About Caldback

Caldback occupies Unst, Britain's northernmost inhabited island in Shetland. Getting there means ferries from mainland Scotland to Lerwick, then island-hopping via Yell with your car. The journey's lengthy but rewards with dramatic moorland and coastal scenery. Approximately 4 EV charging points serve the area, vital given the isolation. Caldback sits near Hermaness Nature Reserve, where massive gannet colonies nest on spectacular clifftops each breeding season.
