet - also on the ground floor.

A colour TV with DVD and VCR is provided and a plentiful supply of books for all ages, a few videos and some games.

The cottage, with excellent sea views, sits on a working farm rearing pure Shetland sheep and Beef cattle. There is a small marshland loch which is overlooked by one of the upstairs bedrooms where many birds nest. Otters, seals and hares are some of the wildlife seen in this area. Aesthus is only about 6 miles from Lunna House, well worth a visit and which played a major part in "The Shetland Bus". Also we have "The Cabin", a small museum, mostly of military memrabelia, on the road to Vidlin.

About half an hour's drive from Lerwick brings you to this lovely cottage, only 2 miles from our excellent local shop and Post Office. Also convenient for ferries to Whalsay, Out Skerries and the northern isles of Shetland.

We are sure that you will find this area very interesting and welcoming. We look forward to seeing you.
