Cill-Mhoire Lodges

11th November 2024:

Jo & Tom are the kindest, most helpful hosts. We love the self-contained, purpose designed accommodation, more than adequately equipped for self-catering, with lots of thoughtful touches. Sycamore Lodge & Rowan Lodge have a very well designed living area built into the clear-span roof-space at 1st floor level, with expansive views over Dervaig.

For wildlife enthusiasts the Isle of Mull is the best Scottish location we know, having made repeated visits in the last 8 years. When at Cill-Mhoire we always check out the local loch, which can offer sightings of Otter, White-tailed Eagle, Golden Eagle, Hen Harrier & an abundance of Water-fowl & seabird species. Loch na Keal is probably the most reliable Mull location for Otter & White-tailed Eagle sightings. Wildlife cruises from Ulva Ferry can be extraordinarily productive - we have seen Minke Whales, Harbour Porpoise & 100's of Common Dolphins.

Would Recommend: Yes

Brilliant location, brilliant owners, brilliant lodge and absolutely stunning island. What more can we say. The lodge was spotless and had everything even a slow cooker. Very friendly owners always willing to chat but never in your face. The location on the hill road to Tobermory was spectacular.

Dervaig shop so good for supplies and really friendly. Also liked the Spar in Salen. The Tobermory Stores do a great hot sandwich, and Browns in Tobermory not to be missed. Beaches at Uisken ,Calgary and the hidden town beach near Torloisk were beautiful. Fantastic wildlife watching for White tailed sea eagles and otters on the road around loch na keal too.

Would Recommend: Yes

Lovely stay as ever. We do struggle with getting the TV up and running via the Freesat though. Used the streaming of BBC though via the Starlink though and that was fine.

1st October 2024:

We were met with a lovely welcome from Jo and told if we needed anything not to hesitate to come and ask. We were then left to enjoy and relax in the peace and beautiful surroundings.

The village shop was very convenient and we found everything that we needed there. Would also recommend The Bellachhroy Inn just down the road. We had a great meal in the bar and Freyja my dog was very welcome!

Would Recommend: Yes

Thank you so much for arranging our two chalet holiday Both chalets were just perfect !! All the extra’s were very much appreciated Teddy our JR really enjoyed the special treats and being able to sniff out the rabbits in the garden We are looking forward to our next visit.

Having breakfast on the quay in Tobermory was very special The food was delicious and the view of the harbour is stunning

Lovely people and a lovely place to stay. Been back at least 7 times, so must be good... in fact great!

Would Recommend: Yes

16th September 2024:

Everything we needed and more available for us in the lodge. Walking books and maps too, which were really useful. Also local knowledge and a friendly chat. Thank you so much.

Am Birlinn was recommended to us and food was delicious and locally sourced. We also loved Croft 3 with views of Ulva - again locally sourced. Took a drive down the Ross and spent a day on Iona - which was beautiful. Pony trekking with a beach ride - even in the rain it was spectacular and the ponies were gorgeous.

Would Recommend: Yes

14th September 2024:

This was our 2nd time staying here and we will definitely come again. The Lodges are very well equipped and clean. The only downside is the lack of drying facilities; as there are no tumble dryers in the lodges, it would be good if there was a central drying room for walking gear.

Would Recommend: Yes

10th September 2024:

Super friendly and helpful hosts. The lodge is fantastically well equipped, clean and comfortable. Set up so well for 4 legged friend too with lovely enclosed garden to walk round. Our second visit and feels like home almost immediately. Information book filled with everything you will need to know about the area.

Just read the book. Everywhere we went or ate more than lived up to expectations. Iona is a must and the fish and chips at the ferry are amazing. No negative comments for anywhere we visited.

Would Recommend: Yes

10th September 2024:

Lovely well equipped lodges near Dervaig only a short drive from Tobermory Hosts friendly and welcoming and would stop for a chat if you were outside but otherwise left us in private Lodges well equipped and roomy plenty of books and maps for exploring and games for wet days Lodges are set in lovely grounds well kept but wilder areas blend it seamlessly into the surrounding countryside An ideal base on Mull and lovely to come back to after a day out to sit on the veranda with a drink watching the sun go down

Plenty of lovely places to eat especially for seafood lovers Plenty of places to stop and have picnics and take in the views and the wildlife So many lovely beaches some are more of a trek to so if you have paddle boards/canoes I would recommend Calgary Bay as not to far to carry things from the car park. On really sunny days get there early as car park fills up quick. Careful when driving only use passing places to pass other cars as the drop offs on the road edges are deep in places and could easily damage tyres/wheels and make way when you can for locals/work’s vehicles as they can’t always afford to dawdle along admiring the scenery

Would Recommend: Yes

9th September 2024:

A brilliant place to stay. Our only regret is that we weren't staying longer! So much to do on Mull, and this is brilliantly situated to explore the north of the island. The cabin was really great - had everything that we needed. Getting a cot into the second bedroom was a bit tricky with not being able to move the beds, but we managed. The only (tiny!) complaint was the slight lack of power in the shower - but that's being quite picky! But otherwise, totally perfect. Tom was so helpful and offered great advice on where to go / what to do. The info booklet - sent in advance - is really comprehensive and useful. A brilliant place to stay.

Definitely go to the French-run bakery in Dervaig to get seafood sandwiches. The best we've ever eaten! Port na Ba beach was absolutely stunning and not a soul on it. Going across to Staffa (and I would think the other islands too) from Ulva was also brilliant on a sunny day. Would recommend lunch (the soup in particular) at the Cheese Farm on the road to Tobermory.

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd September 2024:

The Lodge was perfect for pur family reunion. Wonderful location and the Lodge had everything that we needed. It was exceptionally comfortable and well equipped. We are already planning our next visit!

