Cala Sith is a lovely place to stay. All the facilities are well maintained and clean. The owners are friendly and on hand to fix anything or show you how to work things if needed. The only request I’d make is for more mugs as I like to drink a lot of tea! Very quiet and relaxing spot. Thanks for a lovely stay.

The food at the keel pub just down the road is excellent. The trip to lunga and Staffa is well worth doing. We saw baby puffins (pufflings) and dolphins.

Would Recommend: Yes

7th July 2024:

Pat and Julie are both accommodating and welcoming.If there's any queries regarding cottage they are and will be able to assist since they are just few steps away. Cala -Sith is a very nice to stay while on holiday in the isle and its very clean, neat and tidy.The place itself is peaceful especially looking at the amazing nature that surrounds its place.

Cafes, restaurants and wee shops are all accessible. Even the petrol station is just few minutes away if you're driving. Buses and ferrys too are always available with specific time tables. I would always recommend Cala -Sith to stay in this beautiful Isle - Isle of Mull. One of the best cottages we have been whenever we're on holiday. Definitely will come back.

Would Recommend: Yes

28th June 2024:

You were the perfect hosts and made us very welcome. The cottage was extremely comfortable and perfect for our needs.Thank you and hope to be back.

Perfect location for exploring the Ross of Mull and accessing Iona as well as trips to Staffa and Lunga. There are many beautiful walks directly from Cala Sith and during our one week stay we didn't use the car as there was so much to do in the immediate vicinity.

Would Recommend: Yes

16th June 2024:

Lovely cottage with all the facilities one could wish for. Super nice friendly hosts on hand if needed (unlikely!). Quiet location away from the crowds

Five minute walk from super local restaurant and pub and village shop/post office. Ten minute walk from ferry terminal from where frequent crossings all day to Iona and daily trips to Lunga (puffins galore) and to Staffa (Fingals cave) can be had. Local scenic walks are varied with stunning scenery and beautiful beaches. Good bus service to/from Craignure (ferry to/from Oban) for anyone without a car. Lots of wildlife in and out of the water. Being at one end of a large island trips to say Tobermory (the other end) can take two hours or more but the scenery all the way is stunning.

Would Recommend: Yes

16th June 2024:

Excellent location and facilities. Lovely hosts. Abundance of wildlife and so peaceful. Ideal place for a reset after a busy time at work.

Great location near ferry and public footpath. Well supplied accomodation with everything we needed. Patrick and his wife couldn't have been more attentive. We didn't need for anything, but they were available if we did.

Book the local pub The Keel Row. Lovely pub with restaurant, great food. Dog frendly in bar.

Would Recommend: Yes

24th May 2024:

Very good hosts to deal with right from the very start of the booking to the end of our stay

Iona is a must visit. A bit disappointed with the Keel Row restaurant. We had to send back one of our meals which was inedible and felt things could have been handled better. Pub side is very good though.

Would Recommend: Yes

Very clean & tidy little house - all that we needed as a base for a few days in Fionnphort & Iona. Enjoyed it very much.

Keel Row is an excellent pub & restaurant and Iona is a great little island with only a very short ferry crossing from Fionnphort, which is a smashing little village all round.

Would Recommend: Yes

Iona is walking distance from this cottage which was a lovely afternoon out.

21st October 2023:

Would Recommend: Yes

7th October 2023:

Perfect location for the Ross of Mull, Ffionphort is a quiet village and the ferry to Iona is a five-minute walk away. The local walks and beaches, plus Iona, have enough exploring for several days. Lots more great walking within an hour of the village. The cottage is lovely and clean, has a good bath, comfy beds, private parking etc. No issues whatsoever and would definitely stay again.

Wildlife lovers - we saw eagles and a hen harrier from the gorgeous beach at Knockvologan. Eiders and a host of waders on the Iona beaches. The trip to Staffa from Ffionphort was great. Otters - keep trying if you don't see any at first! We found evidence of them at a nearby beach. We saw our first in Loch Scridain near Pennyghael. Lochbuie is lovely, and good for seals. Saw our second otter off the coast at Grass Point. Loch na Keal is stunning and great for eagles if you can stomach the long drive there.

