Visiting Loch Lomond Responsibly
Loch Lomond and The Trossachs is only one of two national parks in Scotland and its ease of access makes it a very popular place to visit.
Along with the Isle of Skye, it is often cited as a destination which suffers from overtourism.
Ways to travel to Loch Lomond responsibly include:
Visit during quieter seasons and outside of school holidays
Leave no trace – pick up all your litter from days out and camping
Apply for a permit to camp, you cannot ‘wild camp’ at Loch Lomond
Book local accommodation and dine out
Be respect of locals, don’t park outside of car parks and parking spaces
Use public toilets, if you have to do a number two while hiking, dig deep and cover the hole up
People have died swimming, only get into the water where it is safe to do so. Seven people died in 2021, don’t take this warning lightly
Glasgow is the Scottish city with sass. Every visitor’s itinerary features the capital, Edinburgh, and rightfully so as it is beautiful and steeped in history but Glasgow is real and Glasgow is raw. It’s the big city with contrasting neighbourhoods, deadly music and art scene and most importantly, people with banter. Edinburgh is Paris, Glasgow is Berlin and here is your one day in Glasgow itinerary curated with love by me, Gemma, the Fifer who ‘grew up’ in Glasgow
I (Gemma) moved to Scotland’s Dear Green Place at the age of 17 to attend the University of Glasgow and didn’t leave until my late 20s when I moved to the dark side, Edinburgh. I now reside in Fife.
Glasgow is where I met my life-long friends, formed my political views, danced around my handbag, gained weight by eating chips n’ cheese, lost the weight running around Kelvingrove Park – when I drive into Charing Cross the same feeling consumes me, that feeling that I’m home.
Personally, I don’t think one day in Glasgow is enough to really understand why it is special but I understand itinerary time constraints, I’ve been there.
This itinerary will recommend a variety of options for your day trip to Glasgow so you can pick and choose what suits your travel needs.
Covering Glasgow’s top attractions, the appeal of the five main neighbourhoods, food recommendations, which Glasgow pubs to party at and where to get the perfect shots.
This guide will also cover Glasgow’s past which some would like to hide, its involvement in the slave trade.
Glasgow’s Neighbourhoods
In Scotland, we don’t really use the term neighbourhoods but from my extensive travel in North America, I understand categorising areas of a city is the easiest way to help visitors find their bearings.
Glasgow does have distinct areas that can be zoned off making it an easy task.
Beginning with the City Centre you will find both train stations, Glasgow Central and Queen Street at George Square, and the Buchanan Bus Station.
There are three main streets starting with Argyle Street, which runs from the West End to the East, Buchanan Street and Sauchiehall Street.
You will find Glasgow’s main shops on these three streets along with bars and restaurants.
One of the main drags of pubs and clubs for younger revellers is located at the top of Sauchiehall Street, after the shops.
Like with all cities, you want to veer off the big streets to discover the unique pubs like the Butterfly and the Pig which features mismatched furniture from your Gran’s house.
Behind Buchanan Street is the upmarket Merchant City bars, clubs and restaurants as well as Strathclyde University.
This is the area of Glasgow most associated with its slave trade involvement.
At the end of Argyle Street to the east is the Trongate, check out the 13th Note for vegetarian food, Clutha for a welcoming local bar and the Tron Theatre for shows, which takes you along the infamous Barras weekend market, a real Glasgow tradition and passed the Barrowlands, a true Glasgow establishment which houses music gigs, and into the East End.
Don’t miss Barras Art and Design (BaAd) internal courtyard for drinks and shopping, support the local shop owners by purchasing here.
The East End is also home to Glasgow Cathedral, Provand’s Lordship (oldest house in Glasgow), Glasgow’s necropolis, Glasgow Green (park), the People’s Palace and two breweries.
Running parallel to Argyle Street is Glasgow’s Canal.
Bridges take you over to our third neighbourhood, the Southside.
The Southside has its own parks, Queens and Pollok.
Most of the bars and restaurants are found around Pollokshaws Road, check out the Glad cafe for vegan cakes and intimate gigs.
The West End of Glasgow is where you will find most of the students in the city as well as a stylish crowd.
The main street is Byres Road, which is always busy with brunchers and shoppers.
Visit Oran Mor for gigs and don’t miss the cute cobbled street, Ashton Lane, for drinks under the fairy lights.
In summer, you can find a beer garden on Ashton Lane and there is also a small cinema.
Running along the back of Byres Road is Great Western Road, which is packed with vintage shops, furniture stores and food stops.
The University of the Glasgow is found behind Ashton Lane on University Avenue.
From there you can reach Kelvingrove Park, and museum or Woodlands Road, for comedy see The Stand, down to Charing Cross and back into town.
However, we are not quite finished with the West End yet because at the bottom of Byres Road you will find Argyle Street, which runs into the Finnieston neighbourhood.
Finnieston used to be known purely for the Teuchter or Highlander Triangle because of the three pubs, the Park Bar, The Islay Inn and Snaffle Bit.
Head here to listen to trad music, especially around Celtic Connections time but this area has exploded in the past years.
If you are in town for ethically sourced food hop into the food trucks at Dockyard Social, noodles, curries, pizzas, vegan specialities, and drinks.
Finnieston Road leads to the Clyde, the Ovo Hydro, Glasgow SECC, Clydeside Distillery and the Transport Museum.
Getting Around Glasgow
Glasgow has an extensive network of bus routes, trains and also our beloved underground aka the metro or subway.
Our underground is not difficult to navigate.
It only goes around in one loop then back around the other way.
It is affectionally known as the Clockwork Orange and if you just want to spend your one day in Glasgow boozing you should play the Clockwork Orange drinking game.
