This traditional cottage has been recently renovated to provide a modern, quirky and cosy home away from home. A scenic, relaxing setting to get away from it all and a great base for exploring Shetland. With magnificent sea views, Driftwood provides beautiful coastal walks from your doorstep. During the summer months, your nearest neighbours are Shetland ponies who may peer over the fence to say hello. There's plenty of outdoor space to enjoy watching local wildlife along the shoreline. Driftwood is within 10 minutes of Sumburgh airport and around a 25 minute drive from Lerwick. It offers an ideal base for exploring Shetland. The cottage has a large kitchen with a breakfast bar for dining and a snug area with a sofa. The kitchen is well equipped with electric hob and oven, microwave, kettle, toaster, fridge/freezer, washing machine and radio. The cosy living room has a wood burning stove, a corner sofa and comfy armchair, large wall mounted TV and well stocked bookshelves. The bedroom has a comfy double bed, plenty of wardrobe space and a beautiful view over the sea to watch the sun rise if you're an early bird. There is also a blackout blind for the light summer nights when it doesn't get dark! There is a large power shower in the bathroom along with toilet, sink, mirror and storage space. A sun porch provides ample space for outdoor clothing, boots etc and has a good seating area. The garden is a great place to sit out and enjoy the surrounding scenery and wildlife. We've spotted seals, pods of dolphins, basking sharks, an occassional otter and even an orca or two in the sea below the house.
