About the Area
The world famous "Mull Little Theatre", Britain's smallest professional theatre, stands within the hotel grounds. The theatre was founded in 1964 by Barry and Marianne Hesketh, well known actors. Now a registered Charity, the theatre is thriving with performances from April to October. Booking of seats is recommended and can be arranged.
During your stay with us we can arrange cruises to the Treshnish Isles,
perhaps to visit the legendary Fingal's Cave on Staffa or to see the
fabulous bird colonies, including Puffins, on Lunga. Other boat trips
can be arranged to visit the isles of Coll, Eigg, Muck and Rhum. Wildlife
expeditions are very popular with a good chance of seeing otters, deer,
Golden and Sea Eagles and a profusion of other flora and fauna for which
Mull is so renown.

We are also able to arrange Whale Watching Trips to see Minke Whales, Porpoises and Dolphins, although this is of course very much dependant on the weather. Loch or Sea fishing, with or without a Ghillie can be arranged as can days on the local Golf courses at Tobermory or Craignure.
If of course you prefer to just relax and enjoy the superb scenery we can always advise on things to do and places to visit.