We would definitely recommend a meal at The Bellachroy, the fabulous bakery in Dervaig and a wee trip to the Glass Barn where we had the best toasties ever.

13th August 2024:

What a wonderful place! Easy to find, and so well set up! The owners are fabulous and everything in the property was of really good quality and well thought out. Everything was really clean and the beds are super comfy. They’ve put together an extremely useful and informative guide, with lots of tips on where to go & what to do. And they had excellent recommendations themselves. We loved it, thank you!

The location might not seem ideal, but it’s actually great as it’s between Tobermory and Calgary beach, and then just minutes from Dervaig Village which has a well stocked shop (likely better then the coop in Tobermory with more local produce), the oldest pub on Mull (great food and atmosphere & caters to kids), and a lovely place that does lobster and crab rolls. There’s also a few great restaurants nearby (Am Berlinn, An Tobar (not for kids), and the pub as mentioned). Will definitely come back one day! The property doesn’t have a dishwasher but we didn’t mind. There’s a laundry machine and Jo even supplied washing up liquid (plus some coffee and other bits). And there’s a few puzzles and bits for kids which was a nice touch. Would highly recommend!

Jo and Tom have a little slice of paradise on Mull. Beautiful location, spotlessly clean and comfortable and everything you could possibly need for a break away from it all. Dervaig is a lovely village with a great pub and shop and not too far to get to Tobermory for a choice of cafes and shops. Beautiful Calgary beach also a short drive. Jo and Tom were very welcoming and nearby if needed but the lodges are quite private which we enjoyed. Dog friendly too which is a huge bonus. Such a quiet spot and amazing views. Medicine for the soul! Would highly recommend and will definitely be back. This is a very special place on a very special island.

The Bellachroy Inn is walking distance for a pint in the evening. We didn’t eat there but it looked popular so book if you want to have dinner one night. Get to the Iona ferry before 10 to miss the buses (Jo’s very helpful tip). Don’t freak out at the single track roads, you quickly get used to them. Tobermory Stores is a little gem with fresh pasties and lots of deli type treats. You’ll be going nowhere in a hurry so breathe in the clean air and relax…

Would Recommend: Yes

8th August 2024:

We had an amazing week. It was the perfect place to explore Mull and even saw an eagle going overhead. Our boys enjoyed exploring the grounds, playing Frisbee, ball or following the paths. Our hosts provided excellent advice and local information. Thank you!

If you are planning any trips, talk to the hosts beforehand to get the best information. This was really useful especially when going to Iona and also local eateries.

Would Recommend: Yes

6th August 2024:

Cill-Mhoire has a peaceful location yet it's easy to find. I stayed at Rowan and just loved it. The upstairs sitting area is filled with light and offers some views as well. The kitchen is well stocked. The front porch is wonderful for sitting out (when the Scottish weather allows) with a drink and to watch the world go by. Jo and Tom are so welcoming, kind and helpful. I highly recommend and can't wait to go back!

Definitely eat at ar bord (our table). And be sure to visit Port na Ba, one of the more hidden beaches in this part of Mull. A trip to Iona is a good idea if you have multiple days on Mull. Also, Tobermory Distillery is great for those who want to try some whisky or gin.

Would Recommend: Yes

Lovely stay here, we loved the extra touches such as milk and biscuits, hotwater bottle and extra blanket, nice soap, board games and books. The information pack was very handy and nice to have it sent ahead via email too. Jo and Tom were very friendly and helpful.

Would Recommend: Yes

18th July 2024:

Our 2nd stay and we’ll definitely be back for our 3rd. Accommodation has everything and more that you could possibly wish for, set in a perfect location. Jo & Tom are the perfect hosts, so friendly & helpful. Plus the most amazing sunsets we have ever witnessed!

We love Calgary bay, a short drive from the accommodation. Also a trip over to Ulva. A visit to Isle of Mull cheese and a boat trip on Sea Life Mull is a ‘must do’ too!

Would Recommend: Yes

16th July 2024:

Everything about our holiday was 5 star, the location is stunning, the accommodation faultless, the views awesome with 2 amazing hosts. Thank you Jo and Tom

Cafe Fish in Tobermory is definitely worth a visit and The Boathouse on Ulva do amazing lunches

Would Recommend: Yes

9th July 2024:

Once again a perfect stay ,absolutely spotless on arrival, every single thing you could need is catered for within beech Lodge,absolutely glorious situation with stunning views, Tom and jo are there if you need them but invisible so it's not like there watching you in their home,a very balance I would think but they do it well.massive credit to them for their lodges.

Just come and sink into a slower pace of life,the bellachory hotel does really good food and 🍺, iona is a must,I did staffa tour which was well worth the £40 a skull, so beautiful it truly was a shame when we had to turn fo home.

Would Recommend: Yes

6th July 2024:

Willow Lodge was very comfortable, a real home from home. We were greeted with a friendly welcome from our host on arrival. Lodge has everything you could possibly need for your stay, from well equipped kitchen and a welcome pack of teas,coffee's, hot chocolate and the most delicious biscuits made on Mull of course.Even sandwich bags for our packed lunch which was a great help!! Beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed the domino's and board games since our week was rather wet, although that didn't stop us from exploring the area and enjoying our time away. Picnic bench on a rained decking area to be enjoyed when it's dry and a nice table and chairs covered in the porch for taking in the view.

We thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Mull and having the time to explore, we were sad to leave. Island life might be the way for us at some point. If you enjoy wildlife, exploring and local food Mull is the place for you to try. The Lodge is located just outside the town of Dervaig which is an ideal base for exploring. We covered a few miles on the single track roads, which have plenty passing places and all motorists are very respectful. The highlight of our trip was a trip to Lunga and Staffa from Ulva ferry. Out for the full day and get the opportunity to be very close to the puffins, razorbills, gannets to name only a few. Took a trip to Duart Castle, the view from the battlement was spectacular, all the way to Ben Nevis if your lucky!! Tobermory is the main town which is 7 miles from the Lodge and has many gift shops, places for eating especially fresh sea food and a ferry port to other islands. Hebridean Princess was docked while we were there. Isle of Mull cheese located just outside Tobermory is a must to visit and they also have the most beautiful and unusual glass coffee shop.For even more wildlife a visit to Loch Na Keal is magical if you catch a glimpse of the majestic white tailed eagles. We stayed 4 nights and packed lots in and not to forget the beautiful beaches. Calgary was stunning 😍 we will definitely return in the future for sure..

We thought that the owners, Jo and Tom, were very welcoming and knowledgeable about the island and extremely helpful.

We only used 1 local restaurant Ar Barn, which we found disappointing, but there were many local cafes offering snacks which we found very pleasant. The weather prevented us doing many sea trips, but we did manage to visit Iona, which is remarkable, and definitely worth a visit.

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd July 2024:

This was a last-minute booking, our 4th visit to these lodges. Now, owned by Tom & Jo, you are always greeted with a warm welcome and they are there to help in many ways. Their generosity of basics and treats left for you and your dog's arrival is beyond any other accommodation provider. Thank you to you both.

We thoroughly enjoyed a walk to Ar-bord restaurant on our first night, not sure why it has taken us so long to discover this delightful venue. A must was our 2nd night out to the busy Cafe Fish on the pier at Tobermory and our 3rd night meal out was a visit to Am Birlinn, on route to Calgary beach. Whatever the weather brings Mull continues to hold its' Magic.

Would Recommend: Yes

29th June 2024:

Jo was a very welcoming and friendly host. The lodge was cosy and comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped which was great, lots of nice touches (welcoming pack of teas and coffees…and local biscuits were much appreciated). The garden was well maintained and fun to run around with a toddler…the path access down the bottom was a nice route to the village.

Dervaig was a great location to explore from, the village store was well stocked and had everything we needed. The pub had a great atmosphere and the food was brilliant. We ate at Am Berlinn and had a very nice meal. Heritage centre was a great place to spend a wet morning.

We loved our stay with you. What a peaceful location & the lodge had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. I also really loved your comphrensive guide about the accomodation and all the local tips. It was great that you sent that via email in advance so we could fully prepare for our time with you. However, we do have a few bits of feedback. We would have appreciated a stair gate at the bottom of the stairs, in additon to the one at the top. In the information that you had on your website, it suggested that the upatairs was suitable for a child to sleep. However the velux blinds let so much light in. Our daughter did not sleep well during our time. It would be great if it could be made darker upstairs.

We loved the black sea beach that you recomended in your local guide. And the cheese farm was fantastic.

Would Recommend: Yes

Splendid accommodation. Everything we could need for a family holiday on Mull.

Great location for exploring the northern half of Mull. Tobermory, Calgary Bay and Ulva Ferry all within half hour drive.

Would Recommend: Yes

12th June 2024:

Cill-Mhoire Lodges was well located for enjoying our time on Mull. Our lodge perfectly suited our needs, and they were so thoughtful in providing dog treats and pickup bags. Also appreciated that they had covers we could put on the couches as our pup is used to sitting next to us. The shower warmed up quickly, the beds were comfortable and the hosts were very helpful.. We had a tyre that was leaking air and they loaned us a gauge and pump, as well as pointed us to someone who could help with repairs. Will definitely recommend to friends planning to visit Mull.

We enjoyed dinner at Am Birlinn and Mishnesh, as well as a yummy breakfast at the cafe in Calgary. We also really liked The Piece Box in Divarig for breakfast. There is a wonderful art walk and gallery you can also visit.

Our second trip to your lovely Lodges - and you have already have Sycamore Lodge provisionally held for us for 7 nights from Fri 18-Oct. We hope to finalise this booking with you tomorrow. Thanks again for your excellent accommodation and service.

If you are interested in wildlife, Dervaig is one of the very best locations on Mull (& therefore in the whole of Scotland). A 30 minute scan of Loch a Chumhainn from the very convenient parking spot off the main road will often yield 25 bird species including soaring White-tailed Eagles, plus regular Otter sightings.

Cill-Mhoire was one of the best properties we have stayed in. The accommodation was spotlessly clean, modern and had thought of everything to make our stay comfortable e.g a good selection of kitchen resources, eco friendly cleaning products, hand soaps and creams, treats and poo bags for the dog and picnic containers, storage bag clips etc etc. There was good storage for muddy shoes and coats in the porch area and the living area was bright and comfortable with lovely views over the countryside. The information pack in the lodge was comprehensive and well organised.

The lodge is within a half hour drive from Tobermory and the local village has an excellent shop, pub (The `Bellachroy) and pop up takeaway (occasional).

Would Recommend: Yes

28th April 2024:

We had another great week in Willow Lodge. Great hosts, very clean lodge and great location.. The welcome pack was ideal. The views are fabulous and the wildlife is on the doorstep! We will definitely be back!

The Bellachroy is very good and the new Glenforsa cafe is well worth a visit. Calgary Bay is also amazing!

Would Recommend: Yes

27th April 2024:

Tom and Jo are brilliant hosts always happy to chat and give advice if asked. We loved the lodge we stayed in, wonderfully comfortable and great views from the windows.

Jo and Tom provided so much accurate information of places to visit, for walking , boat trips, for shopping, eating out, galleries and cafes. Information that was sent out to us when booking with them and could also be found in the lodge. We liked the location very much, a 10 minute walk to the local shop and village pub. Surrounded by beautiful scenery. We had a wonderful holiday there.

