The Crofthouse Museum takes visitors back to a time where life’s essentials were of a bare minimum. The House, barn and byre are all accessible under one roof and everything, from the floors to the kitchen appliances, is made with materials found and collected. 

Located in a delightful setting, this typical thatched crofthouse has been restored to how it would have looked in the 1870s. Smell the peat fire, discover the box beds and try to set the traditional Shetland mouse trap. The crofthouse also has a lovely garden with a path which leads to a restored watermill.

Yell is the stepping stone island to Unst and Fetlar and is also home of the Old Haa Museum. Here, the history of the island, including the whaling years and shipwrecks are summarised along with natural history, genealogy and a picture and sound archive.

However, there is much more to the Old Haa than a museum - it is a building the community identifies with. The Old Haa has a tearoom with freshly made homebakes, a gallery, with regular displays of local art and a craft shop with locally crafted souvenirs, knitwear and commercial recordings produced in the Old Haa.
