					  This was a wonderful, a very cosy Airbnb and Jacqueline was an amazing host.  It was in a really good location - fairly central to mainland Shetland and had... read more good access to all parts of the island.  The Shetland Isles have so much to offer - I had some amazing adventures and the cottage was a wonderful place to come back to in the evening. It had amazing views and I loved the log fire!