The game involves getting off at each stop and having a tipple!
If you want to learn more about the city, save time and your feet, check out the Glasgow hop on/off tour bus with audio guide.
One Day in Glasgow – City Centre and the East End
Morning in Glasgow
Kick-off with a full Scottish breakfast or stacked French toast at Café Gandolfi (Albion Street) or eggs at the trendy Wilson Street Pantry in the Merchant City.
You’re going to need the energy.
Next, it’s a visit to one of Glasgow’s points of interest, the Gallery of Modern Art on Royal Exchange Square.
This museum is located in the former Cunninghame Mansion, home of the tobacco and sugar merchant and one of the prolific merchants of the transatlantic tobacco trade, William Cunninghame of Lainshaw.
In front of the GOMA is the iconic Duke of Wellington which often has a street cone on his head.
Next mooch through the Merchant City keeping your eyes peeled for the street art murals and more links to Glasgow’s slave trade involvement such as (Tobacco Lord, James) Wilson Street and (John) Glassford Street (tobacco plantation owner in Virginia and Maryland).
Glasgow is yet to recognise that these street names celebrate Scots who enslaved people for profit.
Other cities with similar involvement such as Bristol, England have created museums and made some changes.
Afternoon in Glasgow Itinerary
Go slightly off-piste to grab a sandwich at the chic takeaway, Piece (100 Miller St), jamming to the tunes while you wait on your ‘Jerk Off’.
Head back east via Argyle Street towards the Trongate and on to Barrowlands Park.
Count the bands you’ve seen then promise to come back to watch one live at the Barrowlands itself.
Walk towards the Barrowlands, if visiting on a weekend swing by the Barras Market to experience this Glasgow institution set up by Maggie McIver who died a multi-millionaire in 1958.
If you love music you will want to join the Glasgow City Music Tours run by music journalists complimenting Glasgow’s UNESCO City of Music status. Grab a bite to eat at BaAd or continue on to the next stop on your Glasgow itinerary.
From here you have two options – park, palace and a pint or God’s house, the graveyard and gin.
Option 1: Glasgow Green, Breweries and Lunch
Glasgow Green is where you will find the People’s Palace, which houses a really interesting exhibition on life in Glasgow throughout the ages.
Look out for the washing line poles in the Green too; these were used by locals to dry their clothes!
Take a well-deserved pit stop at West Brewery or Drygate Brewery. Both serve food, beer and other drinks.
The Palais on Duke Street (Denniston) is another hip lunch option.
Option 2: Cathedral, Necropolis and Provand’s Lordship
Walk towards Castle Street to see Glasgow’s Cathedral, tours are available (one hour long), donations are welcomed. Behind the Cathedral you will find Glasgow’s necropolis, the giant graveyard that overlooks the city.
From up on the hill you will get some of the best views of Glasgow so have your camera ready.
End this history tour at the oldest house in Glasgow, Provand’s Lordship, across from the Cathedral and since you are here it would be rude not to pop into St Mungo’s Museum to see the Egyptian mummy.
It is run by a real Glaswegian who is happy for you to ask them any question about life in the city!
Take that extra 5-minute walk to see St Mungo himself sprayed on the end gable (not the official name of this street art mural).
Head back to the Merchant City to enjoy whisky cocktails at Buck’s Bar or classic drinks and bar food at Bar Home.
For a real culture shock head to the charming Alpen Lodge (25A Hope St) for its banging jukebox and live music at the weekends, if you can squeeze in.
Sticking around for the evening? Is it Saturday?
Then get yer dancin’ shoes on because Saturday night is ceilidh night at Sloans.
Add a meal on to make a full night of it.
One Day in Glasgow – City Centre and the West End
Morning Itinerary Options
Follow the above morning itinerary but after street art spotting at the Merchant City, which continues throughout the city, there are over 22 murals to discover, make your way to Argyle or Buchanan Street underground tube station (subway/metro) to Hillhead Station arriving at Byres Road in the West End.
Alternatively, choose one of the afternoon options if you prioritise those Glasgow tourist attractions.
A few lunch suggestions here depending on when you are visiting.
At the weekend, head to the Platform food market at the Arches on Argyle Street.
The ex-dance music venue is now home to food trucks selling locally sourced food from Indian to haggis (Friday-Sunday). Image below.
I recommend the surf and turf slider burger! Drinks are also available and the venue is kid and dog-friendly.
During the week you can eat any type of food you want in Glasgow.
For mac and cheese head to Sloans.
I love Japanese and can recommend Nippon Kitchen (91 W George Stree) for traditional meals/bento boxes and Mikaku (25 Queen Street) which is a modern, neon lights with smoking sake test tubes kinda place.
Fancy tapas? Cafe Andaluz is a consistently good Spanish small restaurant chain in Scotland.
If you prefer some pizza, Nonna Said (26 Candleriggs) does Napoli style pizza and frozen cocktails if starting early…
Or hold off for lunch until you hit the West End.
Afternoon Itinerary
Enjoy lunch at one of the many cafes/pubs such as Hillhead Bookclub or Hanoi Bike Shop.
Walk through Ashton Lane to University Avenue aiming for the University of Glasgow’s cloisters for Hogwarts vibes.
Head down the hill and take a right to Kelvin Way where you will find the Kelvingrove Museum.
Browse the 22 galleries including work by Charles Rennie Mackintosh, Salvador Dali and my favourite, the Floating Heads by Sophie Caves. It’s free to enter by the way.
Love tea? Don’t miss Tchai Ovna (42 Otago Lane).
A tea-hut going strong since the year 2000. I used to spend a lot of time here when I studied at Glasgow Uni.
