Jarlshof

23/09/2014 – After a lovely morning on St Ninian’s Isle we made our way south to Jarlshof. I hadn’t been that excited about it beforehand but within a few minutes of being there Jarlshof soon worked a little magic on us. The site has so much history it’s hard to get your head round whilst there. The timeline is amazing of all the buildings for such a relatively small site. The audio guide is great and very helpful. Being allowed to enter the buildings and walk round was a big bonus. If anything on Shetland is a must visit, for me this is it. I was so excited by the end I flipped into proper tourist mode and bought a Jarlshof tea towel in the gift shop on the way out.
