Location
Suil Na Mara is set in a peaceful and scenic rural location on the iconic island of Iona, close to both the village and the world-famous Iona Abbey.
The ferry service from Fionnphort on the Isle of Mull to Iona operates regularly and takes just ten minutes. Iona supports a lively and thriving resident community and attracts thousands of visitors and tourists every year, keen to follow in the footsteps of St Columba. They are also drawn by the peace and tranquillity of the abbey and its environs, as well as the varied wildlife, the beauty of the landscape and the many secluded, sandy beaches. With the number of vehicles on the island restricted by permit, and no crime to speak of, Iona is a wonderful, safe environment for children and adults alike.
The island has a well-stocked general store as well as a number of other shops and businesses catering to locals and tourists providing general provisions, bicycle hire, souvenirs and food and drink. There is also a small post office, library, primary school, village hall, two hotels together with a restaurant/bar and various places of worship.
The second largest of the Inner Hebrides, Mull is a highly accessible island, being reached by a 45 minute vehicular ferry from Oban. Services from Lochaline on Morvern and Kilchoan on the Ardnamurchan peninsula are also available. Local bus services covering the island are operated by West Coast Motors and there is a small airstrip at Glenforsa suitable for private aircraft. A main line train service operates from Glasgow to Oban, with most trains connecting with the ferry.