Take a stroll through Kelvingrove Park then if hungry/thirsty, dine/drink at Lebowskis, White Russians are a must!
If visiting over the weekend, reserve a spot at Dockyard Social for truck food and booze.
Locker 1012 is a pink cafe that sells crazily good cakes.
Alternatively if finished before 15:30, head back into town for tea and cakes at the Willow Tearooms which closes at 16:00.
Staying around to go to ‘the dancing’?

Final Words
So as you can see, Glasgow in a day really is a challenge but it is a nice taste of what the city has to offer.
As we say in Scotland, haste ye back – and I’m confident you will return for more because Glasgow’s miles better, a reference to the 80s Glasgow tourism campaign.
Iona of my heart, Iona of my love. While there are only a handful of things to do on Iona, the pace on this 3-mile long island is slow and the scenery is stunning. Whether visiting as part of a Staffa tour, day trip from Mull, to stay on the island for a couple of nights, or as part of a pilgrimage, our Iona itinerary details what to do, places to eat, where to stay and how to get there so all you need to do is make bookings and enjoy your West Coast of Scotland trip.
Things to do in Iona
1. Enjoy the Ferry Ride from Mull
The starting point for your trip to Iona will be from Fionnphort in the south of the Isle of Mull.
Since no cars are permitted on the Inner Hebrides island of Iona, there is a car park to leave your car or camper at (fee-paying), a pub, public toilets and a beach.
If you are hungry after the one hour drive from Craignure or the 1.5 hour trip from Tobermory, you can get a snack at the harbour cafe or fresh fish at The Creel kiosk which also has outdoor seating.
Getting to Iona
There are a few ways to get over to Iona, the birthplace of Christianity.
Firstly you can visit as part of a Staffa Day tour where you get off at Iona and make your own way back to Mull using the CalMac ferry service.
Staffa is well worth a trip to see the geological wonder which appears in poetry and music, Fingal’s Cave.
If you are planning a visit between May and August you will be in for a chance of seeing puffins on the cliff at Staffa!
You can read all about this 3-hour trip from Mull on our Mull travel guide.
You can also travel independently using the CalMac ferry which takes 10 minutes to cross between islands and costs a couple of pounds.
See CalMac’s website for the most up-to-date details and times.
Alternatively, if you don’t want to drive around the island yourself and prefer a guide to organise everything for you check out this 5-day tour of Mull, Iona and Skye which leaves from Edinburgh or this 3-day tour which focuses on just Iona and Mull.
2. Take a Tour of Iona Abbey and See St Oran’s Chapel
The most popular thing to do on Iona is a tour of the Abbey.
When you dock, follow the signs to Iona Abbey and St Oran’s Chapel to see the traditional resting place of kings.
It is said that 51 kings are buried on Iona, 48 of whom were Scottish.
The original Iona Abbey is thought to date back to AD 563 and was founded by a monk, St Columba, and his Irish followers.
One of which was his friend Oran and none of which would have been women or cows since they were both banished.
Women were sent to Eilean nam Ban before they could cause mischief, which meant the men who built the first abbey on Iona had to live on the island without their wives.
Another unusual request during the construction was for a live body to be buried at the abbey.
A few days after the burial, Columba asked to see Oran’s face again, he was uncovered and surprisingly found alive.
Oran was muttering blasphemy so Columba saw that his death by suffocation using soil was completed.
You can visit St Oran’s Chapel for free however, the redeveloped Iona Abbey has to be booked in advance.
3. St Oran’s Chapel & Reilig Odhráin
The 12th-century St Oran’s Chapel is the oldest intact standing structure on the island. Inside you can view carved slabs.
Next to the chapel is Sraid nam Marbh or The Street of The Dead where the Reilig Odhráin graveyard is located.
It is difficult to read many of the graves but clan chiefs and kings are buried here.
Some tombstones are now located inside the abbey.
4. White Strand of the Monks Beach
There is a series of white sand beaches and dunes past Iona Abbey in the north of the island which unfortunately we didn’t have time to visit.
Traigh Bhan Nam Monach or White Strands of the Monksin the northeast is where monks who resided on Iona were massacred by Vikings.
It is also a muse for many artists.
Let us know in the comments if you make it there.
5. See the MacLeod Family Home from the Outside
Close to Iona Abbey is a house with an arched porch and well manicured garden.
At the gate of the garden you will find a plaque detailing information about the family who occupied the house;
Lorna and Reverend George MacLeod are the historic residents known for building the Iona Community.
George was a social reformer from Govan in Glasgow who moved to Iona to reconstruct the abbey with a team of ministers and tradespeople who worked and worshipped together.
Many others joined them thus creating the community that supports all people that you will find on Iona today.
6. Buy Whisky and Souvenirs at St Columba Larder
St Columba Larder is a modern store that sells Scottish crafts, art, artisan food and alcohol.
With a particular focus on island produce, you can buy St Columba whisky, gin, Isle of Mull seaweed and organic vegetables.
Hot drinks and cakes are also available to take out.
7. Quintessential St Columba Hotel Afternoon Teas
Evaluate your morning over an afternoon tea at Iona’s St Columba Hotel and restaurant.
One of the three places to eat on Iona, St Columba Hotel takes pride in its plates being packed with homegrown, organic food from their garden.
This is interesting as it is well documented that the monks who lived on Iona found cultivating food a challenge!
Vegan options are available on the daily menu.
Argyll Hotel and Martyrs Bay Restaurant are the other restaurants serving lunch and dinner. There is also a well-stocked SPAR store.
Note: Some restaurants on Scotland’s islands close between lunch and dinner.
8. Scenic Drinks in St Columbia Hotel Gardens
In front of the hotel is a stretch of land with benches perfect for afternoon pints and views over the Sound of Iona.
