Midsummer Walking on Mull and Iona
June 20 – 27 2009
Explore the stunning scenery of south Mull’s mountains, coastlines and by-ways with experienced walking guide, Mike Hart

Enjoy walks designed to suit your own pace and level of fitness

Share the highlights of each day in relaxed style round a big table and good food

Mull is a walker’s paradise offering exhilarating mountain climbs, expansive views and some of the best opportunities for seeing wildlife in the UK. As well as Ben More, Mull’s one and only ‘Munro’, the week’s programme will include walks to the summits of lesser known, but equally fine hills in the south of Mull. For those who prefer walking at a lower level and at a more relaxed pace, attractive alternatives will be offered, all with a leader, visiting unfrequented beaches, standing stones and ruined villages.

Staffa House offers comfortable accommodation with four ensuite bedrooms, a guest lounge and a lovely conservatory where guests enjoy views over the Sound of Iona and delicious home-cooked meals. The house is run by Ali Holmes and Gillian Cummins who extend a warm welcome to all guests who pass their way and love to share with them their enthusiasm for the area.

Cost: £420.00, if sharing a room; £525.00 for single occupancy of a room

Numbers are limited - please apply early to express an interest