Would Recommend: Yes

Just fabulous!

Just returned from our 4th visit to Mull and Iona and always stay in Fionnphort. Our last 3 visits have been with Julie and Patrick. For us Fionnphort is the best location as it is where you get the ferry to go across to Iona and where you can get picked up for boat trips to Staffa. It also has a great pub (The Keel Row) and you can also get great food from The Creel Seafood Bar and at the Lazy Cow Cafe and Farm shop (on the Kintra road). There is a fine dining restaurant at the Ninth Wave also. There are lots of great walks to Fidden and Knockvologan. For us, it has everything!

Would Recommend: Yes

18th June 2023:

An absolutely first rate self catering property with all facilities. Very friendly hosts. Simply could not wish for anything better

Cala Sith is a wonderful place to stay. Located on the outskirts of the village it is ideally situated for the ferry to Iona and there are a lot of beautiful coastal walks within a few minutes drive. The house is well equipped and spacious. Peace and tranquility surround this property with the exception of the sheep and cattle that roam freely throughout the village! Thank you for a memorable stay.

Would Recommend: Yes

Would Recommend: Yes

17th May 2023:

The owners are very friendly & helpful & have a good knowledge of the area.

It’s a great position to explore the south of Mull & catch the ferry to Iona. The views & wildlife in the local area are amazing. Travel anywhere was often slow because of narrow roads & passing points, sheep & cattle in roads & us stopping to appreciate the beautiful area.

Would Recommend: Yes

16th October 2022:

Quiet, comfortable and well-equipped bungalow. Warm and cosy with good hot shower. Patrick was quick to help out when we were struggling with TV!

We enjoyed Folk music and open mic night in the Keel Row pub down the road. They also served great food. The Creel down by the harbour did very tasty fish and chips. Great to be able to hop over to Iona on a 10-minute ferry ride and get a bonus dolphin sighting. Local beaches all worth exploring. Great base.

Would Recommend: Yes

12th October 2022:

Cala Sith proprietors very helpful and easily contactable if needed. Always very pleasant. Cottage well maintained and all necessary facilities available. Handy off road parking a bonus along with sheep and highland cattle passing gate daily!

Would Recommend: Yes

25th September 2022:

Friendly but unobtrusive.

Great base for exploring Mull. Close walking distance to Iona ferry and for boat trips to Staffa. Local Pub- Keel Row is very handy and serves good meals. It is dog friendly but obviously they can't be in dining room ( although can have meals in bar provided a table is available.

Another fantastic week at Cala-Sith but this time in the two self catering cottages with the family. Owners were great in providing things like a stair gate etc to keep our young children safe.

Excellent position for access to Iona ferry and the great outdoors on the Ross of Mull.

Would Recommend: Yes

18th July 2022:

Comfortable cottage, close to my niece! It had everything we required, and friendly, helpful owners. Sheep to observe, front and back of property, which we loved. Ferry to Iona and Staffa literally down the road, as was pub and shop. Beautiful sunset too. Lovely craft centre close by, with short drive to a gorgeous beach.

Ferry to Iona and Staffa. Lovely drive to Calgary beach and Tobermory. Another pub and shop in Bunessan, and Ardalanish Weavers. Glorious Fidden beach. A good cafe just before Calgary beach. For a special meal, The Ninth Wave, Bruach Mhor, Fionnphort was superb.

Would Recommend: Yes

8th July 2022:

Always a 5 star service from you guys! Always friendly, chatty, helpful and approachable.

We always base ourselves in Fionnphort when on Mull as (in our opinion) it is an ideal location for the short ferry crossing to Iona, trips to Staffa, great walks to Fidden and Knockvologan, great local pub (The Keel Row) and great food at The Creel (shack at the pier).

