A recently refurbished spacious detached house in the small village of Bixter in the west mainland of Shetland. Sleeps up to 10 with the ability to add camp-beds and cots for children. Ideal central location from which to explore Shetland or enjoy an event, wedding or festival with family and friends.

Additionally, the owners also run the local village shop which is next door. Their staff will be available to help guests at any time when the shop is open (Mon - Sat 8am-7pm and Sun 12 - 5pm).
