The Shetland Islands can be found off the northeast of Scotland. This archipelago is made up of 100 islands, but only 15 of them are inhabited. This remote corner of Britain is, in fact, closer t Norway than the Scottish Mainland. It’s a great place to escape for a cottage holiday.
This remote, wild and wonderful place has a rich and long history; signs of which can be seen across the islands. From archaeological sites to traditional crofthouses you won’t have to wander far to get a taste of what life here was once like. In fact, the Shetland Islands have been largely untouched by the march of time, and these stunningly unspoilt natural surroundings are truly stunning.
