Camus Cuin Reviews

Second stay at Camus and it was as perfect as we remembered. We had a wonderful week relaxing, which is very easy to do at Camus. This place has everything you could want, excellent location, shop and pub in easy walking distance and the view is spectacular. We didn’t want to leave and looking forward to going back next year! Extra thanks to Iain and Michelle for letting us in early due to our ferry being changed, was very much appreciated.

Camus Cuin is very special. The house has everything that one could need in terms of kitchen equipment and facilities. Wonderful location. Over the years we have regularly seen otters, white tailed eagles, golden eagles and a huge variety of other birds, plus a lone deer occasionally, looking at us over the fence, all from the cottage. Once I saw an Osprey catching a fish on the Loch. Great central heating, brilliant woodburner. Pub and good shop a short walk away. What more could you want on Mull? Our 6th visit to Camus Cuin. Won't be our last!

Our first visit to Mull and Camus Cuin was the perfect base from which to explore. Amazing views out over the Loch, great place to spot otters, sea eagles and much more. The property was well equipped and had everything we needed. The local PO had a good variety of produce. We had a fantastic time.

1st time visit to mull & the holiday company were superb from booking to staying…
Camus Cuin is perfect in every way! Thank you for a wonderful stay, immaculate lodge fully equipped with everything you need & a fab walking distance to village shop & lovely local bar where everyone is so friendly!
The views from the lodge breathtaking & wildlife in abundance…Otter on Loch just outside our window was a dream come true!
The lodge perfectly situated reaching all locations across Mull…Marked highlight - small boat trip to a little gem Isle of Ulva & Boathouse cafe a must for all!

An absolutely fabulous location and great view. Camus Cuin exceeded our expectations, with everything one could possibly need, and the most well-appointed kitchen I've ever seen! Spacious, airy and cozy at the same time. We'll be back!

Our 5th visit. Our home from home. Superb house, with everything you could possibly need. Wonderful location. If you spend enough time at the house (difficult to do when Mull has so much to offer) there's every chance of seeing White tails and otters as well has a wide variety of bird species. Ian and Michelle the owners are great. You won't see them unless you need them. Read earlier reviews for more info..no point me repeating it. I've lost count of how many cottages we've rented on Mull. Camus Cuin ranks amongst the very best.

Our second stay at Camus Cuin and it did not disappoint - we love it and hope to visit again.

An amazing place. Fantastic view, peaceful and calm. Clean and nicely decorated, super well equipped with everything you need. One of the best places we have ever stayed in - we didn’t want to leave! Mull is a magical island. Thank you:)

This is the most beautiful, spacious and comfortable cottage we have ever rented. Position outstanding with wildlife outside the windows. White tailed eagles seen from the house on two occasions along with multiple sitings of divers and mergansers. The bird feeders and rabbits were also a constant source of interest. Beautiful walks from the house and pub and restaurant and easy walk. The village shop was also an amazing alladins cave don't bother shopping before you arrive! A perfect spot don't change it we want to return!

Agree with all the other comments. A super, warm and spacious property in a stunning location. Very quiet and private, but only a 10 minute walk to the village shop which is very well stocked.
The walk from the door to Quinish Headland will reward you with fabulous views over towards the Isle of Skye. We were very lucky with the weather, wall to wall sunshine all week and flat calm on the loch. Lots of wildlife, including the local white tailed eagles which nest just across on the other side. Plus a otter with her cub catching crabs right in front of the lounge window.
Wonderful week.

House was amazing and really well equiped, can't fault anything at all! Spotlessly clean, comfy beds, great shower pressure, the views! Perfect base for exploring North and Central Mull. Walkable to very well stocked local shop and short drive to Tobermory, some very Beautiful beaches and lovely restaurant. We all loved our week here and will be back. Our 5 year old daughter especially loved the garden and watching all the bunnies and birds. Loved having the scope as well, spotted curlews, different types of guess and ducks and Jupitor one clear evening,otters and eagles hiding due to weather.

Lovely, comfortable and spacious cottage in beautiful location. Well equipped and warm. Telescope was greatly appreciated as so much to see on the sea loch outside. We also enjoyed viewing the garden bird feeder. We would love to return.

Our 4th visit..which tells you something! Awesome location, totally private and a wildlife hotspot. Shop within walking distance which is a great bonus. One of the very best on the island. We're returning in July.

Camus Cuin is the most perfect cottage! We have stayed in many Isle of Mull cottages and this totally exceeded our expectations. Camus itself was spotless, had everything we needed and provided a warm, cosy winter stay. The wildlife we saw from the cottage just can’t be beaten, daily otters, seals, and the best sighting we have had of a White Tailed Eagle, no need for binoculars as it literally outside the window! We didn’t want to leave this wonderful place and can’t wait to come back soon!

