    Fetlar

    Posted by smokeinthewoods 2 August 2009

    We found this small island, (pop. 48ish) to be a place that was both beautiful and timeless. Beautiful because of its spectacular and uncluttered land and sea scapes; timeless because there was really nothing that we, or anyone else could find to be in a hurry about.

    We stayed at the one and only Bed and Breakfast run by Nic who, besides running the island post office and shop, excels at cooking the most tasty and generous breakfasts and evening meals (when he is not practising his penny whistle...) recommended.

    Well synchronised travel by bus/ferry/bus/ferry from Lerwick to Fetlar.
