| Events in Glenforsa | 10 Places to Stay

Glenforsa is a village on the Isle Of Mull, part of the Inner Hebrides in Scotland. It has an Airstrip for private planes, and stunning scenery that delights the senses. Fishing will capture the magic of open spaces, with a chance of hooking Salmon or Trout in one of the Lochs and Rivers. Or why not find those sea legs and climb aboard a boat, whether it’s Angling or searching for the unforgettable sights of Whales, Dolphins, and Sharks. Of course there is the nearby port where the Oban Ferry can be taken from Craignure, or Tobermory whose colourful yachts and boats are mirrored with the softly painted pallet of houses that line the shore. Divers get excited with shipwrecks to explore and the hope of uncovering sunken treasure from a Galleon. There is the chance to tour the whisky Distillery, or follow in the footsteps of thousands of Pilgrims and visit the evocative ancient Isle of Iona, forty eight Scottish Kings are buried here, possibly the Museum will uncover the mysteries of St Columba before sailing across to the Abbey from Fionnphort. Younger visitors might enjoy the Open Farm where Go Karts and Animals are on offer. Glenforsa will tempt her visitor to linger much longer than they planned.
