Featuring a garden and views of garden, Norlande is a guest house situated in a historic building in Lerwick, 500 metres from Bain's Beach. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are available at the guest house free of charge. The accommodation provides full-day security and private check-in and check-out for guests.

If Norlande was a Hollywood movie, I would say it had the highest production values! Amanda's communication was excellent, which I valued during a very erratic journey to Shetland for a funeral. The room was beautifully decorated and had everything I needed. It was a well positioned room, with a great bathroom and facilities, especially the monsoon shower with built-in radio. The bed was so comfortable, better than any of the big brand places, and I slept so well. The breakfast hamper was a delight and had more than enough supplies and snacks, which kept me going at breakfast and even at night at the end of a long day. The location is just 8 mins walk from Commercial Street and the main strip with its bars, restaurants for lunch and dinner, and for the shops too The Isleburgh Community Centre, Town Hall, and new library are all a short walk away. A taxi from the ferry to Norlande cost £4.50 with Allied Taxi (book ahead!), or you could walk in 15 mins on a drier day - they DO happen 😆 Amanda herself is very hospitable and welcoming. I would recommend Norlande any day.

Providing free WiFi and a garden, Solheim Guest House offers rooms in Lerwick, 500 metres from Bain's Beach. The guest house features family rooms.

The nearest airport is Sumburgh Airport, 41 km from the guest house.

The hotel was neither far from the center of the town (about ten minutes walking distance) nor from the countryside (in less than five minute's drive could be out and away of town). Breakfast was abundant and more like a Scottish breakfast than a continental one. Could keep going till dinner time without a real need for a lunch break.

    Charming decor, very old-fashioned and cosy, warm, great view of the original farmland, fantastically comfortable beds with gorgeous snuggly flanellete sheets! Lovely family-run hotel, courteous and attentive service, delicious food! Also they were very generous with clean towels, extra milk for the minibar, basically anything we asked for. Melina genuinely seemed to care whether or not we were enjoying our trip!

    Such an interesting and historical house with so much to look at and enjoy in each room. Our bedroom was roomy, the bed was very comfortable and the nights in the country were oh so quiet. Located about 10 minutes away from Lerwick, it is a great location for exploring both Lerwick and the rest of Shetland. The dining room provided a spectacular dinner for us one evening with the best salmon we ate in all of Scotland. Breakfasts were plentiful and delicious. The staff were friendly and very helpful.

    The Hotel is excellently located to explore Shetland and the other islands. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. Breakfast was included with a choice of cereals, fresh fruit salad and yoghurts in addition to a cooked menu to choose from. Well maintained property, my room was exactly as expected, comfortable, clean and quiet. Evening meals are available as required from a varied menu and sensibly priced.

    Such a warm welcome from Pat - great location just outside Lerwick. My son and I were attending the Shetland Classic so I appreciated the big drive. A great base to explore from. Inexpensive taxi ride to Lerwick if you want to have a drink with dinner. A lovely cooked breakfast every day.
