About this property

The Dairy & Castle Cottages once formed the byre and dairy adjoining Aros Mains, home of James Maxwell, Chamberlain to the Duke of Argyll. They lie within the footings of 13th century Aros Castle once occupied by the Lords of the Isles. The Dairy & Castle Cottages offer a comfortable relaxing venue in which to enjoy spectacular scenery, wildlife e.g. White Tailed Sea Eagles, Otters, Golden Eagles, Deer, Bottlenose Dolphins and being approximately 100 yards from the beach affords an opportunity to see a large variety of sea birds including Heron, Oyster Catchers etc. The central location of Aros Mains Apartment, Dairy & Castle Cottages enables one to explore the Isle of Mull and, as Tobermory is a mere 10-15 minutes drive, restaurants and hotels are within easy reach.

Marvellous Holiday

This was such a lovely holiday, it way exceeded our expectations! The cottage itself was spotlessly clean, warm and cosy and very tastefully decorated. All the kitchen utensils one might need were provided, there were two bathrooms and the beds were very comfortable as well. And then, I don't think you can surpass the location: stunning views over the castle ruins and the bay! Richard and his wife gave us a very warm welcome and made us feel at home straight away. This is a definite recommendation for everyone who wants to enjoy this beautiful and diverse island, looking for a cosy and relaxing place to stay.

A beautiful cottage in the perfect location

We received a warm welcome from our hosts who went out of their way to be helpful and informative. Castle cottage is a real gem. It is set in a lovely position overlooking the ruins of Aros castle and the Sound of Mull. The views of these from the first floor living room are wonderful and quite mesmerising. The cottage is warm and cosy, exceptionally clean and has the advantage of a fully equipped kitchen which was perfect. Extra touches of fresh flowers and lovely art work made it feel like a home from home. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

Holiday at Castle Cottage

Absolutely brilliant cottage has everything you need for home away from home. Owners. Very hospitable and helpful and Friendly. The cottage is centrally located on the island which makes everywhere accessible. Lovely little beach just a 100 metres or so from the cottage ideal for early morning/ evening visit to end the day great for paddle boarding ( my first go). Thoroughly recommend staying there.

Fantastic cottage, great base for exploring Mull

This great cottage is perfectly situated a short walk from the beach right in the middle of the east coast of Mull, about 20 mins drive from the Craignure ferry and near to the lovely village of Salen, which is a few mins drive away or walkable in about 40 mins along the estuary and then the beautiful coastal road (keeping a look out for various seabirds, seals and maybe an otter on the way!). We had a really enjoyable week here, and it was a great base from which to explore the island and all of the amazing wildlife and landscape it has to offer. The hosts went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable and we could not recommend this place highly enough. The views of the castle / sea beyond, the free ranging hens outside, the frequent short walks to the coast all particular highlights. We never normally go back to the same place twice, but this is likely to be a rare exception!

Castle cottage is the perfect get-away.

Castle cottage is well located for a stay on Mull. Perfect for walking holidays with local routes from the front door. Local restaurants/hotels serving high quality local caught shell fish and wet fish or buy it yourself at the local retailer & have a night in. Trips to Iona is a must & also Calgary Bay. The Old Byre heritage centre just south of Dervaig is a must visit to get to know all about Mull & its history, cracking tea shop & a friendly welcome too. You will find the location of castle cottage very relaxing & great for sea swimming, only 300 meters away. Views arnt all that bad. If you are into star gazing its very dark sky with zero light pollution. And the White tailed sea eagles are common to the area along with other raptors. So Castle cottage what ever you want from a holiday it has it all.
