Cottage was very comfortable, great location overlooking the harbour and Petrea was very responsive to questions. If there are a couple of things that could be improved they would be having blackout curtains in the bedroom (it is light for so much of the night in Mull in late May) and making the instructions a little clearer around things like recycling. All in all, a lovely quiet place to stay and convenient for getting down into Tobermory for tours (Staffa Tours trip to Staff and Lunga was a highlight), restaurants (Mishnish and Cafe Fish recommended) and the fish and chip van on the quay.

The cottage is very well built and laid out, with good views of the harbour. Triple glazing and good insulation make it comfortably warm enough. The main issues we had were: - Very limited cutlery, crockery and glassware provided. There's not much point having a dishwasher if you need to wash after every meal. - The duvet on the bed when we arrived was horrible - a hard, plasticky feel and filled with polyester which should be replaced. After sweltering for two nights with the windows wide open, we found a lighter one in a wardrobe. - It's important to be aware that - like most rental property in Tobermory - it's a steep walk down and back to the harbourside, where the shops and restaurants are. This rather inevitable if you stay in the town. With those caveats, recommended for Tobermory.

Super comfortable stay in convenient location, close to everything you need in Tobermory . Incredible views! Lovely outside seating space .Warm welcoming and cosy .

Taigh Ciuil cottage in Tobermory was spotlessly clean and overall we enjoyed our stay but there were a couple of issues, the heating situation being the most obvious. It’s apparently centrally controlled by Petrea, the owner. Its coming into October and I found the place cold in the evenings and in the morning. We had no heat for the duration of the stay. There was one towel and no shower gel or soap so I’d advise to bring your own. We found Petrea a little strong in her tone when we were struggling to find the cottage (there are two Breadalbane Lanes!). Positives; it’s a gorgeous wee cottage with stunning views of Tobermory. The place was very clean and there’s a nice wee garden area/patio. For the price I’d expect the option of heating but it didn’t completely tarnish an enjoyable stay.

Well where to begin? ...we stayed here for 12 nights at the princely sum of £1000.00 which we had agreed however page 9 & 10 of the reviews are a misrepresentation the garden is full of weeds garden furniture a total mishmash of bits the decking/verandah sorely in need of some TLCwith a paint brush.the inside was SPOTLESS CLEAN.there were no complementary toiletries & the welcome pack 2 pack of biscuits..REALLY! AND for the piece de resistance!the owner sent us the do's & donts a list as long as both ur arms..1 set of towels each for 12 days & no bed change for that length of time, the shower leaked from under the shower tray all over floor we had to mop every day & the water was not hot after 1 shower & only 1 floor mat for bathroom,and, if all of this was not bad enough when we arrived the tv was not working called owner to be told nothing she can do from Edinburgh & that this has never happened before I asked her if her cleaner could come have a wee look to be told "she has 3 young children" & she said there isn't any one on the island that can fix it !!! Really.!!?? Well petrea this is not our 1st RODEO at island life or tobermorry and are you forgetting the amount of people we're friendly with & who we're friendly with ??? Well folks do you remember cleaner with 3 young kids that couldn't come to help ? Well she rolled up next morning and we thought great she's come to fix tv NO!! SHE'D COME TO FETCH PORTABLE WASHING MACHINE FOR AISLING COTTAGE she's a wee slip of a girl my husband carried it down for her.toilet seat all squee-wiff & 2 small very cheap toilet rolls .I would have at least expected a phone from owner for the cleaners intrusion all be it a lovely girl & owner has contacted us to ask how things went 're telly ! Poor show all round .

The cottage is positioned above Tobermory bay giving great views of the bay and beyond to the mainland, many small boats to large cruise liners visit with plenty to watch coming and going. Going on a whale watching trip by local boats is well worth the rental as there is loads to see in the seas around Mull and beyond. Also there are plenty of organised trips around the island bird watching with plenty of sea eagles andt the like to watch. A trip to Iona is well worth the visit either by car or bus and a short ferry ride to visit Iona Abbey. Even returning by ferry to Oban for the day for sight seeing is not to be missed. This was our second visit to this cottage and we will return again and again to enjoy its location and comforts.

Taigh Ciuil is a lovely cottage in a great location with stunning views over Tobermory bay. It has excellent facilities and is finished to a very high standard. It is the ideal base to visit the many delights Mull has to offer including Calgary beach, a must for an visitor. Being located in Tobermory the cottage is ideally situated for all of the local amenieties on offer with the colourful main street being only a few minutes walk away.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Tobermory. The cottage was well equipped and had lovely views over the harbour. It is an easy walk down but a bit of a climb back up to the cottage. Good exercise but not great if you have walking difficulties! If booking with a pet be aware the garden is not enclosed and we were put off a bit by the fact that the back garden has access to another properties back door (same owner). Our issue was that they had a dog as well and there wasn't a fence or gate dividing the two properties, so there dog could wander into our garden area. We always had to check the garden before letting ours out. Other than that, the cottage is lovely and we had a great holiday. Would recommend a visit to Calgary beach which was stunning. Also a trip to Iona, long drive to the ferry but well worth the trip. Iona's beaches again are beautiful and it is a very peaceful island. Another place to visit is Aros park only a five-minute drive from the cottage. Nice walk around Lochan Trail and waterfalls. Most of the island is single track with passing places but people are very courteous but driving between different parts of the island can take quite a while.

Petrea had the home in tip top condition. Very nice and clean and filled with all of the essentials you could ever need. It was in a perfect condition, just a 10min walk down the hill to beautiful Tobermoray. The bed was comfortable, the lounge was warm and cosy with a fireplace and the most gorgeous view over the water. I would definitely recommend as a place to stay, and we will be back to visit again. Thanks for a lovely holiday in your beautiful home.

We have recently stayed at Taigh Ciuil for a week .The cottage as seen by the pictures is within walking distance of the main street and has wonderful views over the bay. It is cosy and very comfortable and we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. It is quite a climb back to the cottage from the main street but we didn't find this to be a problem.Would stay again