The Quiet Garden is free for visitors to enter if you need 10 minutes to yourself.
9. Shop at St Columba Steadings
Across the road from St Columba Hotel, you will find an attractive steading which is home to the contemporary jeweller, Aosdana Gallery and Oran Creative Crafts.
10. Observe Iona Nunnery
Close to the pier is the remains of one of the Augustinian Nunneries in Scotland.
Constructed in the 13th century, the Iona Nunnery overlooks St Ronan’s Bay and has done so for over 350 years.
The women who lived here did so for many reasons, such as they were unmarried daughters, widows, illegitimate children and estranged wives.
Seems ironic now we know that Columba didn’t allow women on Iona during his time!
Look out for a potential weathered ‘Sheela na gig‘ or ‘Sheila/Old Hag of the Breasts’ which is a carving of a woman with her legs open and an exaggerated vulva.
11. Pick Up a Coffee at Iona Craft Shop
Iona Craft Shop has unique souvenirs and toys as well as a small coffee menu for take out.
If you are looking for knitwear, this shop is a great option as it has a variety of items from slippers to blankets.
Established in 1965, this seasonal gift shop has been transformed into a craft network which nods to Iona’s cultural importance and history.
I picked up an attractive towel that says “Iona of my heart, Iona of my love” a quote by St Columba for my office.
There are so many things to do on the Isle of Mull it deserves more time than a quick hop off during a ‘Three Islands Tour’! With mountains akin to Glencoe, shorelines as stunning as Seychelles and colourful buildings like Skye, this Inner Hebrides island is a popular choice for holidaymakers in Scotland and rightfully so!
Our guide details the best things to do in Mull with a car or camper, how to get there, where to eat, where to stay and two easy, popular island hops that are unmissable, so be sure to make space for them on your West Coast Scotland itinerary.
Things to do in Mull
1. Be a Tourist in Tobermory
What’s the story?!
If your first point of interest is Tobermory, then you can’t miss Main Street with its multi-coloured buildings popping along the seafront.
Here you will find pubs, restaurants and well-stocked independent shops such as Tobermory Stores which has a better vegan selection than the whole of my home region, Fife.
There is also a handful of crafts shops if you want to pick up a souvenir that the receiver will actually like!
Look out for the unique cherub on the seafront.
By the water and next to the town clock, you will see a huge line of hungry visitors waiting on their Fisherman’s Pier fresh fish and chip van order.
If you don’t fancy fish, Tobermory has a few dining options to choose from.
I recommend Spice of Mull if you are looking for a curry, which Craig always is.
A starter, two curries, shared rice, naan and an Irn Bru came to £40.
If you prefer a meal or drink with a view, Macgochans serves pub grub on its outside deck with views over the water.
The Gallery Cafe is also a nice spot for a sunny day drink; be sure to take a look at the stunning interior of this old church building.
2. Treat Yourself to Isle of Mull Ice Cream
The next biggest line is for the Isle of Mull Ice Cream shop.
Take your cone or tub to the harbour to watch the tour boats come in.
You can do a day tour to Staffa and the Treshnish Isles, but we opted for the Staff tour leaving from Fionnphort in the south so we could also visit Iona.
Keep reading to find out more.
3. Visit Tobermory Distillery to Taste Isle of Mull Whisky
One of the most striking buildings in Tobermory is the Distillery.
Guided tours take you around the island’s only distillery, which was established in 1798, making it one of the oldest commercial distilleries in Scotland.
Onsite two whiskies are made, a non-peated Tobermory and a heavily-peated Ledaig.
This Mull tourist attraction also produces gin, so if you prefer to learn about this phenomenon in Scotland, check out the gin tour options.
Next to Tobermory Distillery is the Post Office which has had a bright paint job to match the pastel-coloured buildings along the street.
4. Tobermory Lighthouse
We only managed to see Rubha nan Gall, Tobermory Lighthouse from the ferry ride on the way to Oban but there is a recommended 3.5-mile hike if you can set aside 1.5-2 hours.
Keep an eye out for otters and wave over to Ardnamurchan if you do this hike.
5. Enjoy Coffee at the Isle of Mull Cheese Glass Barn
Nestled among the farmlands of the B8073, Sgriob-ruadh Farm is home to the Insta-famous Isle of Mull glass barn cafe.
Look out for those floor to ceiling windows, lush greenery and rustic decor; what’s not for your camera to like!
We popped by for a scenic coffee and couldn’t resist a Nutella swirl to accompany the hot beverages.
One tea, one coffee and one tasty chocolate pastry cost £11.90.
Surrounded by shrubbery and entertained by the cafe dog, this slow breakfast was one of the highlights of our Mull trip.
Obviously, if you want to pick up some Isle of Mull cheese this is the place to do it.
They have a farm shop inside the glass barn, so if you just want to have a look at the cafe without sitting for coffee, you can pick up the famous cheese here then head out.
Look above your head as you pay. Can you guess what the hanging structure is?
The next tips on what to do in Mull are outside of the main area in Tobermory so here is a map to help navigate.
First, we head to Devaig and Calgary Bay then over to Craignure before driving south to catch the ferry to Staffa and Iona from Fionnphort.
6. Swim at Calgary Bay
When people ask about Tobermory Beach they tend to be referring to the most popular bay on the island, Calgary Bay.
This huge, sandy beach is popular with families, dogs, water sports enthusiasts and visitors.
I swam in the clear sea and it was… cold. As to be expected!
There are a number of car parks close to Calgary Bay.
There is one across the road from Calgary Art in Nature. See below for more information on this art trail.
Another can be found at the Calgary Bay Farmhouse. Both are about a 5-minute walk to the beach.
