The Isle of Mull The second largest of the Inner Hebrides, Mull is a highly accessible island, being served by ferry services from Oban, Lochaline on Morvern and Kilchoan on the Ardnamurchan peninsula. A main line train service operates from Glasgow to Oban with some train s connecting with the ferry. There are also good bus links between Oban and the rest of Scotland. The Isle of Mull, which boasts over 500km of coastline along with extraordinary and diverse scenery from dramatic cliffs to towering mountains to white sandy beaches, has undoubted appeal for all. Mull is also home to a variety of rare birds including golden eagles, white-tailed sea eagles and hen harriers. The island is famous for its roaming herds of red deer, and otters may be seen dining on wild brown trou t on the Sound of Mull, or sea otters playing in secluded bays. Cetacean and whale-watching trips are a favourite with tourists, as are trips to the Treshnish Isles to visit the local puffin and seal populations or to Staffa to admire the stunning geology of Fingal’s Cave. Iona, off the Ross of Mull at the south-weste rn tip of the island is also a popular attraction. Due to its size and diverse range of attractions, Mull has a longer tourist season than many of the other Hebridean islands, still receiving large numbers of visitors into October. The island has its own theatre and also hosts a number of music and arts festivals throughout the year.

  • Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan
    Ross of Mull & Iona Community Plan 2011 In 2010 the Ross of Mull (including Pennyghael and Tiroran) and Iona were identified by Highlands and Islands Enterprise as being an area which could receive support through their Growth at the Edge (GatE) programme. This involved supporting an anchor organisation, in this case Mull and Iona Community Trust, to facilitate community growth through the employment of a Local Development Officer and the creation of a Community Plan based on consultation with the local community and a socio-economic analysis. The project is funded by Highlands and Islands Enterprise & LEADER. The document will always be open to suggestions and changes from the community and should not be regarded as being inflexible.