Would Recommend: Yes

27th April 2024:

What an amazing place. The lodge has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Nothing was too much trouble for Jo. Fabulous scenery and local walks around the lodge. No children in our party but could imagine it would be a fantastic place for a family holiday. Looking forward to coming back again.

Am Birlinn fantastic but no dogs inside. Local pub dog friendly and reasonable food at realistic prices would go to both again.

Jo & Tom are the perfect hosts and the accommodation reflects their personal commitment to providing excellence. Unique comfortable and well equipped set in a stunning location. We keep returning !

Fabulous fully equipped comfy cosy lodges, dog friendly and ideally situated for a chill-out break or for exploring the beautiful Isle of Mull. Jo and Tom are helpful, friendly hosts who help you make the most of your stay! Have visited previously and would definitely recommend:-)

Lodge was beautiful, the owners Tom and Jo have thought of everything and are really friendly and helpful. Particularly impressed by their info guide which was the best we have seen in the many places we have stayed. Highly recommended.

Mull is stunning, its all worth exploring. This time we got to the west coast and the views were glorious. Incredible wildlife everywhere, we even saw eagles from the living room window. Food wise cafe at Calgary is great and we were very impressed by the Cheese Farm and their whole ethos. If you are lucky enough to be there when the Spicy Sprout indian takeaway van is around the food is tremendous.

Would Recommend: Yes

3rd October 2023:

What a exquisite place,beautiful location and vista,the lodge lacks nothing, if its not here you don't need it,very well thought out by Jo &Tom to give us the relaxation and comfort making our stay perfection. Very easy to see they care about guests comfort which in return let's you chillax,

Mull is beautiful and paired with Cill-Mhoire just let yourself find your own happiness, it's easy to tell others about food ,etc but enjoyed all visits even local shop in Dervaig is packed with everything you can want,local pub is worth walking to,as is the church a few yards past the pub,I can honestly say there was not one issue anywhere apart from rain (nobody can control this)

Would Recommend: Yes

1st October 2023:

Fantastic. You cannot fault the Lodge, the grounds, the location, the staff. A perfect holiday in a perfect place.

The Old Byre just the other side of Dervaig great little cafe. The art gallery at Calgary for coffee and snacks. Don't try looking for wildlife, it will come to you. Loch Torr hide on a wet day. Buzzards vs eagles. Both big, but if its silent, probably an eagle. Buzzards can't keep quiet. Finally, Tobermory Bay Cruise, £15 for an hour. Money well spent and lots of possibilies.

Would Recommend: Yes

Lovely place to stay and just relax. Our 6th visit so we obviously enjoy the location and the lodges. The owners are lovely and will help you with ideas and suggestions if you ask.

Would Recommend: Yes

25th September 2023:

Very comfortable well-equipped lodge. Owners very helpful.

Instructions for road to Dervaig from Salen very helpful - drove to Tobermory over mountain road next day - single track with many hairy hairpin bends, but interesting with great views. Took 1 min ferry to Ulva - well worth doing - lots of well signposted walks there, and excellent restaurant - and it was blowing a gale when we went! Calgary beach also well worth a visit.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd September 2023:

A lovely home from home for the week with brilliant facilities and small touches which make all the difference. We will absolutely be back and also recommend these lodges to friends and family. We really enjoyed having the space of two floors in the Lodge, it made it feel really spacious.

Look up! We saw plenty of birds and gorgeous starry skies from outside the lodge. The local pub has a quiz on a Thursday at 8pm which was a lovely way to end our stay. We organised a click and collect in Oban so that we had everything we needed food wise for the week. The cafe at the Cheese farm is well worth a visit

Would Recommend: Yes

19th September 2023:

The lodges are very clean and comfortable and in a superb location above Dervaig. Jo and Tom are very helpful and friendly and the information pack in the lodge is excellent.

We had a wonderful stay in Willow lodge. The lodge was clean, comfortable and warm with great views, and was well-equipped with bed linen, towels, cleaning products, plates & cutlery etc, and even had spare blankets and a hot water bottle. We loved staying in the lodge and Jo and Tom were great hosts.

The local convenience store in Dervaig is within walking distance and has a good selection of food & drink. The local pub is also within walking distance but we didn't visit it because we enjoyed staying in the lodge so much. Loch Torr and Loch Frisa are also nearby.

Would Recommend: Yes

31st August 2023:

Just perfect accommodation, very clean and well thought out. Lots of welcome extras to get the family started. Owners obviously cared about their guests with an amazing information pack (very useful) and onsite if needed. So relaxing.

Hired bikes from Salem, good quality and advice on off-road tracks. Loved our walks. Quaint heritage centre nearby with tea rooms. Loved beaches, including Calgary, where we had a fantastic walk through a Sculpture Park, very interesting, with awesome views for all ages. I really recommend eating at AR Bord (booked before we arrived) with wonderful food (but not a place for children). Devaig is fantastic with a well-stocked shop/post office, sadly not a warm welcome at pub when we arrived for Thursday night quiz. Want to return for longer stay.

We stayed in the Rowan Lodge for 3 nights, it was absolutely beautiful, amazing views and super clean. Lovely touches everywhere! Highly recommended for a Mull trip.

The Ballachroy pub and the bottom of the hill is worth a visit for well earned refreshments and food. 3 miles from the lodge there is a restaurant called AM Berlinn which serves wonderful food!!! Don’t forget a trip to Staffa Island to see Fingal’s Cave and Iona.

We are a family of five and Beech had all we needed for our holiday. We all had enough space. An excellent place to stay. Such a nice setting with the gardens. We were looked after really well by Jo and Tom. Reassuring to have them around. Thank you so much for calling us to let us know about the items we had left behind so we could nip back to get them.

