“Eddlewood Guest House struck me as a place where a warm welcome is always on the cards, largely thanks to Peter, the host, who seems genuinely invested in his guests' comfort and providing local advice. The location is undeniably a significant draw, placing Lerwick's amenities and scenic coastal spots within easy reach, though guests should be mindful of the stairs. Rooms, while adequate, often surprise with pleasant sea views, and the continental breakfast is consistently noted as generous and good.”
