Corrachan Isle of Mull Self Catering Holdiay Cottage Dervaig

Corrachan Cottage is a traditional stone building situated in the conservation village of Dervaig on the Northwest coast of Isle of Mull.   It is a cosy and comfortable self catering cottage and will accommodate 4 people and a baby, with a double and twin bedroom and bathroom upstairs and a kitchen, sitting room and utility room downstairs. It is heated through out with oil fired central heating and a multi fuel stove in the sitting room.

Behind the cottage is a large garden providing a safe and secluded area for all the family. The cottage provides an ideal base for walking, bird watching, fishing, sea trips and wild life safaris.

The village of Dervaig has two shops, one with a post office, there is a pub that serves food and a 'two rosette' restaurant, a short walk away. There is a bus service to the main town of Tobermory. Within a five mile radius there are several good restaurants and a heritage centre where you can buy a cup of tea and a light snack,

At Calgary Beach there is a gallery which also serves teas and light meals. The gallery will also provide you with information for the Woodland Walk, which incorporates interesting works of art and a fabulous view over the beach.

Dervaig is a traditional looking village and was originally built to house the workers on the nearby estate during the late 18C but was more or less 'cleared' in later years. In more recent times the number of houses has increased all over the island providing a steady income for many people in a number of ways. Dervaig has vibrant community spirit where the local people are keen to include visitors in all events.

Paintings and other artwork by local artists are displayed and you may purchase the exhibits if you wish.

Calgary Wood
This is not a truly natural wood. You will see great beauty of nature in the rocks, trees, flowers, in the sea, in sunshine and shadows. And yet the trees were planted and tended, people have worked the wood and surrounding land for hundreds of years. What we see now is a product of both nature and of man's efforts, a working environment, a cultural landscape.

Mull Little Theatre
This world famous theatre is the longest established professional theatre in the Highlands and Islands (1966), it’s one of the oldest touring theatre companies in Scotland, and is the only company in the area to have its own venue. The theatre is situated at the rear of the property in the grounds of the Druimard Hotel.