We had a wonderful time staying at Camus Cuin. The communication from the landlady was amazing and the house is beautiful with incredible views through the window and lovely local walks. The shop in Dervaig is fantastic and so well stocked too. We highly recommend this lovely home.

We have been holidaying on Mull for the last 30 years but this is the first time we have stayed in the Dervaig area. The bungalow is very comfortable, clean and in a wonderful location. It’s an ideal place to stay if you have a dog as there are many paths to walk. We would have definitely returned but with the no dogs policy we won’t be able to.

The property is superb. We spent many hours just looking at the loch from the windows and were rewarded with spots of otters and white tailed eagles. It’s perfectly furnished too. Plan to return some time.

We had a brilliant time, it was so relaxing and we got lucky with the weather. The cottage is really well equipped and had everything we needed, again, thank you both.

The house was even more than we had hoped for. So well maintained, comfortable and spacious. We loved sitting looking at the view and the stars at night….wow! While out and about on the island walking and wild life spotting we had very close encounters with white tailed and golden eagle, hen harrier, otter and a bottle nosed whale. We swam in the sea at Calgary Bay too! The shop at Dervaig is great and also used the coop at Tobermoray. Recommend the walk from the house to Quinnish point.

Our second visit here, this is a breathtaking cottage, the views over the loch, watching the otters, an osprey, and white tailed eagles, cannot be beaten. The cottage itself is comfortable, spacious, clean, and welcoming. The kitchen has everything you need, the garden is secure and well maintained. The location is wonderful for visiting the island, Dervaig has a great shop and pub, not too far from the Cheese factory for a great meal. I would highly recommend this cottage.

A natures lovers dream Otters seen almost daily on the loch and loads of different birds including a red Throated Diver that seemed to come back every day. The accommodation is first class with lots of space and a well equipped kitchen. Booked 18months ago an worth the wait. Highly recommended

Wonderful house, beautiful location overlooking the estuary. Loved watching the otter catching fish and the variety of bird life. Very quiet and peaceful. House has very comfortable and had everything we needed. Would love to come back.

Booked this nearly 18 months ago, it's so popular and I now know why.
The bungalow is outstanding, the place is so big, my knees ache from walking from one end to the other.
Very remote, The outlook could not be bettered, loads of wildlife to see.
A really comfortable place, wanted to stay but had to go home unfortunately.

Unfortunately, the weather was not wonderful which made us appreciate all the more the comfort and facilities of this wonderfully spacious home.

Outstanding. Our 3rd visit and everything is still immaculate. Lochside location wonderful. We were there during very cold weather and at times were too hot! Brilliant central heating. The log burner really pumps out heat and is really easy to light and maintain. Love Camus Cuin.

Beautiful, well appointed house with great views and in a lovely quiet location. One of our favourite walks was right on the doorstep which was a real bonus. The wildlife was great but didn't see the otter this time. We will be back.

Really nicely appointed cottage with a great attention to detail for comfort. Modern decor, furnishes etc give a huge boost to the sense of calm and space. Well positioned on the edge of Dervaig away from the main hustle and bustle, but close enough for convenience. A great size for a family or a couple alike. Well positioned for all that Mull has to offer, or for just switching off.

Beautiful spacious house with an enclosed garden (full of rabbits!) and fantastic views over the loch. We could have spent the whole week just looking out of the window. The weather wasn't great but that didn't matter. The village shop is a gem, the Piece Box and Balachroy great, and walks near and far. Calgary is always beautiful and Tobermory always fun. The only disappointment - no otter despite hours of watching!

We’ve just got back to home, after staying in this fantastic cottage. It was of the highest standard and can not fault it. We have already tried to book for next year but unfortunately the week we wanted was already booked! The walk on the doorstep was a joy to do everyday with our cocker spaniel. We saw an otter on the shore at the bottom of the garden and this was one of the many highlights of our trip as well as the fantastic weather.

We had a wonderful stay with other family members joining us for part of the week . The house was spotlessly clean bright and modern with amazing views over the Loch . We saw white tailed eagles every day from the house . The location was perfect for us with walks through the Quinish estate next to the house and the brilliant local pub a short walk away . The house had everything we could have wanted even a welcome gift on arrival . The highlight was an otter fishing in front of the house while the whole family watched , magical . Thankyou for a lovely stay .

A beautiful location, peaceful with wonderful views. The house is very spacious and well equipped with everything you could possible need. The log burning fire is a welcome sight after a long walk. Thank you for a wonderful stay x

Very comfortable warm house with loads of space inside & out. Michelle and Iain were very accomodating for anything extra that was needed (extra towels for a wild swim!) Mull is a beautiful place to visit and I would not hestitate to recommend Camus Cuin as a great base to explore the island from..

The house is lovely, comfortable , in a magnificent setting with superb views. There are plenty of walks from the doorstep and a well stocked shop just down the road. The wildlife watching was simply breathtaking. The log burner kept us toasty and was very welcome . We would love to visit again.

