A Victorian castle at the remote northern tip of Mull, run by the Nelson family as self-catering apartments and B&B rooms, with the grounds and coffee shop open to day visitors too. Reviewers consistently rate the setting, sea, mountains, and grazing sheep all visible from the windows, above any single amenity.

Worth the trip

The view from the rooms — reviewers repeatedly mention sunsets and a panorama taking in ocean, mountains, and farmland all at once.

Before you go

Check the cafe's opening days before relying on it for meals — more than one reviewer found it closed unexpectedly — and given the remote location, it's worth planning your own food for at least one meal of the stay.

Most visitors staying at Glengorm Castle describe the accommodation as spacious, beautifully decorated, and set in a remote location with sweeping views, with the nearby cafe and tea room drawing repeat praise. One reviewer had a mixed experience, finding the castle cafe closed during their stay and missing modern conveniences like USB charging, WiFi and a dishwasher in their otherwise comfortable room.
