A Comfortable Place to Stay in Foula

ristie

Ristie is a self-catering croft house in the remote island of Foula, offering a comfortable base for anyone looking to experience a different side of Shetland.

Foula is a small, working island community, surrounded by sea and some of Shetland’s most impressive scenery. Life here moves at its own pace, and a stay at Ristie gives you the chance to experience it for yourself.

Whether you’re visiting to explore the island, enjoy the walking and wildlife, or simply spend a few days somewhere quiet and away from the everyday, Ristie is a place to settle in and make yourself at home.

Peace on a Remote Island

Ristie is comfortable, practical and well-equipped with what you need for a self-catering stay.

Ristie offers your own space, peace and quiet and the chance to experience what life on a remote Shetland island is really like.

Come back after a day exploring Foula, put your feet up, make something to eat and enjoy an evening at your own pace.

 

Experience Foula

One of the best things about staying at Ristie is simply where you are.

Foula is known for its dramatic coastline, high sea cliffs, wildlife and open landscape. With a small population and its location 15 miles west of the Shetland Mainland, visiting the island feels genuinely different.

The weather can change, plans sometimes have to be flexible and getting here is part of the experience. That’s the reality of Foula.

Your Own Space

Self-Catering at Ristie

Staying self-catering gives you the freedom to enjoy Foula in your own way.

Ristie has a well-equipped kitchen where you can prepare your own meals, along with comfortable living spaces where you can relax after a day out.

There’s no need to rush. Have breakfast when you want, head out when the weather looks good and come home when you’re ready. Ristie gives you a simple and comfortable base from which to experience the island.

Testimonial

Ristie accommodation is beautifully situated a few steps from Gaada Stack. The house is very cosy and functionally furnished. An absolute highlight is the large window. You can enjoy the view and even sleep there. If you don’t want to cook yourself, Mai is a fantastic cook and even delivers to Ristie. We have never eaten so well and with such variety!