There is also a car park near the public toilets which doubles up as a wild camping campsitefor cars only.
The most popular car park is the one with direct access to the beach next to this sweet treat…
7. Enjoy Ice Cream at Robin’s Boat
Robin’s Boat kiosk sells Isle of Mull Ice Cream at the edge of Calgary Bay and is made from a real boat!
There is also a board outlining the wildlife that has been spotted in the area recently.
8. Wander Through Woods at Calgary Art in Nature
Just before you enter Calgary Bay you will see a wicker figure with birds welcoming you to an art trail in the woodlands called Calgary Art in Nature.
This donation-based art walk includes mosaics, wooden structures and a flying fox!
You also get incredible views over Calgary Bay from the top of the walk.
9. Check Out Other Isle of Mull Beaches
If beach life is your kind of trip there are other beaches aside from the most photographed, Calgary Bay.
Craignure Bay is located on the east coast of the island.
If you stay at Shieling Campsite at Craignure you will have access to your own pebbled beach to watch sunsets like these pictured below.
You can also set off with your kayaks from this point.
In the south, Fionnphort Beach is the first, among many, things you’ll be amazed at during a day trip to Staffa and/or Iona.
See below for full details about this jam-packed day trip from Mull.
A cluster of houses sits at the top of the beach and sheep casually hang around the car park.
There is a pub across the road from the car park and The Creel seafood kiosk sells take out food and offer outdoor seating at the harbour.
There are coin-operated public toilets across from The Creel.
10. Buy Cakes at Bus Stop Bakes
Pick up some fresh cakes and scones at the pop-up Bus Stop Bakes on the road out of Calgary Bay.
This kiosk works on an honesty payment system so you will need coins.
11. Enjoy the Ride Between Calgary Bay and Tobermory
If you like driving the Bealach Na Ba in the Highlands, you’ll love the road between Calgary Bay and Tobermory.
This route has hairpin vibes without a cliff drop!
There’s a viewpoint at the top of the hill at Dervaig where you can take a breather.
12. Aros Park
If driving between Tobermory and Craignure be sure to set aside time to visit Aros Park.
There is a quick yet rewarding 30-minute stroll around Lochan a Ghurrabain which looks like Canada from one side and Japan on the other.
This isn’t the only Mull hike in the area.
If you have more time you can do the Waterfall Trail in the park or Coastal Trail to Tobermory.
There is free parking and a BBQ area which is also free for visitors to use.
Back on the road driving from Aros Park to Craignure, look out for light aircraft soaring above.
13. Cakes at Arlene’s in Craignure
We were intrigued to try Arlene’s at Craignure because a friend told us the food is superb but reviews always mention how crabbit the person behind the register can be!
Well, that member of staff must have been on their day off, twice, because the staff member who served us both days was bubbly and welcoming.
During our first visit, we bought two hot drinks, a breakfast roll and two cakes (£11.30) and ate them by the port watching the huge CalMac ferry beasts come in.
On our way out of Mull, we got sandwiches and Isle of Mull Ice Cream from Arlene’s.
I couldn’t decide between flavours so the friendly server gave me half and half.
Here is a slightly melted version!
The Craignure Ferry Terminal, where you exchange your voucher for tickets, is located near Alrene’s.
There is also a free public toilet.
If you are looking for a sit-down meal, the Craignure Inn does decent pub grub with outdoor and inside seating.
This is very close to Shieling Campsite where we stayed two nights.
Note: Some rural restaurants close their kitchen between lunch and dinner.
14. Duart Castle
If you are taking the ferry from Craignure to Oban, you will pass Duart Castle on the right-hand side and Tobermory Lighthouse on the left.
On dry land, you can visit this 700-year-old home to Clan MacLean and its tearooms.
Visitors can access The Great Hall, State Bedrooms, and learn more at the clan exhibition.
Duart Castle features in the 1999 film Entrapment, starring Sean Connery and Catherine Zeta-Jones.
15. Enjoy a Unique Coffee at Pennyghael
There’s nothing unusual about the mug of coffee you get from Pennyghael Stores, but there is something very special about the location where you can drink it.
Head down to the benches which overlook Loch Scridain and enjoy a scenic sip.
While driving south keep your eyes open for wildlife such as otters and deer.
The road from Craignure to Fionnphort takes a good hour and it is very pretty so consider lots of photo stops.
Remember to be cautious of passing places that allow drivers to pass on single track roads. See below for more details.
If heading to Fionnphort for an island-hopping day trip, leave plenty of time and use the bathroom before you set off.
16. Isle of Mull Tours to Staffa
There are two reasons for visiting the Isle of Staffa.
Firstly, to step inside the geological attraction, Fingal’s Cave, an uninhibited sea cave with an interesting backstory.
Secondly, to see the puffins which is a seasonal experience and we were lucky to catch them during our visit in June!
In addition to the above, you also get a free drop off at the Isle of Iona so factor time into your Mull itinerary to visit the birthplace of Christianity in Scotland.
You can only visit Staffa is by boat so pre-book your tour before you arrive.
17. Fingal’s Cave
If you’ve visited Kilt Rock/Mealt Falls on the Isle of Skye or Giants Causeway in Northern Ireland, you may be familiar with the story of Finn McCool which the cave is said to be named after.
This mythical Northern Irish giant also known as Finn MacCumhaill or Fionn Mac Cumhaill is said to have been in feuds with an even bigger but less intelligent giant from Scotland, Benandonner.
Their fight resulted in parts of the coast being torn up and thrown in the sea creating the basalt structure at the Giant’s Causeway in County Antrim, 82 miles from Staffa.
The more tours I do in Scotland, the more variations of this story I hear!
