What a fabulous holiday! A once in a lifetime experience! Such an authentic historical Victorian Farmhouse with a 1950’s kitchen using genuine Fea family items. So brilliant to stay in a museum with beautiful views out to sea and live the history while being able to explore and handle the items. In the evenings it was fascinating to read the historical books and go back in time! However although living immersed in the past you will be glad to know the bathroom is super modern with a stunning huge bath and even a sauna! Also truly dog friendly as Jackie and Dave made my large black Labrador very welcome. Absolutely a holiday you will always remember!

Sanday is a beautiful island with stunning white beaches, amazing wildlife and extremely friendly and welcoming locals! Do visit the heritage centre at Lady to learn about the incredible history as well as shipwreck stories. The craft hub and cafe at Kettletoft is not to be missed with delicious home made soups and top quality sourdough bread! Extremely dog friendly too!