Would Recommend: Yes

19th June 2022:

Absolutely first class holiday cottage with everything one might need. Comfortable, clean with all Modern facilities and with excellent very friendly and helpful on site hosts. Good quiet location with access to local shop, restaurant/bar, seafood takeaway and ferry to Iona all within 10 minute walk. We simply cannot rate it highly enough

The local restaurant/bar the Keelrow is under new management and is excellent. The Creel seafood takeaway also excellent. Iona is a short ferry trip and well worth exploring from end to end. There is an abundance of wildlife (local Hen Harriers) and incredible coastal scenery to be seen walking from the cottage. A car is useful for longer trips on Mull but we rarely used ours.

Would Recommend: Yes

19th June 2022:

Love this place, wouldn't want to stay anywhere else. Pat and Julie are the perfect hosts, will be back next year.

Regular ferry to Iona, plenty of wildlife to see in Fionnphort, hen harriers, cuckoos, songbirds. Keel Row pub/restaurant serves good food at a reasonable price, and The Creel does great fish and chips.

Would Recommend: Yes

31st May 2022:

Beautiful setting, close to Iona ferry. Good pub just along the road. Helpful hosts. Would stay again.

Take care driving when highland cattle are wandering down the road. They will move slowly out of the way when they are ready.

Julie and Patrick couldn’t have been more helpful and extremely pleasant . We all enjoyed our stay with them at the 2 adjoining self catering cottages . Short walk down to the Iona ferry and creel shack (scallops , fish n chips !) very tasty . Organised our day trip to Staffa and Fingals cave . Highly recommended.

Creel shack for scallops ,fish n chips . Keel row pub good food and excellent fine ales ! Staffa and Fingals cave a must see. Also Columba hotel for coffees and lunches . Lastly check out the beautiful beaches on Iona 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️

Would Recommend: Yes

10th May 2022:

Clean, comfortable, well equipped and warm. Perfect location for trips to Iona and Staffa. Would definitely use Cala Sith again.

Take a trip to Staffa/Fingal’s cave. We waited to book to the day before to ensure good weather . (This may not be always possible) Walk to the beautiful beaches on Iona. Don’t just go right but also to the beach past the golf course. If you fancy a bit longer walk on Iona carry on to Columba’s Bay and further along there is the old marble mine. Be aware that travel is slow on the single track roads so if you want to visit the other end of Mull you may prefer to do a 2 place stay.

Would Recommend: Yes

17th April 2022:

Clean, well equipped and well located self catering cottage. Well heated and good beds Friendly owner.

Beaches at Uisken, Fidden and Kintra lovely. The Isle of Iona and its beaches though are outstanding! Creel Shack at the Fionnphort pier is an absolute must for its fish and chips and the local pub 'The Keel Row' is very cosy and good atmosphere.

Would Recommend: Yes

29th March 2022:

Very well appointed self catering accommodation. Good size rooms. Very comfortable bed and thick duvet. Nice to have a bath and shower. Great access to Iona, which is well worth a visit for at least three hours.

No local restaurants available at the time we stayed. Small shop with limited supplies. Very close to the ferry to reach Iona which is well worth a visit. Plenty of good eating places on the island. Not sure the time of the last ferry as an evening dinner at the Argyle Hotel on the island would be enjoyable.

Would Recommend: Yes

28th November 2021:

Perfect home from home to visit our family.we have stayed numerous times now, both in cottages and B&B and although there are numerous options to stay elsewhere we enjoy the position of Cala Sith. The hosts are very friendly and so helpful with nothing being too much trouble.

If you are looking for somewhere for peace and quiet, this is it! Perfect base for cycling, walking and visiting Iona.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, Patrick and Julie are top class hosts who are welcoming and helpful. Cottage is clean and cosy, and like a home-from-home for us. Perfect location to unwind and de-stress. In fact we can't wait to come back!

We come to Mull predominantly for the wildlife, and to walk the beautiful locations. Saw otters, hen harriers and other wonderful birds during our stay.

