Da Crö is the perfect relaxing retreat for your Shetland holiday.
It is at a quiet hilltop location in Hamnavoe, Burra Isle with wonderful views over the village and out past the lighthouse to uninhabited islands at the edge of the Atlantic.
Outside Da Crö there is an accessible patio area with seats and a table facing west towards the sunset. It is a great place to sit and relax at the end of the day.
There are a number of marvellous coastal walks close by; the white sands of one of the best loved Shetland beaches, Meal beach, are just a short stroll away.
Even though it is one of the scenic locations used in the Shetland detective series and a popular place with wild swimmers, you often have the beach all to yourself.
On the walk out to the lighthouse you might see seals, otters or orca.
Burra Isle is on the west side of Shetland and is a great base for anyone visiting Shetland. It is centrally located being only a short drive to the capital, Lerwick, and many other beautiful locations.
The kitchen has an induction hob with extractor fan, a large microwave, kettle, fridge, toaster, radio and plenty of storage space.
As you eat your meal at the kitchen table you look out across the village to the lighthouse and the North Atlantic.
The hallway has one wall filled with books and DVD’s.
At one end of the hall is a washing machine. There is an outdoor clothes line and an indoor clothes rack.