The Post Office in Dervaig is great for food and supplies. Plenty of choice for vegans too. We enjoyed a good takeaway from the Belachroy after a long walk. The walk to the tearoom at Glengorm and back is lovely. We didn't walk out to Quinish Point this time, but an early morning run to Mingarry and then Quinish was a great 10k with eagles and ravens. Evenings at Croig watching the seals, terns, greenshank, turnstones, and curlews was also excellent. A rainy day in Tobermory was lovely too. Snacks from the Piece Box. Another excellent takeaway from the Spicy Sprout was delicious. Loved watching the male Hen Harrier down past the bridge in Dervaig. Days where we didn't need to use the car were the best. Climbed the hill to look at the stars and saw the ISS passing by. And so much more.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd August 2023:

Thank you for the warm welcome and all the tips. The lodge was well stocked with maps and guides and everything worked. One thing you might want to look at is the bathroom door as it kept swinging open unless it was firmly closed.

Calgary Bay was amazing for our kids even in the wind. The local tourist office does a quest for kids too, which helped encourage them to do things around the island. The boat across to ulva island was a great experience too.

Would Recommend: Yes

Great place to stay especially if you have a dog. Well designed lodge. Great welcome.

The booklet in the lodge has it all. Ar Bord is exceptional and just a short walk away but you do need to book early.

Great location with a fantastic view. Jo and Tom are wonderful hosts. The houses are well equipped and the kitchen is 'ready to use'. We loved to cook our dinner there. They also provide useful maps and books for hiking the isle. Best place to slow down

Book a ticket for the ferry far in advance!

Would Recommend: Yes

29th July 2023:

A very well equipped and welcoming lodge. Lots of games to choose from, blankets on very comfy sofas for the evening. Lovely views from the lodge.

Highly recommended a boat trip with Mull Charters, based at Ulva ferry. Nice base to wander down to the Bellachroy pub and have a walk along the Loch side. Croig has 2 wonderful secluded beaches to find, easy enough to bike to. We enjoyed a great meal at Mcgochians in Tobermory.

Would Recommend: Yes

29th July 2023:

Hosts friendly and helpful and nearby if needed. Wiling to chase you miles up the road in a car to return items left behind! Couldn’t thank them enough.

So convenient as nearby in Dirvaig there is a post office, well stocked shop, and a really nice pub which serves good food. It’s also handy for visits to Tobermory, Calgary Bay - the beach is a must - lovely scenery and a garden to relax in.

Would Recommend: Yes

26th July 2023:

This lodge was perfect for our family, the hosts were very welcoming and approachable. The lodge had everything we needed and more.

You don't need to take lots of stuff as there is a washing machine, washing lines and all basic essentials including a full size fridge freezer.

Would Recommend: Yes

23rd July 2023:

Lovely accommodation. Lots of small touches which make all the difference e. g. a selection of zip lock bags for sandwiches!

We dined at Am Bord which is a stone’s throw away. Quality dining but bring your own drinks. Next night went to the pub which again is about 10 minutes walk. Standard pub grub but perfectly fine. Did an organised wild life tour one day. 1000 hrs to 1700 hrs in a minibus. Great to see the island and its wildlife with out the stress of driving. It was sun out of Tobermory.

Would Recommend: Yes

18th July 2023:

The lodges are very high standard and equipped with most things you can think of, with a generous supply of tea, coffee milk etc, Jo and Tom are great hosts and very welcoming. This is our second visit and would definitely plan to go back at some stage next time visiting Mull

Am Birlinn Restaurant - the food and service is very good. Trip over to Ardnumurchan peninsula on the ferry from Tobermory was very good. Glenforsa Restaurant is also nice for a spot of lunch if down that end of the Island

Would Recommend: Yes

18th July 2023:

We loved our stay. Felt like home right from the off. Would absolutely recommend to other travellers.

Mixed weather but we enjoyed using Lodge as base to get out and explore island. Dervaig in itself was great, and also enjoyed hospitality, food & drink at Bellachroy Inn. Overall though we felt people on the island were very welcoming/ friendly. That combined with the homely feel/comfort of the lodge, is why we hope to return one day.

Amazing! I would really like to know what make the mattress is as it was extremely comfortable to sleep on. The whole experience was wonderful, thank you.

Hi Catherine Thank you for your review. The mattresses are Hypnos 'Beaumont pillow top'. They were supplied through the commercial arm of the company but I'm pretty sure they are available domestically too. We're glad you slept well! Jo and Tom

15th July 2023:

Thank you so much for the most wonderful holiday. Our lodge was perfect - so clean & spacious! With everything we could need/want. We could have stayed forever! Thank you for being perfect hosts - we really enjoyed our chats & for sharing your local knowledge on things to do/places to go! We’ll definitely be back!

Calgary beach is stunning - just a short drive from Dervaig. The local shop based within the Post Office in Dervaig has everything you need to get stocked up! Highly recommend Sea Life Mull for their Whale/dolphin spotting trip. We had a magical day out of the water with the most wonderful people! Also recommend The Gallery in Tobermory for breakfast/lunch (dog friendly) & Louises’s Pet Care - she took the most wonderful care of our dog whilst we were on our boat trip! He had the best time!

Would Recommend: Yes

15th July 2023:

The lodge was spotlessly clean and equipped with everything we could possibly have needed. The guide books and information gave us lots of ideas for extra things to do, so much so that we will have to come back - we couldn't fit it all in. An idyllic setting, and we found Dervaig to be a good location, easy to get to pretty much everywhere on the island. Thank you for a lovely holiday

We had a lovely meal at Am Birlam, the Ulva ferry is probably the cutest ferry in Scotland. The short trip over to Ulva includes entry to the little museum. Plus amazing coffee & cake at the Boathouse on the jetty at Ulva. The Turus Mara boat trip to the Treshnish islands was fabulous, puffins, seals, dolphins, razorbills, shags, sea eagles abd fingals cave. Well worth the money for an unforgettable day out. Unfortunately the sea otters eluded us!

