Shetland in winter has a character all of its own, and staying somewhere that lets you enjoy it in comfort makes the experience even more special. The weather here is famously lively with restless skies, rolling waves, and winds that give the landscape a wild, exhilarating energy. For many visitors, that’s exactly the appeal. Storm‑watching becomes a quiet pleasure, especially when you can enjoy it from somewhere warm and inviting.
At Brekka Lodge, you don’t just witness Shetland’s winter moods, you feel part of them. Windows which frame ever changing views of sea and sky, so you can watch clouds race, colours shift, and waves rise and fall without stepping outside. It’s the kind of scenery that makes you pause, breathe, and simply take it all in.
After a brisk coastal walk or a wander through Lerwick’s streets, returning to Brekka Lodge feels like coming home. The space is designed for unwinding: warm rooms, soft blankets, and the promise of a long, hot shower to chase away the chill. Evenings here have their own rhythm - curl up with a book, make something comforting for dinner, or just sit back and enjoy the weather performing beyond the windows.
For anyone seeking a peaceful winter escape, Brekka Lodge offers the perfect balance of Shetland’s dramatic outdoors and the cosy comfort of a welcoming retreat.
