This was our first time in the Shetlands and we were there for the 33rd Annual Folk Festival. Apparently, we were Westhall B&B's first guests from the States, so we had our work cut out for us :-) Our host, Julie picked us at the ferry terminal at 7:30 in the morning - now that's service! We were absolutely delighted... More

Excellent stay, found this place by luck. This acommodation is a must if you visit Shetland. It is far enough away from the town, yet close enough to enjoy. Eggs for breakfast are eggceptional. I am planning another visit, however not sharing with you when as need to make sure I get booked

Wow, a wonderful hotel in a stunning location, just outside Lerwick centre! Breathtaking sea views with seals sunbathing on the rocks outside, peaceful and tranquil surroundings. Julie and Gordan were extremely welcoming, as were their chickens with their free range eggs. The breakfast was freshly cooked to order and nothing was too much trouble. The rooms spotless, full of character... More

On booking I was quoted £55, on the morning of travel I received an e-mail advising that the single room was no longer available but that I could have a double for £65. Interesting that there was actually only one other guest. The room was not clean, there were black hairs in the shower, bathroom, bed and on the floor.... More

You stayed in May 2012 and you reviewed Westhall almost a year later in February 2013. You will note from our current reviews that the management changed in mid May 2012. It is very different now and you are welcome to come and find out.. More

To round off our stay in Shetland this past week we spent a night in Westhall. We used to own this B&B and cottage but sold it at the end of September 2010 to return to Scotland to be nearer to our family down south. We were delighted to see the house and garden in very good order and were... More

We have been staying in cottages all over the United Kingdom for 30 years and this is by far the very best accommodation we have rented. The cottage is a Tardis - inside it is light, spacious and beautifully decorated in honey and cream tones. The kitchen is absolute bliss, so easy, plenty of space and a joy to cook... More

Stayed here 3 days and loved it. Lovely big room with views out over the coast and beach. Short walk along the sea road to view seals and not too far to get into Lerwick - maybe 1 mile. Great breakfast and lovely host who has just recently taken on the business. Wifi, en-suite, digital TV, tea + coffee in... More