Would Recommend: Yes

12th July 2023:

Perfect location for a short visit to see our daughter who is working in Tobermory. Greeted on arrival by Tom who was very friendly & welcoming. The lodge was perfectly equipped with everything we could want - well equipped kitchen for that all essential cooked breakfast, comfy beds, cosy & warm living area.

We would definitely recommend The Bellachroy Inn in Dervaig for food but you will need to book. Also, fish & chips from Hook’d on Main Street in Tobermory, they were excellent. We loved the walk up to the light house in Tobermory & a visit to the Hebridean Whale & Dolphin Trust. The island as a whole totally lived up to expectations, stunning scenery & wildlife & friendly people

The lodges are in a stunning location from where Coll can be seen in the distance. We hired Willow, which was just what we two needed. Very comfortable, clean and warm, with a great sitting out area. The lodge was one of the best-equipped that we have ever stayed in, and we particularly appreciated the maps and walking guides. Jo and Tom were very welcoming and full of local information.

Am Birlinn served us a delicious Sunday lunch. Evenings were fully booked. The cheese farm cafe, the Boathouse on Iona, An Tobar (after a steep climb up from Tobermory harbour), all provided excellent coffee / cake. The Piece Box bread was great. For wildlife trips, Turus Mara might be better than Staffa Tours, and Nature Scotland land-based tours were recommended. HW and DT walking tour from Glengorm was fascinating. The hill road from Dervaig to Ulva Ferry is much better than the one from Calgary, although it too is narrow. For gardeners, Lip na Cloiche is beautiful.

Excellent stay once again, everything was perfect thanks to the meticulous care and devotion by Jo & Tom.

Idyllic location, the little shop in the village has everything you need. The pub serves good food and the coffee pot in Salen has excellent cakes and filled baguettes, opens in time to pick up a breakfast baguette before the 11am ferry.

Would Recommend: Yes

17th June 2023:

Exceeded our expectations by a mile. It was perfect in every way and we could have easily just spent the whole holiday sitting on the porch looking at the view! The hosts were so lovely and very welcoming, and the lodge had everything we could possibly need. It was nice to find a place that would do a 3 or 4 night shorter break when you have to factor in travel time if coming a long way like us!

Things we enjoyed - Langamull Beach, very quiet, nesting birds. Calgary Bay, great for swimming, and walks. Walks on Ulva, especially the woodland walk. Walks and bird hide at Loch Torr. Lunch at Mull Cheese farm. Dinner at Am Berlin. Island Bakery Biscuits from the honesty shed outside Biscuit factory.

Would Recommend: Yes

17th June 2023:

Tom and Jo were great , friendly hosts. Sycamore lodge was so comfortable ,clean and well equipped. We would definitely recommend it as a base for exploring Mull. We were blessed with great weather but Sycamore Lodge would have been a great place to hunker down in the rain too ! Bed was super comfy as was the lounge. Good over bath shower. Well equipped kitchen.

Mull is big !! Takes 2 hours to get to Iona for example but journey beautiful. Dervaig is a pretty little village with good pub ( within walking distance ) and well stocked shop. Calgary Beach lovely. Art Trail cafe good and lunch at Glass Cafe on cheese farm was very tasty! Staffa and Treshnish with Turus Mara was very enjoyable in 26 degrees heat ! Tobermory is an interesting town and walk to lighthouse lovely.

See it all. Drive the west coast as the scenery is stunningly beautiful. Walk the lochs and try the hide at Loch Tor to see the wildlifs. Calgary beach is a must for anh water loving hound and there's a lovely tea room there too. Just a few of my highlights but I know there is so much more still to explore.

This is our second stay at Cill-Mhoire, and we were as impressed by this visit as with our first. Sycamore Cottage was cosy, comfortable and very well equipped. Jo and Tom even provided doggy treats, a bowl and towel for our Cockapoo. They were excellent hosts, on hand every day, and provided lots of useful information about Mull in the folder in the cottage. The outdoor space gave great views of the beautiful scenery around Cill-Mhoire.

Dervaig is a lovely little village, with a great little general store. It’s a good place from which to explore the north of Mull. The walk at Glengorm Castle is worth doing for the spectacular scenery, and the cafe there had great food too! The coastal road to Ulva is definitely worth a drive, with similarly spectacular scenery. Iona was lovely, with the Abbey a major attraction, but the beaches at the north of the island are worth a visit too.

Willow Cottage was perfect in location and facilities. It had everything we needed for our stay and Jo and Tom were so kind and helpful. We would love to return.

Mull is amazing - four seasons in one day and amazing wildlife. We would recommend a wildlife tour with a local guide. We booked a day out with Andrew Tomison, he knew where to take us to see otters, golden eagles and white tailed sea eagles - it was an amazing day.

A beautiful stay, and a perfect location for seeing the whole of the north of the island (or even the south if you’re up for a day of driving). Gorgeous views, well working and cozy facilities and a heated floor in the shower room that can’t be beaten after a dip in the sea! Would highly recommend to anyone, especially those looking for a more flexible short stay!

We loved our stay in Rowan lodge. It's beautiful and well equipped with everything you could need. Modern and bright whilst being cosy and comfortable. Incredible, far reaching views and a beautiful well maintained garden. We enjoyed relaxing on our verandah after a long walk. Jo and Tom are friendly and welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. We stayed for a week and could have happily stayed longer.