Novelist, playwright and poet, Sir Walter Scott was in awe of Fingal’s Cave stating it was ‘the most extraordinary place I ever beheld; it baffles all description’.
Fingal’s Cave has also inspired music.
The German composer Felix Mendelssohn visited in 1829 and composed The Hebrides Overture after this trip.
This feature made it a popular tourism destination.
Pink Floyd also have a song named Fingal’s Cave.
So how was the cave named after folklore formed?
Lava. But according to the NTS, not the same volcanic lava flow that created the Giant’s Causeway. The plot between Fingal and the sea cave thickens!
It was actually Mull’s volcano that shaped this 227-foot cavern 59 million years ago.
Visitors can walk along the lava-formed hexagonally jointed basalt to the mouth of the cave to test the acoustics.
If you are not comfortable with heights, you may not enjoy this tour of Staffa as both activities on the island are quite high up.
18. Puffins on Staffa
The best time to see the puffins on Staffa is between May and August and we had a solid 30 minutes watching the beautiful birds fly from the cliff and back to their nests.
When you get off the boat at Staffa, the tour guide recommends heading to Fingal’s Cave first then back to the drop off point to climb the stairs at the bottom of the hill.
From there you walk to the right for about 5 minutes until you see the pink marker which highlights the best spot for puffin watching.
Sit at the top of the cliff in silence and give your eyes time to adjust then you’ll see them!
Tiny puffins so close you won’t believe it.
It is memorising watching these wee creatures with their faces looking like they’ve been delicately decorated in theatrical make up.
They are super chill and seem to love the camera!
The tour itself lasts 3 hours with the option of being dropped off at Iona and making your own way back via CalMac ferry which only takes 10 minutes and costs a couple of pounds.
Since there are no cars on fragile Iona, only foot passengers are allowed.
Tip: Take lots of layers, the boat ride to Staffa is pretty breezy and goes on for 30 minutes!
19. Take the Ferry From Mull to Iona
You don’t have to do the Staffa tour to see the Isle of Iona.
There is a short CalMac ferry that runs throughout the day leaving from Fionnphort and arriving in Iona right next to the beach.
Iona is a truly special island.
It’s only 3 miles long and its most popular attractions are no more than a 10-minute walk from the harbour so if you are limited on time, you can still see what the island has on offer.
Things to see include Iona Abbey, St Oran’s Chapel, Iona Nunnery, St Columba’s Larder and a handful of gallery shops such as the Iona Craft Shop.
Mull is quite a large island so there are plenty of walks at various difficulty levels.
An easy hike around the loch at Aros Park is recommended for those with 30 minutes to spare.
A longer coastal walk from Aros Park to Tobermory would require transport being left at one side or a return walk.
A popular hike is a walk to Tobermory Lighthouse from Main Street.
Mull has its own Munro called Ben More at 966 m (3,169 ft), not to be confused with Ben More at Crianlarich.
The hike covers the distance 9.25km / 5.75 miles and takes around 5-6.5 hours starting at Dhiseig.
21. Take a Ride on the Isle of Mull Ferry To Ardnamurchan
Ardnamurchan, a hard word to say, an even harder place to leave!
However, if you are short on time and just want a taster of the peninsula which features the most westerly point in mainland Britain, you can get a ferry from Tobermory to Kilchoan that takes 35 minutes or from Fishnish to Lochaline in 20 minutes.
See CalMac’s website for the most up-to-date details and times.
Kilchoan is the closest entry point to the famous Ardnamurchan Lighthouse and Sanna Bay beach.
You will need transport to get to both.
If you have time to take a West Coast road trip, definitely add the Ardnamurchan Peninsula to your itinerary for relaxed hikes, stunning beaches and crowd-free beauty spots.
Mull is the second-largest island in the Inner-Hebrides on the West Coast of Scotland.
How To Get To Isle of Mull
You can get to the Isle of Mull in three ways.
Firstly, you can do the Three Islands Tours from Oban which is a whistle-stop tour of Mull, Staffa and Iona.
A nice intro to the area or taster for those short on time.
Secondly, you can arrive by ferry from Ardnamurchan (Kilchoan – Tobermory and Lochaline – Fishnish).
Finally, there is a ferry from Oban which arrives at Craignure (below) which is about a 30-minute drive to Tobermory.
Alternatively, if you don’t want to drive around the island yourself and prefer a guide to organise everything for you check out this 5-day tour of Mull, Iona and Skye which leaves from Edinburgh or this 3-day tour which focuses on just Iona and Mull.
Driving on Mull
We did this Mull road trip in our VW Crafter campervan and found the driving, for the most part, OK.
You will be driving on single-track ‘A’ roads which require the use of passing places where you pull over to let drivers on the other side get by.
These passing places can be identified by poles and this process will add time to your journey.
Island roads are used by locals who are going to work, shopping, leisure and who require access to roads to get to healthcare appointments.
Locals tend to know the roads better than you, so if you plan to drive at a slow pace let them pass when it’s safe to do so.
You can read more about single track roads and driving in Scotland in our road trip planning guide.
Isle of Mull Accommodation
There is no shortage of places to stay on Mull but hotels, self-catering holiday homes and campsites do get busy during the high season so book ahead to avoid disappointment.
Before booking accommodation, consider how you want to visit Mull.
Do you plan to stay in one location and do day trips?
Do you want to use public transport to get around or do you need parking?
Do you need to leave early for a ferry to Iona, Oban or Ardnamurchan which means staying close to the right port?
Isle of Mull Camping
While there are a good handful of Mull campsites, the island is not inundated with campers like say the North Coast 500 in the Highlands.
