Easterhoull Chalets offer comfortable two-bedroom self-catering accommodation, sleeping up to four guests. We have a minimum stay of three nights and, unfortunately, cannot accommodate pets.Set on the hillside above Scalloway, our nine chalets enjoy beautiful views across the surrounding countryside and sea. We’re just a few minutes from the historic village of Scalloway and around 10 minutes’ drive from Lerwick, making Easterhoull an ideal central base for exploring Shetland.Each chalet is fully self-contained and provides a comfortable home from home, whether you’re visiting for a short break or a longer stay.Guests are also welcome to explore our one-acre hillside garden, with its Polycrub and wonderful views, and visit Sarah Kay Arts studio during opening hours.Easterhoull Chalets is a small, family-run Shetland business and has been welcoming visitors for many years. We pride ourselves on offering friendly, locally run accommodation in a peaceful setting with fantastic views.Book direct for our best rates.
I design and make unique handcrafted cushions, bags, and other items all made using techniques such as needle felting and knitting in 100% wool. I also run needle felting workshops and one to one knitting sessions.
Sarah Kay is a Shetland-born artist and maker based in Scalloway, creating distinctive resin artwork inspired by the islands, coastline and sea.Working from her hillside studio overlooking Scalloway, Sarah creates original resin seascapes, mixed-media artwork, sea glass jewellery and unique pieces incorporating locally collected beach finds. A lifelong collector of Shetland sea glass, her work is rooted in a genuine connection with the islands and the sea, with many pieces inspired by places she has known since childhood.Visitors are welcome to browse the studio and discover artwork handmade in Shetland, from small, affordable keepsakes to larger statement pieces. Sarah’s surrounding hillside garden is also open to visitors during the summer season, with beautiful views across Scalloway and the surrounding coastline.Authentically Shetland, locally made and inspired by the sea.

We offer guided sea kayak trips for beginners and experienced paddlers. From Gentle to Moderate to Advanced Water Guiding and Skills Coaching. All trips are weather, forecast and sea-state dependent. As such, we don't have set locations, but mostly move around Lerwick, Scalloway and the surrounding areas.Shetland has an amazing coastline. From no experience necessary, through to experienced kayakers with your own equipment. Taster, half day and full day trips are available. We are not about speed or distance, but about exploring the amazing coastline and getting close to the cliffs, wildlife, seabirds and sometimes encountering seals along the way.You will be provided with waterproof sea kayaking salopettes/trousers and jacket to wear over your own clothes. A spraydeck to keep the water out and a Buoyancy Aid (PFD) with pockets for nibbles and sunglasses etc. All equipment is of very good quality and is regularly safety checked. Your group will be accompanied by at least one, often two, well-qualified and highly experienced Sea Kayak Leaders. They will give you basic tuition if required, top tips and help you to make the most of your kayaking experience.We have two double kayaks; the rest are single closed-cockpit kayaks. We also have a canoe for taster sessions if yours is a family group with little ones. If you have no transport, we may be able to arrange collection and drop off so you can come out with us; and if possible, we are able to collect and return cruise liner passengers from the pier. We do not have a schedule of trips, but decide the location based on prevailing conditions and the weather forecast.The best way to contact us is to use the Contact us form on our website as this gives us additional information to help with making the best opportunity for your holiday experience.
