Come and enjoy Mull at low season November through until March, we are offering short breaks in some of our properties a minimum of 3 nights at a nightly price starting from £60 per night

The winter months are the best time to see wildlife here on the island. otters, eagles, seals red deer, buzzards etc

Enjoy the peace and tranquillity Mull has to offer, come and walk on the white sand beaches and have them all to yourself.

The Isle of Mull is a favourite place for bird watchers and has a large list of regularly seen species including many breeding raptors as well as rare and endangered birds. Some magnificent birds choose to over winter around the shores of Mull. Great Northern Diver and Slavonian Grebe are regularly  seen in summer plumage in early winter and late spring. for more information see website Mull Birds

Mountain Hare

Why come in Winter?

Winter brings breathtaking sunsets and sunrise's and a sense of solitude that the visitor can almost touch. Otters are having their young at this time of year to coincide with the warmer waters that the Gulf Stream brings. There are wintering ducks on sea lochs and estuaries and great northern divers in abundance, here to escape the colder weather in Iceland. golden eagles and sea eagles are territorial all year round and because of the Islands peacefulness there are close encounters to be had with both species.  Red deer are very easy to see and in the mountains ptarmigan and mountain hares are in their winter coats. Barnacle geese and Greenland white fronted geese have returned from their arctic breeding grounds and though we do not often see snow in the Hebrides, our highest mountain Ben More usually has snow on it from October to May and this can make for a fantastic backdrop on a sunny and windless day in winter as it rises majestically from the sea. Maybe the best reason to choose the winter  is because sighting's can be unexpected and unique and wildlife is often where it should not be!!

 

Winter Walking Breaks

There's no need to hang up your walking boots just because Summer is over. Get away from it all and enjoy a short weekend walking break on Mull as walking in Winter is invigorating, peaceful and beautiful. Take time out to enjoy the stunning seascapes, relish the pure air and be captivated by Mull's amazing wildlife. The seals, otters and eagles are still here but the midges have gone. Wildlife experts rate Winter as the best time to view the wildlife, the bracken has disappeared, the trees are bare and animals are hungry. These short weekend breaks will give you a taste of winter walking and Mull's wildlife at its best.