Would Recommend: Yes

21st September 2021:

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed staying in your self catering cottage, thank you The cottage has a high standard of fixtures and fittings throughout, particularly the heating controls and flexibility. I was devastated when I splintered the dining table leg but the "chef" was very understanding. Thanks again for a great holiday. Isabel and Roy Mc Shane

Obviously the Ninth Wave is the top restaurant but the Creel Shack offers exceptional locally caught shell fish, crab claws were wonderful Just leave the car and walk round the paths and beaches Don't forget to dine at the Keel Row: great pint langoustine tails!!

Would Recommend: Yes

4th September 2021:

Great location as we travelled all of mull and was amazing to be right next to Isle of Iona. Great kitchen and washing facilities if you’re on a longer trip! Owners were attentive and friendly.

Isle of Iona ferry just walk down the hill- £7.20 for a return for 2 adults and only 4 minute journey. You will not regret visiting here!

If you want a little bit of heaven, this is the place for you. This cottage has everything you need, it is thoughtfully equipped, and very comfy, plus you get a beautiful view and perfect peace and tranquillity. Well placed for easy trips across to Iona,( accompanied by the local dolphins) and with a beach at the end of the road, we had a fab week, just wished we had booked longer.

The new path to Loch Pottie was a great find, we did it a couple of days and watched the local wildlife; Osprey diving in the loch... and enjoyed the spectacular scenery, and we didn't need to touch the car, just strolled out the front door.

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd July 2021:

Really loved our stay thank you! Ideal sized cottage for a family with lovely views out if the living room. Great for us to be within walking distance of family in Fionnphort

Would Recommend: Yes

28th June 2021:

It was very good value whilst providing everything needed to accommodate 2 couples comfortably.

It is brilliant for a trip over to Iona and the local pub the Keel Row was good for food and drinks. Due to the single track roads on the island it does take a long time to get to other parts of the island however.

Would Recommend: Yes

27th June 2021:

This well equipped cottage is super clean and very comfortable. Warm enough or airy when needed. Julie and Patrick are very friendly and go out of the way to ensure that everything is perfect.

Would recommend the local pub and restaurant The Keel Row for food but you will need to book.

Would Recommend: Yes

20th June 2021:

Fantastic holiday accommodation and hosts.

Iona a must visit.

Would Recommend: Yes

14th June 2021:

We stayed in cottage number one for two weeks, the cottage was very clean and comfortable and had everything you could possibly need just like home from home. Julie and Patrick were helpful and always available should we need them. As we were staying during the covid pandemic it was reassuring to know that the cottage had been thoroughly cleaned and well ventilated prior to our stay.

Our cottage was a five minute walk to where you can board a ferry for Iona, the sailing only took around 15 minutes and you were rewarded with a beautiful island with sandy beaches,and plenty of places to eat etc. This area of Mull has lots of areas for walkers ,cyclists , and lovers of water sports to enjoy.

Would Recommend: Yes

7th June 2021:

We had a wonderful stay at Cala Sith. Located just at the edge of Fionnphort, the accommodation is perfectly situated for swimming and family days at the beach, and for time on Iona (with the ferry five mins walk away). The property is spotlessly clean, comfortable, and has everything you'll need for cooking regular meals.

The Staffa Trips boat to visit Fingal's Cave and the puffin colony on Staffa was well worth the money - even though I was sceptical about spending so much on it.

This was our 3rd trip to Fionnphort and our 3rd stay at Cala Sith albeit this time with Patrick. The location is perfect for Iona but also perfect for those who want to be in an amazing wild, remote location brimming with wildlife and who want a cosy refuge after being out exploring all Mull has to offer.

Would Recommend: Yes

21st October 2020:

was a perfect location for our few days away. Ideal for visiting Iona and the south of the island. some great beaches, and a local arts gallery. the accommodation was spacious and felt very much at home for the 3 of us. everything you need, and good wifi.!

covid restrictions were in place , but normally a local pub is open serving food and a highly recommended restaurant - the ninth wave is nearby. must visit fidden beach and uisken.

