South Nesting is a small, community-run caravan and camping site in Shetland, Scotland, with eight hook-up points for caravans and space for tents. On site you'll find a shower, toilet and baby changing facility, WiFi, and a chemical waste disposal unit, with the park set on a slight gradient. Run purely on a voluntary basis, it's a simple, no-frills base for exploring Nesting, where you'll find a well-stocked general store, a primary school worth a wander round, the Galley shed where the Up Helly Aa galley is built, and the Nesting History Group's exhibits. Further afield, Shetland's museums are within easy reach, including The Cabin Museum, the Shetland Textile Museum, and the Shetland Museum and Archives.
