Mull has
a great variety of scenery and wonderful sandy beaches. There are two
9-hole golf courses, wildlife tours, geological tours and pony trekking.
There are opportunities for loch, river and sea fishing and there are
boat trips to Staffa and the Treshnish Islands to see seals, puffins and
many other seabirds, plus the occasional whale. Other sea trips
are available to see whales and dolphins, basking sharks and other
marine mammals.
Interesting
places to visit include Iona, with its historic abbey, Staffa with
Fingals Cave and basaltic columns, Duart Castle - home of Clan Maclean,
Torosay Castle with its garden statuary, plus a narrow - gauge railway
to/from Craignure, the
Isle of Ulva and the Mull Little Theatre.
Tobermory
is the main town with numerous shops and facilities, including a museum,
a distillery and a chocolate factory. We are 15 miles equally distant
from Bunessan to the south and Salen to the north, both of which have
shops and post offices. There is a friendly small pub six miles away
with a well-stocked shop beside it. |