Would Recommend: Yes

20th September 2020:

Patrick and Julie are very welcoming and nothing is too much trouble.

There are several lovely beaches in the Fionnphort area. There’s a small pub, cafe, shop and The Creel seafood shack at the port - all within easy walking distance. Iona is easily reached by regular ferry service where there are further beaches, craft shops, eateries and, of course, the abbey. Please bear in mind our visit was during Covid restrictions and some venues were not open.

30th August 2020:

One of the nicest holiday accommodations that we've ever stayed in. Quality fittings and immaculately maintained throughout. Lovely views from the lounge and a short walk to the harbour/Iona ferry and a quiet location make it the perfect choice in Fionnphort. Lovely helpful hosts too. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Due to the covid situation some things were closed during our visit but we can recommend the seafood shack near the harbour and a ferry trip to Iona. Tobermory is a nice day out with a drive to Calgary beach included. Don't be in a rush due to the nature of the single track roads and the spectacular views on the scenic route. Some other nice beaches local to Fionnphort too after a short drive. Big shop in Oban before you get the ferry.

Would Recommend: Yes

15th August 2020:

Great location very close to the Fionnphort ferry terminal. Comfortable and well furnished cottage with precautions taken for Covid 19.

Would Recommend: Yes

14th August 2020:

We had a really lovely stay at Cala Sith. The cottage was pristine and everything really easy to get our head around. The location is incredible, and we appreciated being able to catch the Iona ferry on foot.

Don't miss the amazing veggie at Kintra Croft Kitchen. Bread is easiest to come by at the ferry shop after 1pm. We love the Creel and the one time we visited the Ninth Waves left us incredible memories.The beaches on the Ross and Iona are amazing - Ardalanish and Knockvologan especially, also Fidden and Scoor, and on Iona, the Bay at the Back of the Ocean, Port Ban and North End. We saw an otter, seals and hen harriers. No eagles this year. We found doors and gates open at the Abbey (except the museum), though it's officially closed during Covid - an amazing surprise.

Obviously visit Iona, we didn’t get to Staffs as weather bad. But sure it’s worth it.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd August 2019:

We received a warm welcome and help was there when we needed it. Cala Sith was a beautiful place to stay with so many beautiful places to visit. We hope to return in the future.

Our trip to Staffa was wonderful - we missed the puffins but saw dolphins and seals, and Staffa is a beautiful place. Amazing beaches on Iona and a lovely evening stroll to Fidden. Very yummy meal at the Keel Row and great fish and chips by the quayside. I think it's worth knowing that the Spar on Iona is better stocked than the Ferry Shop (which has what you need most of the time).

Would Recommend: Yes

24th June 2019:

Enjoyed stay although weather mixed but used to that. House fine, and poarking good. Iona beautiful, Duart Castle enjoyed. Tobermory busy as usual. West coast road -you have to be careful, but such spectacular scenery. We will have to come again!

Keel Row makes a good meal, but watch for queueing system. Argyll Arms at Bunessan freshest scampi around.

Great way to Mull via Corran and Lochline ferries to Fishnich. Just queue up and pay on board. Good trip to Staffa with Staffs Tours and recommend booking online as very easy to do. If going to Tobermory and upper Mull suggest booking another venue to save long drive around the island. Calagy Bay was beautiful . Roads only have passing places so slower life style so good to chill out .

Would Recommend: Yes

Couldn't have been more helpful or kind.

Ninth Wave restaurant, Iona, Lunga Island to see the puffins in June ( beware the sandwich stealing rabbit), kintra bay and Knockvologan, the weavers.

Would Recommend: Yes

Cathy and Mike made us feel most welcome and made every effort to make our stay with them comfortable. Mike also gave us local information which was a great help.

Trip to Treshnish Isles and Staffa is a must to see Fingals Cave and the puffins. The Keel Row in the village provides lovely food and has a good take away service. Staff very helpful and friendly. Many beautiful beaches around but Fidden is stunning.

