Reasons to Stay on the Isle of Mull
Walking
Walking on The Isle of Mull varies from short strolls along remote white sandy beaches to mountain climbing and exploring caves. If the scenery doesn't make your jaw drop, then the plethora of birds, seals, and sea life will. Ben More is the highest peak in the Inner Hebrides, and the view from the top is truly breathtaking. Another great walk is to explore MacKinnon's Cave. Filled with fascinating myths and history, this cave is worth exploring. With many walks and much to explore on the island, you'll want a cosy cottage to return to after a day's adventure with your family or friends. You can even rent a cottage with a hot tub to relax those muscles. With every cottage, you'll always get the best deal available with our price guarantee.
Wildlife
From puffins and seals to dolphins, whales and basking sharks, there is a host of wildlife on the coast and nearby neighbouring islands. The best way to see the coastal wildlife is to join a wildlife boat tour. This is an excellent activity for the whole family, just don't forget your camera! You can also see impressive wildlife inland on The Isle of Mull, such as red deer, otters, and golden eagles. Tours are the best way to see these incredible animals at a safe distance in their natural habitat.
