Welcome to Hannigarth, a self-catering holiday croft on the Island of Unst, Britain’s most northerly inhabited island.
Hannigarth is a traditional Shetland croft house looking out over Sandwick beach on the east coast of the island. The self-catering property sleeps 6 with one double and two twin bedrooms. It also includes a living room, kitchen and bathroom. Oh, and a shed! The shed has a variety of fuels for the stove in the sitting room. There is coal, wood, and smokeless ovoids. Access to the house from the nearest road is along a (well made) dirt track, through a couple of gates. There is an enclosed area for car parking.
The last tenant crofter to live in the house left in the late seventies and it was bought and lovingly renovated by the previous owners. They adding an extension to provide an extra bedroom and a bathroom.
The kitchen includes an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge freezer, pots, pans, cutlery, plates, mugs, glasses, caffetieres, kettle and sink.
The sitting room has a TV with freeview, a DVD player and a CD player. There is also a table that you can move into the kitchen so that you can seat 6 for meals. The bathroom has a heated towel rail, a bath, shower, hand basin and toilet. The bathroom also serves as utility with the washing machine and tumble dryer.
There are three bedrooms: the double in the new extension downstairs and two twins upstairs. The double bedroom is also where you will find the linen, along with hot water bottles. The double bed has an electric blanket. The two twin bedrooms are up the stairs between the kitchen and living room. Each has two single beds, a chest of drawers and some storage space.
There is no landline at Hannigarth and therefore, there is no internet connection other than through your phone. You are welcome to bring a dog with you but only by arrangement please. Hopefully yours is better behaved than ours.