Tobermory Campsite: Nice shower set up with private toilet, all site mods, 30 minute walk to Tobermory
The Ardnamurchan Peninsula is a stunning, secluded and remote region on the West Coast of Scotland. Surrounded by hills and mountains including the UK’s biggest, Ben Nevis, discovering this lesser-known corner of the country will quickly become a Scotland bucket list highlight. This guide details the best things to do in Ardnamurchan with a car or camper, how to get there, where to eat, where to stay and an easy, popular island-hop that’s worth tacking on two days to your Scotland road trip for!
Fun Things to do in Ardnamurchan
1. Fill Up at the Most Scenic Petrol Station in Scotland
Is this the most scenic petrol station you’ve seen in Scotland or what?
Sure, the more remote you get, the more expensive fuel gets but we didn’t mind paying an extra penny for these views of Loch Sunart in Strontian.
Payment for fuel is made in the equally scenic Post Office shop to the left.
Look at the echoes of the hills in the background. So beautiful.
If stopping by to see Loch Sunart at dusk, come equipped to take on the West Coast midges!
2. Dine at Cafe Sunart (Centre) or Hotel Strontian
Swing by the Sunart Centre for lunch at Cafe Sunart or to pick up snacks from the local shop that sells everything.
Looking for dinner? Pre-book a table at Hotel Strontian which has views over Loch Sunart and a bar at the back.
I had the fish and chips.
Alternatively, enjoy a special lunch at the historically rich, Kilcamb Lodge Hotel.
In 1746, this luxury hotel was headquarters to 100+ militiamen who hunted the leaders of the Jacobite Rebellion.
In 1752, it became a garrison that enforced the prohibition of tartan.
Today it is a boutique hotel with a 3AA Rosette restaurant. Locals recommend the Sunday roast.
Close to the Sunart Cafe and Centre is a short 2.5 km/1.5 mile one-hour hike through a forest called Phemie’s Walk.
This woodland walk is named after a respected figure called Phemie Mackinnon who worked for the Forestry Commission.
You’ll come across a variety of trees including young native oak and old confiners.
At the top is a bench with views over Loch Sunart, the water you could canoe on if you follow our recommended Ardnamurchan activities!
4. Do a Canoe Trip at Loch Sunart
Consider a canoe ride on the mirror-like Loch Sunart surrounded by lush hills that once mined lead and the mineral, Strontianite which is named after the town Strontian.
This 3-hour activity is not only recommended to those who love water sports but also first-timers.
Canoeing is a pretty straightforward gateway sport to other water-based activities which require a little more coordination such as paddleboarding.
While we’ve water skied, white water rafted, kayaked and paddle boarded before, in Scotland and abroad, this was our first time canoeing and what a calming experience it was.
The adventure began with stylish waterproof trousers, which were provided by the company, and Dunlop wellies which we had packed ourselves.
We politely declined the waterproof tops as it was roasting hot, opting for just the lifejackets.
Then we walked to the canoe through the water, hence the need for the wellies.
I sat up front and Craig paddled from the back.
Over the next 2+ hours, we listened to our guide share local stories and facts about the sea life around us.
We also enjoyed moments of peace.
It is so quiet out there.
We paddled by a gaggle of geese, through Moon jellyfish which look psychedelic and Craig thinks he saw the notoriously dangerous, Lion’s Mane jellyfish.
We docked at a sandy beach to take a break and eat a snack to refuel for the paddle back.
The ride isn’t strenuous at all, the most energy you’ll exert is lifting the canoe out of the water and onto the beach.

5. Visit the Ariundle Centre for Food and History
If you are looking for an Aspen-feel breakfast then make sure the Ariundle Centre is on your list of things to do in Ardnamurchan.
This light and airy restaurant has two large rooms for indoor dining.
There are floor to ceiling windows that open up to the lush, green views which feel like Colombia, not the West Coast of Scotland!
There is also speedy WiFi and friendly service.
While the cafe decor is cosy, the real star of the show is the alfresco dining area, among the trees and manicured gardens.
We enjoyed sending pictures to family and friends back home, asking how their weekend breakfast was going. Mwahaha.
Breakfast is served on adorable plates and crockery.
Two breakfast rolls, a traybake and two hot drinks cost £14.
The Ariundle Centre isn’t just a cafe though!
There is a small museum with information about local mining history, farming and wool.
You can also buy the elusive Scottish animal, the haggis!
6. Singing Sands Beach and Hike
Sanna Bay is the beach on every visitor’s bucket list but the locals will tell you about a secret beach called Singing Sands.
To get to Singing Sands, you head through the greenest of drives and past scenes like this body of water below until you get to a small car park at Arivegaig.
The car park only accommodates six cars and there is limited room to turn so arrive early to avoid disappointment.
From the car park, walk through the woods for an hour until you see a sign for the beach.
From here, turn right and continue to walk through the trees.
Then you will be met by the stunning sand and sea with patches of turquoise.
It is quite windy but you can find alcoves to hide in for sunbathing.
To return to your car, just head back the way you came to the small car park and drive back along the road you arrived via.
Look out for deer and stags, we saw a stag roaming the gardens of Acharacle!
7. Try the Catch of the Day at Salen Hotel
Much of the Ardnamurchan experience is trying the local, seasonal food.
I went for the Loch Sunart prawns (£9.50) at the family-owned Salen Hotel which has indoor and outdoor seating and a small pub area in Salen.
8. Buy Local Produce at the Community Garden Shop
On the way to Sanna Bay, don’t blink or you will miss the cute Community Garden Shop.
Filled with fresh veg and cordial, just pop the correct money in the honesty box and sign the book to say what you’ve purchased.
You can either drive to the beach and park up or do the short hike from Portuairk, parking at the car park at the top of the hill across from the holiday homes, before the drive into the tiny village by the sea.
