Award-Winning Restaurant
Pennygate Lodge's restaurant serves local Scottish cuisine crafted from handcrafted local products and seasonal ingredients. Head chef Pauline creates dishes such as venison wellington, scallops, and salmon tartar, all sourced from the island. The intimate dining room seats only six tables, and the bar offers a selection of local gin and whisky along with special diet menus.
Accommodations
Each of the six rooms is named after a notable Isle of Mull location-Torosay, Calgary, Iona, Duart, Staffa, or Ulva-and features a king-size or super king-size bed. En-suite bathrooms include top-of-the-range fixtures, with some rooms offering a freestanding bath overlooking Craignure Bay. The guest lounge provides scenic harbour views, and the property is set within beautiful gardens designed by a landscape architect co-host.
Location & Nearby Attractions
The lodge sits a five-minute walk from the Craignure ferry terminal, providing direct access to Oban and onward island exploration. Nearby attractions include Duart Castle with historic tours, Eas Fors waterfall, and the coastal town of Tobermory with local shops. Hiking trails start directly from the lodge, including a route to Scallastle Forest waterfalls.
Wellness & Activities

The large garden with sea views provides an outdoor space for relaxation and fitness activities. Guests can also pack lunches from the hotel for day hikes or explore the island's nature trails and wildlife tours.
