Motorhome Stopovers in Shetland Islands

Shetland is the UK's most northerly point — Muckle Flugga lighthouse, north of Unst, is further north than Bergen in Norway. Jarlshof archaeological site near Sumburgh Head preserves overlapping settlements from the Bronze Age through Viking Age to early modern period, one of the most remarkable multi-period sites in Europe. Shetland ponies are native and still common on the moorland, the Up Helly Aa fire festival in January is Europe's largest fire festival, and the 1,400 miles of coastline means you are never more than three miles from the sea.

Why Choose Motorhome Pub Stopovers in Shetland Islands

Convenient overnight stops:
Motorhome pub stopovers in Shetland Islands can provide a convenient alternative to a traditional campsite, often combining overnight parking with food, drinks and local hospitality. Many pub stopovers have no separate overnight parking charge, although venues may expect visitors to eat or drink at the pub. Always check the individual listing and contact the venue before travelling.

Facilities:
Facilities vary from venue to venue. Some motorhome pub stopovers may offer water, waste disposal, toilets or other useful facilities, while others simply provide somewhere suitable to park overnight. Check each listing for the latest information and facilities available.

The pub stopover experience:
Staying at a pub can be a useful way to break up a journey while enjoying local food, drinks and hospitality. Pub stopovers can also give motorhome and campervan travellers an opportunity to visit smaller towns and villages away from traditional campsites.

Check before travelling:
Opening hours, parking arrangements, facilities and overnight-stay policies can change. We recommend checking the listing, reading recent member reviews and contacting the venue before setting off.
