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. Among the facilities at this property are full-day security and private check-in and check-out, along with free WiFi throughout the property. 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.
