The Shetland Islands are a suprisingly
diverse collection of over 100 islands in this North
archipelago. The port of Lerwick offers you the chance
to learn more about their staggering archaeological
and more recent history, as well to soak up the glorious
secnery. Visit the 5,000 year old ancient prehistoric
site of Jarlshof, or the more 'modern' site of Scalloway
Castle, built in 1600 or have a private
visit to Lunna
House where the owners tell the fascinating
history of the house right up to its more recent role
in the Second World War as the base for the Norwegian
Resistance! A visit to the Shetlands will be a memorable
experience for all.