You can’t park in Portuairk so if you make it that far, do a turn and head back up the hill.
The black sign below is for the car park. The image to the right is your end destination, Sanna Bay.
The walk is well sign-posted at the start then it gets a little off-track as you walk along the path.
Wearing hiking boots as it can get quite boggy underfoot. Here’s our full hiking packing list for more gear tips.
We met two other couples and a local along the route so it’s likely you’ll bump into others if you go off-piste from these directions.
As suggested by a local out walking their dog, the hike only took us an hour but the walking route states to 2-3 hours.
The route is curricular which means you arrive and end at the same location at the car park.
This house signifies that you are nearly back at the starting point.
You might pass some sheep on your walk too!
10. Stunning Sanna Bay, Ardnamurchan
White sand for days and sea for miles, Sanna Bay is the most popular place to visit in Ardnamurchan and for good reason.
It is a hamlet in the Lochaber region of Ardnamurchan, home to sand dunes and a popular family day out in summer.
The weather can change pretty quickly on the coast.
When we first arrived, Sanna Bay was very overcast but by the time we set off to walk back, the skies were blue picking out the turquoise in the West Coast water.
Whether you drive or hike, or decide to stay on this beach, you won’t be disappointed.
11. Visit Ardnamurchan Distillery Shop
Scotland’s greenest distillery, Ardnamurchan is located at Glenbeg.
Although the company was established in 1826, this location didn’t actually open until 2014 when HRH Princess Royal, Anne, did the honours.
This new distillery prides itself on using modern whisky production which is carbon neutral.
For guilt-free liquid gold, check out the official website.
Have you even done a West Coast road trip if you’ve not island hopped?
There’s something absolutely magical about boarding at one destination and arriving at a new one and there are a few points around Ardnamurchan where you can sail with your vehicle or as a foot passenger to the Isle of Mull.
From Kilchoan you can take the 35-minute ferry ride to the colourful town of Tobermory.
There are public toilets and parking at the Kilchoan ferry port.
Note: The port is not next to Kilchoan Ferry Stores, don’t assume this as we did when we went to buy ice cream while waiting on the next ferry!
When on Mull you can drive south to Fionnphort and island-hop to Staffa to see the puffins and Iona, the sacred birthplace of Christianity.
Even in the Sunart (Strontian) area where we spent most of our Ardnamurchan itinerary, there are easy route options such as Phemie’s Walk (1 hour) and Ariundle Oakwoods Circular (1-2 hours).
The most popular hike is to Sanna Bay (image one below), and there is another beach walk to Singing Sands which takes an hour to get through a forest with loose rocks underfoot (image two below).
See above recommendations for full details.
Travel Information
Where is the Ardnamurchan Peninsula?
Ardnamurchan is a peninsula on the West Coast of Scotland.
Driving along its A861 road, you can see Fort William and Ben Nevis directly across the loch.
From the south and south/west of the region, you can catch a ferry to the Isle of Mull.
Ardnamurchan is where you will find the most westerly point in mainland Britain.
How do you get to Ardnamurchan?
Depending on where you want to start, you can reach Ardnamurchan in a variety of ways.
If you want to avoid ferries, head to Fort William and then drive around Loch Eil using the A830.
You’ll pass holiday homes, sheep and some alpacas if you keep an eye out to your right.
There is also a five-minute ferry across Loch Linnhe from Corran which is nine miles south of Fort William.
See CalMac’s website for the most up-to-date details and times.
If you are arriving from Mull, check out the ferry details from Lochaline and Kilchoan.

Ardnamurchan Map
Here’s a free map with all the suggestions mentioned in this guide to Ardnamurchan.
Driving Around Ardnamurchan
We did an Ardnamurchan road trip in our VW campervan and found the driving, for the most part, OK.
As with most remote parts of Scotland, you will be driving on single-track ‘A’ roads and must respect passing places where you pull over to let drivers on the other side get by.
Remember that these roads are used by locals who are going to work, shopping, leisure and who require access to roads to get to healthcare appointments.
Locals know the roads better than you so if you plan to drive at a slow pace let them pass when it’s safe to do so.
You can read more about single track roads and driving in Scotland in our road trip planning guide.
Even as experienced campervan drivers, we faced challenges driving.
Firstly, we forgot to fill up with fuel at Strontian so we had to turn back after breakfast at the Ariundle Centre before continuing around the peninsula.
However, this was a blessing as it meant I got to chat with the lovely workers at Scotland’s most scenic petrol station!
The second challenge was getting parked at Arivegaig (Singing Sands) as there are only six small spaces.
If they are full don’t try and drive further or may get stuck.
Anything bigger than a VW Crafter will struggle to get parked.
Similarly, when we returned to our camper after our Sana Bay hike, the small car park at Portuairk was full.
How do you say Ardnamurchan?
Ardnamurchan is pronounced aard·ner·muhr·kn. My Grandad’s top tip is to say it really fast.
Interestingly, we met quite a few expats with Yorkshire accents in Strontian!
Ardnamurchan Accommodation
When choosing where to stay in Ardnamurchan consider what your trip needs are.
For example, will you be dining out? Do you plan to stay in one area and day trip? Would you prefer to move around the region and stay in different parts of it? Do you need an early start to get the ferry to Fort William or Mull?
Ardnamurchan Campsites
We stayed at Sunart Camping which is a small, family-run campsite with pitches, hookups and glamping huts.
There is a separate toilet block for men and women with one shower in each.
You will need midge nets for your camper and face, welcome to the West Coast in summer!
This is the first time that we’ve worn face nets, it was 100% necessary and we were not alone in wearing them!
