We loved the experience - The views are breathtaking. The bedrooms are just amazing - huge, soft feather beds, rolltop baths, antique furniture, fluffy white towels, bathrobes, i-pod docking station, hairdryer, lovely biscuits, lovely soap! Husband made the most of the whisky sampling in the library. We enjoyed the leisurely breakfasts in the dining room (food was wonderful). The castle is a B&B tho - so if you are expecting 24 hour service, this may not be the place for you. The coffee shop was good if you want something nearby, otherwise there are lots of places to eat out in in Tobermory. It's a 4 mile drive up a single track road to the castle, which means that it's very quiet up there.

Location

Unfortunately we had torrential rain for most of our 3 day break. The castle made up for this in many ways, but we missed our usual haunts on Mull. There are lots of good walks, I recommend the walks around the castle and Loch Frisa. Boat trips to Staffa and Lunga are great too, although it's better to go earlier in the year when the birds are nesting. Cafe Fish at the end of the harbour in Tobermory was excellent - you need to book.

This is an incredible value for the money, made possible only because it is a bed and breakfast, not a hotel. Our bathroom alone was bigger than my daughter's apartment, and it was so fun to have our own turret as a closet. The bed was huge and comfortable, the linens were high quality and perfect, and the breakfast was choice. I can easily forgo the hotel amenities, like room service, if I get to stay at an unforgettable and wonderful spot.

The highlight of our trip to Glengorm (among many high points) was the Mendelssohn on Mull concert held there the evening of our stay. To hear these amazing musicians in such a perfect setting was something I will never forget. The on-grounds standing stones were also a surprise and pleasure to see.

The cottage itself was immaculate & well presented with all needs catered for. The only 2 negatives & hence the excellent rating instead of outstanding, were that two ajoining cottages had to share one picnic table, and that the approach road was very rocky & more suited to an off road vehicle than a normal car. The castle coffee shop provided excellent food, both in the selection of goods it sold in the farm shop, but also the actual home cooked food it sold in the cafe at lunchtime.

Location

Mull was a wonderful place for a family holiday with lots of attractions to visit for children - mostly at reasonable prices. The sea life surveys wildlife adventure trip from Tobermory was excellent although quite pricey!
