Ervhouse B&B

*From AirBnb Reviews

“Had a fantastic stay! The place was centrally located, so with a car easy to see all that Shetland has to offer. Breakfasts were delicious, and I had dinner two evenings, which were wonderful.” – Brian, August 2023

“Far exceeded expectations, perfect, couldn’t recommend highly enough. Such a nice friendly knowledgeable Shetlander. Thank you, Julie.” – Caroline, August 2023

“Julie’s home is beautiful with a little woodland garden and flowers everywhere. The place is decorated so beautifully with her own lovely style. I absolutely loved staying there. The bed was super comfortable, she catered well for vegans, and was an all round delight to stay with. Highly recommended!” – Daniel, August 2023

“What an absolute pleasure it was to meet Julie and her husband, who are both splendid people with excellent conversation and culinary skills.

The bedroom was spotless, spacious, decorated with love and very comfortable. Privacy was also absolutely not a concern at any time.

The location itself is lovely, immersed in nature but close to all the main locations on Mainland Shetlands. Scalloway is a few minutes by car but Lerwick is also only 15 mins away.

The breakfast was ample, varied and delicious.

However, if you decide you stay here, you MUST at least once have dinner at Ervhouse. I have eaten at hundreds of restaurants worldwide, including Michelin-star ones, and I candidly have to say that the quality and the taste were among the very best I’ve ever had. The menu is varied, well-priced and there are more than one vegetarian options. I personally had the lamb and it was just to die for.
Super recommendation!” – Keith, July 2023

“The house was fresh, warm, clean and dry with a great location. Julie was friendly and helpful and very quick to respond to queries. Highly recommended.” – Jenny, January 2023

“Cottage always warm. Right by the harbour with great views and seals waiting for fish from the incoming boats provided good entertainment! All mod cons and great internet.” – Carolyn, October 2022


Fishers Croft

“Super lucky find this beautiful, fully equipped cottage for our stay – and with a stunning view.

Perfect place to chill out with the cottage equipped with everything needed + more! Loved being able to be self-sufficient. Stunning views, easy to find & central to the rest of the island. Great little pub not far away in Scalloway with super -friendly locals.” – Louse, June 2023

“We absolutely loved our stay at Fishers Cottage. It was so cosy and comfortable and the location is fab. We only planned on staying for a week over Christmas but due to me breaking my ankle and our van breaking down we ended up staying 3 1/2 instead. Couldn’t think of a nicer place to be stranded and Julie was kindness itself.” – Elizabeth, January 2023

“Wonderfully comfortable cottage in quiet but convenient location and great views over the harbour to the sea. We loved sitting in the front porch watching the sun go down. Bathroom & kitchen were great, we used both the bedroom & the sofa bed & both were comfortable. Would love to go back for another stay.” – Mark, September 2022
