Welcome to Muckle Roe Chapel

…A stunning home from home, located on the beautiful island of Muckle Roe in the Shetland Islands – the perfect getaway.

Originally a place of worship built for the local community in 1911, the Chapel was renovated and extended to a very high standard in 2014, creating the ideal rural retreat with a stunning seaside view. The Chapel won the 2016 Saltire Society Design Award in the Renovations and Extensions category.

The Chapel has a spacious open plan living area with large windows exploiting the wonderful views and a wood burning stove for added comfort.  The three bedrooms are well furnished, providing spacious holiday accommodation for up to seven people.

The enclosed garden with wooden decking is a fantastic spot for watching the rich wildlife – seals, orcas, porpoises, birds and, if you’re lucky, an otter.

Muckle Roe is an ideal base for exploring Shetland, 30 miles from Lerwick, offering the tranquility of a rural location with incredible views and stunning walks, while being close to amenities and good road and ferry links for exploring the rest of the islands.
