Levenwick is located in the south mainland just off the A970, 17 miles south of Lerwick and 10 miles north of Sumburgh Head. If you are coming south from Lerwick, you will come round a right hand bend and see a road to sign marked 'Levenwick' on your left. IGNORE this ! Carry on along the main road (A970) for about 1/2 mile and you'll see our Community Hall (white building with modern wooden extension) on your left - the campsite is next to the Community Hall
Our campsite is open from May-September only.

Our secluded community garden just below the campsite is a peaceful place to sit, picnic, take in the panoramic views and listen and watch for birds such as curlew (whaap), oystercatcher (shalder) great skua (bonxie) - and many more. You may be very lucky and see orcas, dolphins or porpoises and you will certainly see seals! Shetland sheep and ponies often graze on croftland near the campsite.
Levenwick is the perfect spot for night-sky watching.
Want to eat out? Head north to Cunningsburgh (10 minutes drive) you'll find the recently opened Mackenzies Farm Shop & The Kitchen Table cafe.
