IN ABOOT DA NIGHT with ISLAND TRAILS
Join legendary Shetland story teller Elma Johnson in her Bigton home for a delicious, traditional Shetland meal, overlooking the beautiful St Ninian's Isle, pristine tombola beach and rolling sea, with the distant island of Foula on the horizon. Fabulous food, fiddle music and absorbing tales will transport you into the myriad myths and lives of early settlers, Vikings, feuding families and mischievous trowies - Shetland's "little people". On the menu are heather and seaweed - fed lamb (much prized of late in top Turin restaurants), locally grown potatoes and vegetables - followed by the most heavenly ice cream and rhubarb. Shetland's warmest hospitality, storytelling, fiddle music and natural wonders combined to make 'In aboot da night' a memorable experience.
