Some testimonials
from our guests...
The watercolour to the right was painted by Michel, a
former guest in August 2007, his quote below:
"In memory of your nice Shetlands isles, a watercolour of a
young harbour seal sketched on Burra. The legend is: please, don't
disturb!"
France, August 2007.
The long weekend would have already been a success if we spotted just
one otter and one seal.......and we got our otter, plenty of seals.
Excellent weather (Given the low expectation) and some marvellous
scenery.
On top of that 'Nilmurhaa' was a great place to call home every night.
We will definitely let everyone in Aberdeen know how much we enjoyed
it.
Aberdeen, September 2007.
Our first visit to Shetland has been a memorable one
– mild weather stunning marine scenery and a very comfortable base
to explore from provided by Ann.
This is a perfect base to cover the islands – from Sumburgh to Saxa
Vord. After more than 500 miles on Shetland’s excellent roads and
meeting so many friendly people, we’ll be back. Despite Shetland’s
powerful winds the cottage left us smug, comfortable and warm – a
credit to Ann and Chris. Thanks.
P.S. Thanks for Da Simmer Dim and great bread!
Forres. Moray. September 2007
The house is very comfortable and well equipped. Thank
you for all the little extras. We had a week of reasonable weather and
did many walks on mainland, Yell and Unst. We enjoyed the beaches,
flowers and birds and particularly enjoyed watching the otters. We saw
otter(s) every day in the bay outside the house and on several
occasions watched up to 5 cavorting around in a bay a little way down
the coast. Thanks for a great holiday.
East Lothian. August/September 2007
Shetland is shining! We have had a great
week of bird watching, walking and driving around the Islands. We
especially liked St Ninian’s, Noss seeing Muckle Flugga, Mousa and a
tiny place called Nibon on our way back from Eshaness. The weather was
ok with one simply perfect day of blue sky and stillness – that was
fabulous. Thanks for a lovely place to stay and for being so kind and
helpful.
Durham August 2007
Enjoyed our stay despite bad weather (It rained a
lot!). The scenery is spectacular and worth the long journeys
the west coast was fab but raining all the way. Bressay was a
great place for walking and bird watching. Sumburgh Head was even more
impressive weather good too!
Seals basking on the beach just up the road from the house were a
great unexpected delight!
The highlight was walking on Unst to Muckle Flugga to see fantastic
cliffs and birds. Peace and tranquility in your lovely
accommodation and your thoughtfulness regarding ‘little’ things
that your guests may need was noticed. It is a great place to stay
relax and unwind. We will try to return, maybe when we retire!
Many thanks.
