Accommodation in Tobermory is plentiful, however, during the school
holiday period it is advisable to book months, rather than weeks in
advance, particularly for self catering accommodation.
GRADING
A good proportion of the accommodation in Tobermory and on the Isle
of Mull is graded
by the Scottish Tourist Board. The Board works on a 'Star'
system with a one to five rating. 5 Star is 'Excellent' or
'World Class'. Mull boasts many providers at the 'top end' of
the grading system We have a 5 Star Campsite at 'The
Shielings' in Craignure and a 5 Star Self catering at
Glengorm
Castle not to mention a large number of 4 Star accommodation
with some people offering a
range of
cottages. Standards generally are very good and improving all
the time as the demand for quality increases.
CAMPING
Mull has three main
campsites on the island at
Craignure,
Balmeanach and
Tobermory. Another, more informal site is situated at Fidden on
the Ross of Mull. Informal camping on the island is not a problem,
provided the land owners permission is granted.
HELP WITH
DEFINITIONS
SELF CATERING in the UK
means that the property, normally a cottage, house, or bungalow, is
completely self contained. 'Self Contained' is the description used
in the southern hemisphere, 'Vacation Rental' is the phrase used in
North America.
GUEST HOUSE has
all sorts of connotations, particularly if you come from the
States. In the UK Guest House generally means providers that are
not quite a Hotel but more like a bed and breakfast in their
approach but having more than two letting bedrooms. Normally, also,
they may provide an evening meal. Most bed and breakfasts have a
'closed time' during the day but Guest Houses tend to be more
flexible.