Dervaig is a lovely, picturesque village. The local store has everything you might need and friendly staff. We had amazing cake at The Old Byre coffee shop and delicious food and beer at the Bellachroy pub. Great walks in the local area and nearby. Loved Treshnish coastal walk also Calgary sculpture walk and beach.

Would Recommend: Yes

29th September 2022:

We stayed at Rowan Lodge @ Cill-Mhoire Lodges prior to Jo & Tom's ownership, we were not disappointed. A warm welcome awaited our rather later than planned arrival, & their generosity in providing all that could possibly be needed when self-catering was amazing. Very clean accommodation, comfortable bed, warm lodge, and plenty of hot water, what more could we ask for? Very clear guest info file, yet J&T with their friendly outlook were very happy to assist with any queries. We'd give them 5*s. Thanks to both of you. (Perhaps the wooden floors with 2 excitable dogs meant, at times we were not so relaxed!)

Mull wove its magic yet again! Only 1 long day out, travelling to Iona, but worth the drive to also revisit Uisken beach and Ardalanish Weavers. Another worthwhile visit to the friendly Isle of Mull Silversmiths; I claimed another piece of Mull jewellery! We had 2 very good meals out, @ Am Birlinn & Cafe Fish, both need to be booked in advance. Walks every day, but be aware of roaming sheep and cattle, there are places for dogs to run free, locally @ Calgary Bay and a circular walk in Devaig (towards Quinish Hse). We spotted an Otter, White-tailed Eagle & seals. We will be back. Thank you, Mull.

21st September 2022:

Willow Lodge was the perfect retreat for my mother and I while she was visiting Mull. It had all the comforts of home which enabled us to spend time out sightseeing knowing we could come back to the lodge in the afternoons/evenings and take our time making a nice dinner together while relaxing on the comfy sofas chatting into the night or watching a movie. We also loved that our dogs were welcome and special provisions were made for them such as comfy blankets so they could join us on the sofa and a whole jar of treats for them to share! Willow Lodge has the most beautiful views from the front porch and we both enjoyed having our morning coffee out on the porch as the day got started. Our hosts were wonderful and quick to respond to any questions. One of the best, if not THE best, self-catering experiences we have had!

Mull is such an amazing place to visit and you would never run out of things to do! The hosts at Cill-Mhoire have a fantastic supply of materials available in their accommodations with up-to-date information on all of the local attractions from dining to wildlife tours to walks to shopping on the island. You could simply just show up and plan your outings once you have arrived!

Beautiful location and a well catered lodge with everything you’ll need. Easy driving distance to Tobermory but more than enough away to be lost.

Local pub is with walking distance (albeit on unlit road - there is a torch within the lodge) and it is lovely with good food and a great atmosphere. Maps are provided and their accommodation information is excellent so you’ll have plenty of ideas of where to go and how to get there.

Lovely enclosed verandah from which to look over the valley and the sea a few miles away. The chalet catches the sun all day and gets wonderful views of subsets and then starlit skies. Beautiful gardens aid the whole site are immaculately maintained, yet naturalistic.

Recommend the walk to Quinush Point (5 his including stops). Lovely woodland for part of the way so was able to let the dog off the lead. Then it onto a wonderful headland with atmospheric standing stone and a seal colony just off the rocks. Walk up to the volcanic crater gave amazing views.

Would Recommend: Yes

26th August 2022:

Well designed lodge (everything we could have needed) with fantastic views. Great place to explore Mull from. Very helpful owners, nothing was any trouble.

We would highly recommend the Sea Eagle boat trip from Ulva Pier. We also loved going over to Ulva by calling the Ferryman - the food was excellent at the Boathouse on Ulva. Iona was well worth the long and beautiful journey - we particularly enjoyed the Sunday Service on Iona (also means you get into the Abbey free)

Would Recommend: Yes

16th August 2022:

The lodge was simply breath taking. It had everything that you could think of form spoons to hair straighteners. The upstairs lounge is a great idea for the views. We didn't want to leave, Rowan Lodge was a real home from home. There is so much to see and do form Devaig. I honestly cant think of a way that our stay could have been improved. Our hosts were really friendly and knowledgeable. A fantastic stay we would return in a heartbeat.

Watch the skies. Check out the wild life hides. Walk up the hill to the bench and......well when you get there you will know. Soak in the silence.

Had a wonderful stay in the Willow lodge. The lodge was perfect for us - everything we needed and nothing we didn't. The guide book in the lodge was packed with useful information and several days were planned around activities recommended. A stunning setting too. I would not hesitate to recommend to others - many thanks for your hospitality.

It felt like we only really scratched the surface. The boys and I particularly enjoyed Laggan Sands, crabbing at Croig and the Aquarium in Tobermory. Staffa was worth a trip, but quite busy when we arrived and access was a little tricky as a result. Calgary bay was lovely too. So many lovely places - we were really lucky with the weather.

Lovely, immaculate, very well equipped lodges. Very friendly owners. Lots of information about Mull provided to help plan trip. Very dog friendly, big garden with stream. Would highly recommend staying.

We only visited Mull for 5 days, arriving late on our first day. We toured round the whole island which meant quite busy, long days so would suggest a longer visit for a more relaxing holiday.

We had a 4 night stay in the Rowan Lodge and it was fantastic everything you could ever need was provided. We were on holiday to get married and we’re we lined by a beautiful card and and a bottle of fizz so thoughtful.

Location is perfect for travelling around and an extensive folder full of loads of information about the island is provided at the accommodation.