The house is amazing,the views are breathtaking , we loved it .we had lovely weather but for our last two days (we were there for 14 ) which was warm but misty. Golden Eagles flew past on most days as did Buzzards . Would highly recommend the local shop / post office it’s a pleasant walk or 2 mins by car .

We could not have wished for a better property to stop in for our holiday. The location was perfect and the weather was kind to us.
The wildlife was amazing from the window overlooking the loch, we watched ospreys catching fish and two young sea eagles regularly sat in the trees surrounding the cottage, otters were also spotted at the end of the loch.
The property was spotless and had everything you needed for a great holiday.
We will be back!

My family and I had an amazing holiday here. Camus Cuin has everything you need, is beautifully furnished and the location cannot be beaten. We spent many hours just looking out of the window at the wildlife. Our puppy had a wonderful time in the garden, the shore and the open plan house. She had a bit of a shock one morning when I let her out to be greeted by a red deer in the garden which promptly jumped over the fence. I would like to thank Michelle who came round to give us extra towels as I had incorrectly booked for two people not four! I cannot recommend this property enough.

We had a fantastic week. The view out of the living room is to die for, on our first day we found it difficult to leave. We saw otters feeding in the loch, so much wildlife - seal, herons, oystercatchers, deer, osprey, and the comical flotillas of goosanders. The last evening, we were mesmerised by a pair of white tailed sea eagles in the trees opposite. The property has everything you need and the bottle of wine and biscuits were much appreciated. We’ve never stayed in a better, more comfortable property with such fantastic wildlife visible from the living room. We want to visit again ASAP!

Fabulous house, wonderful location. Wish we had discovered Camus Cuin earlier. The loch in front of the house is a wildlife hotspot! White Tail heading south ( a pair nest on the Quinish estate not far away), being mobbed by gulls. 30 mins later a Golden Eagle heading north, being mobbed. Buzzards, Grebes and more. The star is the otters. Pass by every day. I had a magical 25 mins with one at close quarters from a natural "hide" by the water to the left of the blue dinghy. Hunted, came out of the water to eat and walked around, within 50 ft of me. Never knew I was there. Need to be back asap.

As keen birdwatchers, this is our 4th stay with Isle of Mull Cottages. All properties have been fantastic, but we all agree that Camus Cuin is the best so far. We are suckers for a house with a view and this view is exceptional. House is immaculate, spacious and private, but close to the shop/pub in Dervaig.
With one member of the group 8 months' pregnant we were restricted to doing a lot of our birdspotting from the garden. Nevertheless we enjoyed daily visits from the local buzzards (the tourists' eagle) and the otter in the loch below (early afternoon a good time to see him). Thankyou!

Extremely comfortable roomy property with stunning outlook and location. Golden eagles were daily visitors and deer on the opposite bank. Ideally situated for exploring the north of Mull. Excellent village shop and pub within easy walking distance. We had a holiday to remember.

Absolutely stunning spotless cottage. The views are amazing and such a beautiful island. Loch Buie is amazing and the costal path walk from Aros park to Tobermory is also a must. 2nd holiday to mull and will return. Would definitely stay here again xxx

Absolutely fantastic location. Amazing views from the living room and master bedroom, we saw deer, otters and seals from the comfort of the sofa!
The walk to Quinish point is well worth doing, just turn left out of the drive and keep going.
Dervaig is a great spot from which to explore the top half of the island.
We try and stay in a different location each time we visit Mull, this was our sixth time, but we would be very happy to stay here again, hopefully in less ‘locked down” times.

Stunning property, beautiful location, made for a perfect holiday. Looking out the lounge window, we saw an otter on the far shore which made our day.

Beautiful cottage with all the mod cons. Found the baking equipment and games great for wet weather entertainment of the grandkids. Owners were very thoughtful when the ferries were under warning because of the weather. We will certainly be back. Thank You

Everything we needed, superb location, stunning views, and fully equipped.

Fabulous cottage, fabulous location, will definitely be back to stay again.

A fantastic new property in a wonderful tranquil location overlooking the Loch.
Tawny owls hooting on a night and stags roaring on the hills opposite and an Aurora on our first night. What more could you want?
A large property full of creature comforts and a delightful area for sitting outside
Congratulations to the owners on completing a fantastic new project and creating Camus Cuin

A fabulous property in a perfect location. The owners really care for this home, and their guests too. We would absolutely stay again!

A beautiful, well appointed cottage in a delightfully remote location (yet close enough to a shop should you need it!). Newly renovated with all the mod cons you’ll need, the cottage is nicely centralised to explore Mull. The owners provided maps and walking guides of the area, and books, dvds and board games for if you’re relaxing indoors.
If you love wildlife, you’ll never leave the windows when you’re in the cottage, and the lack of light pollution in the area means you’ll be star gazing all night!
An excellent holiday let, so glad we found it.
