Hotel Review
Isle of Mull Hotel & Spa, Scotland
Sitting on the east coast of the Isle of Mull, right next door to the Craignure ferry terminal, the location of this hotel can't get any better. The largest and most luxurious property on the island, it's an excellent bet for couples seeking a romantic weekend away with gorgeous views, or families who want to be by the sea. After an excellent renovation in 2021, the hotel has some seriously smart rooms, a restaurant that champions local produce and a fantastic spa for downtime and indulgent treatments. The lawns outside the hotel are a lovely place to walk, but the real highlight is the small beach at the end of the wooden boardwalks. Head down there at low tide with a glass of something from the bar and watch the light change in the sky at the end of the day - it's pure bliss.
THE DETAILS

We loved our morning walks with the dog along the wooden boardwalks and through the sculpture trail that leads down to a rocky, white-sand beach.
