Welcome to HOLIDAY West Highland - Discover the West Highlands

Mull & Iona - so much to offer

Author Holiday West Highland |

TO VISIT Mull and Iona is to have, literally, a true taste of the West Highlands. With Iona being almost a stone’s throw from the foot of Mull the two islands are inextricably linked. A visit to both will give you a detailed insight into early Celtic Christianity and local history and culture. Mull particularly is well-known for its local produce, including cheese, and its wildlife holidays.

Children will love Mull for it is here that the television series Balamory was set - at Tobermory.

The ferry trip from Oban to Craignure, near Tobermory, doesn’t take long. They’’ll be thrilled to be in Balamory with its gaily-coloured houses. Tobermory also has plenty of bars, restaurants, cafe’s and hotels offering superb locally grown food. Any idea of dieting will go out of the window when you see the mouth-watering foods you can taste or buy. Mull and Iona are a foodie’s paradise and calorie counting will simply be a ‘waist’ of time.
