The road is a single-track road with passing places. After about 4 miles you will come to signs for the settlement of Houbie. Keep going - you will pass the shop / post office (Fetlar General Merchant) on your right and Fetlar Interpretive Centre on your left. Keep going and you will rise up a hill there s a blue-roofed building at the top of the hill which is the community hall. Keep going, and about half a mile after the community hall you will pass a large metal-framed barn on your right. Shortly after that, the road makes a slight chicane to the left slow down here and as you are passing out of the chicane you will find yourself at the top of a hill (this is Aith) and with a hard gravel track on your left. Turn into this track and Gibb House is a few hundred meters straight ahead of you along the track.