Would Recommend: Yes

Would Recommend: Yes

We loved the hospitality, the enthousiasm, the surroundings and the experience! And the Laphroaig Brodir - and the conversations that came with that. Hope to be able to re-visit in the future!

Bring your hiking shoes and clean pants: the grounds can be quite muddy - especially if you're walking on unclear paths ;-) The Keel Row has good food and drinks and great service as well. Visit Staffa, Iona, climb Ben More if it's clear weather, walk to Erraid at low tide, etc: too much to see and too much to do!

Would Recommend: Yes

wonderful hosts- nothing too much bother.4s given for minor points. I was very happy with the quality of the accommodation and would certainly book again

Kilvickeon beach beautiful especially at low tide . Look out for sea eagle on small nearby loch. The FIT could walk from Uisken to Kilvickeon - up to the 'last look back' cairn then a little inland or up and down the other beautiful beaches.

Would Recommend: Yes

The cottage was very clean and comfortable. The hosts were so welcoming, offering to book various activities for us and generally being helpful. Our stay was made so much better through the friendliness of the hosts. We would definitely return if possible.

We really enjoyed the eagle watch at the local RSBP reserve, the trip to Iona, and the day at Tobermory. We saw so much wildlife including lots of birds of prey, some from our window in the cottage.

Would Recommend: Yes

Friendly and welcoming. Stayed with 2 small children and they provided buckets and spades and beach towels which was much appreciated as we travelled by public transport - which went very smoothly.

Local pub Keel Row was very good - had evening meal on Friday with children. Also good food In St Columba's hotel and Argyll on Iona. Hired electric bike from electric bikes on mull. Good service.

Would Recommend: Yes

A lovely holiday cottage in a great spot for us to visit Iona, we found everything very well cared for although the toilet flush probably needs replacing and we would have loved a larger bed. The people next door did not bother us as the house is well insulated. The hot water was plentiful, the tv a good reception, it was good to get internet in the main lounge when we needed it. We would and will definitely return at some point. We went frequently to the island and also visited ninth wave - excellent. Overall delightful.

We got fresh fish to bring home and cook from the hut by the ferry. We thought Ninth Wave very good. We enjoyed the bakery at Bunnessan saw sea otters at Pennyghael felt we were best served by the 8:30 ferry as it was a much easier journey to Craignure We often lunched at St Columba on Iona - nice soup, also the Heritage cafe was very good. It would be useful to have details of Iona activities e.g. the pilgrim walk tuesday, eucharist on wednesday I know not all people will be interested but I think many will.

Would Recommend: Yes

Great accommodation in a brilliant location,the staff were super friendly & helped make our stay a pleasure.

Go on the boat trip to the treshnish Islands,the puffins are great,you get really close to them. The keel Row pub has good food but don't do bookings,its first come first served when the restruant opens at 6 pm Go over to Iona & visit the Abbey The beach at the local Fidden farm campsite is beautiful.

Would Recommend: Yes

Very friendly and enjoyable stay. Will definitely stay at Cala Sith again. Location great for exploring south of the island. Thanks for a lovely holiday.

Great to be able to just walk down the road to catch ferry to Iona. Lovely walks on Iona, Knockvologan, Uisken, Ardalanish to name but a few. Didn't go out to Staffa this time but recommend a trip on Iolaire of Iona with Davey Kirkpatrick - worth the money and he will pass on all his knowledge of the area; wonderful.

Would Recommend: Yes

We received a warm welcome on arrival and were then shown round the cottage. Everything worked well: the rooms are a very good size and nicely appointed. This was excellent value. We will most certainly be back.

It's rather difficult to know where to start. The Ninth Wave restaurant is almost literally on your doorstep: it is an unmissable dining experience. We visited Staffa on a beautiful clear blue day - Magic! Iona was peaceful. A circuit of the Island to Tobermory was tremendous fun. We saw deer, harriers, puffins, herons> The next visit is already being planned.

Would Recommend: Yes
