The Burach reviews

9th April 2022    Katrina Gale

Fabulous cottage, great location and such a lovely place. Would highly recommend this place, well equipped and clean. We stayed for a week with our dog, Rocco. Enjoyed some wonderful walks and visits to the many beaches and coves, and then welcomed back to a warm, cosy cottage. We will definitely return.

We have been very cosy in this cottage. Highlights of the week were visits to Iona and Calgary Bay but every day has had it's memorable experiences. A walk to the lighthouse and Aros Park from Tobermory is beautiful, as is the walk to the coast and Dun Ara from Glengorm Castle. Thanks very much.

Thanks again for a great stay, your cottage is so comfortable. Loved visiting Iona, our first time and Calgary beach - lots of previous visits

What a great find this cottage was - home from home with all the amenities you need. The cottage is of a high standard which made our first trip to Mull even better. The rain only stopped us exploring on Wednesday, the rest of the week we dodged the showers! We did the lighthouse walk and Aros Park walk from Tobermory - very scenic - only regret was no sea eagles. We went to Ulva via the 'very' small ferry which was a good day out. Staffa trips took us to Staffa, Treshnish etc, saw dolphins, the last of the puffins and an amazing seal colony.
Best meal of the week - seafood platter and fried haggis at the Mishdish seafood restuarant - great food and service.
We loved Iona, it is definitely worth a visit. A long drive initially!
Thanks again for use of your cottage.

What a beautiful and cosy cottage to use as our base for exploring Mull - thank you so much! Such a stunning place and we really hope to be back again to visit the areas we haven't ticked off the list. Loved the lighthouse walk, Calgary Bay and Aros Park. Ebba the collie has had an absolute blast too, dashing around exploring plenty of woodland.

Amazing house. Pictures don’t do it justice - simply lovely inside. Everything you need for a lovely stay and instantly feels like home.

We have had the most wonderful week. The cottage was beautiful, clean, comfortable and very well equipped. Mull, as usual has provided us with a whole host of wonderful wildlife experiences, golden eagles, sea eagles, marsh harriers, short eared owls, otters, dolphins and puffins. We have paddled our canoe in lots of stunning waters. We are very sad to be leaving but will definitely be back. Food for the soul!

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay in your lovely cottage! The finish and decor of the cottage is beautiful and we had everything we needed. Our favourite restaurant was Cafe Fish and our best day was making it to the top of Ben More! We hope to come back in the near future.

Another great week in Tobermory, we have been visiting the island since 1996, love the place. This week was the wettest year we remember but still we have had a fabulous time, visiting Glengorm and walking to Bloody Bay, Calgary Bay was windy but still as beautiful. We have had some great meals at The Mish, Galleon Grill and of course the Chip Van. Thank you for a beautiful cosy cottage, we have loved it. We will definitely be back!

Enjoyed our stay in this lovely cottage. Everything you needed is there. Views down to the water are great. Mull is a great place to stay and we hope to return soon

Lovely cottage - the photo's don't do it justice and much bigger than we thought! Had a lovely week. The weather has been hit and miss but it's the highlands! Not been to Mull for 15 years and we won't leave it so long next time - love it here!

We've had a lovely week here. Weather changeable but it didn't stop us having some lovely walks. Went to Croig - lovely beaches. Iona's north beaches were lovely with amazing views. Had an amazing walk on the Treshnish headland where we were lucky enough to see seals, dolphins, a sea eagle and 2 golden eagles and then 3 deer on the hillside.

Had a relaxing week. The weather was better than it had said in the forecast and the sun tended to get out most afternoons. We booked the Mull Eagle watch and 2 enthusiastic girls showed us the white tailed eagle nest where the one young bird was still sitting although has actually fledged. We probably should have come at least a month earlier to see the parents. We also booked to see the whales. Unfortunately we got a call to cancel due to bad weather today. Such a shame as this is why we came here. The cottage is lovely, especially the bedroom. There is everything here that you need. I found the bed very comfortable and had a good nights sleep. Tobermory itself is very hilly, great going down, hard work coming back. The few shops and eateries we felt were very expaensive and it was mainly seafood based. We enjoyed a day trip to Oban, a runout to Calgary Bay around the top of the island then the folowing day we went south. Duart Castle is nice. Some very beautiful, rugged and scenic countryside - but Scotland will always have the best scenery in the world!

What a great find. A lovely cottage in a fantastic location. Explored Mull to the full with some stunning views. Would recommend this cottage to anybody, a lovely well kept place. Our dog Lucy also had a great time on her first holiday (she is 6 months old) and has loved the sea and the sand - a big bonus! Enjoy your time here, it's a special place.

Lovely place to stay, great base for our week. We've had a fab time, have done all the usual things - Iona, Staffa and the Treshnish Isles. Have seen the puffins along with a huge gathering of other sea birds, eagles of both kinds and bottle nosed dolphins. Wouldn't hesitate to come back and stay here.

18th May 2019    Mandy & Ian

Lovely sunny week on Mull! We were here for a wedding and the weather was perfect. Lots of wee trips around familiar places - lighthouse walk, Aros Park, Langamull, Calgary, Ulva and a wee bit of cycling on the bumpy roads. Best walk was at Glengorm, where we walked to left of the standing stones and out to a bit of headland with a cairn - there we saw around 20 seals, 2 otters and a dolphin. Enjoy your time on Mull.

Had a fantastic time as always. Lovely wee cottage and would book again. Love a pint in the Mishnish and my dog Sprockett enjoyed his 17th birthday here. Memories to treasure.

We loved the cottage and the island. The weather was pretty spectacular too. The Burach is a wonderful cottage in a fantastic location. We didn't want to leave!!! Those views from the kitchen...wow!!! Loved it and would definitely stay at the Burach if we come back to the Isle of Mull, which I really hope we do. The only problem was the shower - the water pressure was very low (although water pressure within other taps is fine) and there were only blinds in the bedroom which meant the light woke us up very early. Just 2 very small problems which I'm sure are no problem to fix. Didn't spoil our stay at the cottage though, everythng else was amazing, and we'd definitely come back. And thank you again for letting 2 dogs stay. We felt right at home.

Fantastic well equipped cottage in a great location. Recommend Treshnish Isles visit and Ulva.

Our stay was planned around a concert at An Tobar which was excellent. I lived in Tobermory for over 20 years and we have enjoyed spending time with friends, also the old familiar much loved dog walks. We yhave had a very happy week with sunshine every day. We hope you enjoy fabulous weather and happy holiday times too!
