"This hotel was very poor. Decor was appalling with aged dirty wallpaper coming off the walls. The TV did not work at all with stations not tuned in. We (3 adults one room) stayed there for 3 nights and at no point were we given fresh clean cups for our tea, freshened bedding/towels or bins changed. No WiFi given. No bar or restaurant facilities. Carpets worn and windows dirty. It was very disappointing and a shame. Definitely not value for money!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in East Burra?
The best area to stay in East Burra is the central region around the main settlement of Hamnavoe, offering a good balance of accessibility and amenities.

Hamnavoe is the largest village on East Burra and acts as a central point for exploring the island. It's situated around a natural harbour, with most of the village facilities, including the local shop and the community hall, located along the main road that runs through it. The village is relatively compact, making it easy to get around on foot.

Couples looking for a peaceful getaway often find Hamnavoe ideal. It provides a quiet base with lovely coastal walks right on your doorstep, such as the path leading to the nearby Muckle Roe. The serene setting allows for relaxed evenings and mornings, with the convenience of a local shop for essentials.

For families, staying in Hamnavoe offers practical advantages. Accommodations here often provide more space, and the village's central location means shorter drives to the island's few points of interest, like the sandy beach at Meal.
When is the best time to go to East Burra?
The best time to visit East Burra is during the summer months, from June to August, when the weather is generally mildest and the days are long.

During this period, you'll experience the famous "simmer dim," where daylight extends late into the evening, sometimes until 11 pm or later. This provides ample opportunity for exploring the island's coastal paths, enjoying outdoor activities like kayaking or fishing, and spotting local wildlife without the chill of other seasons. The average temperature hovers around 13-15°C, making it comfortable for outdoor adventures.

Couples looking for a peaceful escape will find these months ideal. The longer days allow for leisurely walks along the beaches, such as those at Meal Beach or Banna Minn, and enjoying the serene coastal scenery. It's also a good time for boat trips to explore the surrounding smaller islands and their bird colonies.

For travellers interested in local culture and events, the summer also sees various community activities and festivals across the Shetland Islands, including some accessible from East Burra.