This was our second stay. Our lodge (Beech) was spotlessly clean and comfortable for two couples, a teenager and a dog, as long as one couple don’t mind single beds which are fixed, so can’t be made into a double. The dog got his own welcome pack which he loved! Tom and Jo were friendly and helpful. The information pack in the lodge was full of recommendations for walks, beaches and local restaurants. We followed quite a few and were not disappointed. We would highly recommend Cill Mhoire and plan to return.

We had a lovely meal at Ar Bord in Dervaig - bookings are essential. It’s only a couple of minutes walk from Cill Mhoire. We swam from Langamull Beach, Calgary and the black sands at Killninian. All were stunning and only a short drive from Dervaig. A visit to Iona is a “must do”. It’s almost two hours’ drive from Dervaig to the ferry and so visitors may prefer an overnight stay.

23rd July 2022:

Myself and a friend stayed for a week in Beech Lodge and we couldn’t have been happier. The lodge was so well equipped that we could have moved in permanently without having to buy a thing except food and toiletries. The welcome pack was lovely and much appreciated after our long journey from Derbyshire. We even had ice cubes in the freezer! We were made really welcome from the minute we arrived until the minute we sadly left. The lodges are sited in a beautiful quiet spot only a short walk from the village where there is an amazingly well stocked shop and The Bellachroy pub where you can get fantastic meals with lots of gluten free options on the menu. As for the internet access………fast and faultless! If we get the opportunity to return to this breathtakingly beautiful island, then this is the only place we’d consider staying. I really can’t recommend Cill Moire Lodges enough!

23rd July 2022:

Pristine comfortable accomodation equipped with everything you could need superbly comfortable beds and lovely bedding spacious bright lounge and great Wi-Fi too. Jo and Tom are lovely friendly and very helpful hosts and made the stay at Rowan a memorable one for us. The location is lovely on the edge of Dervaig with a great local shop and pub and good access to Tobermory. I really cannot recommend Cill-Mhoire Lodges highly enough. Cannot wait to visit again.

We loved visiting the cafe at Glengorm great lunches soups sandwiches quiche and salads all freshly made . Also offers excellent walks. Another favourite was the old post office at Glenbuie lovely seafood lunch dishes and brilliant cakes and coffee. They also sell a range of Glenbuie larder meals ( no artificial flavours or ingredients ) delicious to heat up at home . Lucy Mackenzie’s garden Lip na Cloich is well worth a visit I came away with more plants again !

Perhaps it's enough to say whilst enjoying our 3rd annual stay at Cill-Mhoire, we booked our 4th! There is nothing we can fault - beautiful location, spacious lodge (we stay in Sycamore Lodge), super comfy bed, spotlessly clean, best equipped self-catering property we've ever stayed in with thoughtful extra touches added. Jo and Tom are great hosts who really have thought of everything and are always on hand, but never intrusive. Highly recommended!

Lochbuie is a beautiful drive and the food at the Old Post Office makes it a great trip out. The Boathouse on Ulva is another favourite. Highly recommend a boat trip with Turus Mara. Calgary, Langamull and Traigh na Cille are some of our favourite beaches. We had a nice meal at the Bellachroy in Dervaig, within walking distance of the lodges. Be prepared for journeys to take slightly longer than you might expect and use only the passing places - verges hide lots of ditches!

Walking - beaches - local restaurants Ar Bord and Am Birlinn for fine dining. Great pub food at the Bellachroy -local pub - dog friendly in the bar. Supertbview from the Western Isles Hotel in Tobermory - fish and chips from the chippy van on the pier not to be missed.

Would Recommend: Yes

We weren't looking to stay in this particular part of Mull, nor specifically in a lodge, but we were won over on both counts!

Don't let their limited opening hours put you off, the Piece Box is well worth visiting. Their crab samosas were superb. Unless you need to go to Tobermory, the road to Salen up the valley (turn left just before the river bridge) is your best bet. And don't overlook the local store, it stocks a wide range of goods.

Would Recommend: Yes

Jo and Tom do a great job welcoming visitors. Having stayed a few times we know the standard is always excellent,

Am Birlinn for great food, Dervaig local shop for provisions, the Bellachroy to relax with a drink, and lots of walks including Calgary beach -and the tearoom- mean there is lots to enjoy in this area, without having to travel far.

Would Recommend: Yes

Comfortable, cosy accommodation. Very clean. If I was being picky I would suggest maybe a couple more hooks for towels or clothes in the becrooms/bathrooms and maybe an audit of the games cupboard Thanks very much for your hospitality

Jo and Tom were ideal hosts giving us our privacy but being on hand when needed. The notes they sent were helpful and humorous. The advice for our onward journey was excellent. The lodge was spacious, well designed, very comfortable and we can’t think of any item that they had not thought of. It could easily accommodate five people and its location lends itself ideally to those with dogs and who like challenging walks.

Would Recommend: Yes

Lovely lodge, clean, well equipped, comfy beds. Lots of nice little touches - welcome pack, games, jigsaw. Lots of info about Mull. Perfect.

Our best days out - trip to Ulva but be aware the Boathouse cafe may not be open at the weekend. Lovely coffee and cake at the van at Ulva Ferry tho. Also trip to Glengorm castle, the food at their cafe is lovely and there are beautiful walks. Calgary Bay. Beautiful.

Our third or fourth stay here and as usual super clean and equipped lodges. They improve them each time we go with better beds. Better WiFi. The only thing I would like is a dishwasher as I'm just lazy. There are great quality towels. Every thing you need in the kitchen. Even had clingfilm and bin liners.

Dervaig has a pub and a restaurant only a few hundred yards away. It's the perfect base to get to the hills or tobermory. Close to beaches. Probably the best spot on the island. We saw otters, deer, eagles and seals in the week along with assorted sea birds. The only thing we didnt see this year was the sun. But it didn't matter.

Would Recommend: Yes
