"The weather was excellent and the island
therefore looked stunning... the accommodation was clean and
perfect for our needs..."
(SO, Milngavie - 2010)
"Had a great weekend and the weather was
kind to us... hopefully will get another trip to Mull in the
near future..."
(SF, Hamilton - 2010)
"We've had a brilliant holiday. Mull
is a fantastic place and I wish we'd had longer to explore
everywhere. Back Brae Lodge has been a lovely place to stay.
The open plan
area
has been really cosy and a great place to relax after lots
of walking and occasional bouts of horizontal rain. It had
everything that we could possible need. When we get an opportunity
to return
to Mull we'll definitely book again... The flat was lovely
and was actually better equipped in some ways than our own
home, big TV with digital channels was a novelty for us... We've
really
appreciated the standard of the house and also all the handy
notes, local guides
and thoughtful homely touches..."
(CM, East Lothian - 2009) "We would like to say how much we enjoyed
our stay at Back Brae Lodge. The situation was ideal and we were
able to park within twenty yards of the house. The lodge was
very comfortable, cosy and warm and we would recommend it to
anyone who is going to Tobermory. The upstairs was spacious and
bright and the downstairs drying area was great..."
(BH, Birmingham - 2009) |
"Both my husband and I enjoyed our stay
in Back Brae Lodge... We were visiting Mull for a wedding at
Glengorm Castle, which was situated in a remote but beautiful
part of the island. Back Brae Lodge gave us that 'home from home'
feeling - although it was just my husband and myself, the apartment
could comfortably accommodate a family... Access to the local
shops and parking was very good... I have already recommended
staying at Back Brae Lodge to our family..."
(MS, Newcastle Upon Tyne - 2009)
"The house was very good - clean, well
designed, warm and very well equipped, both with 'domestic'
items and entertainment kit. Each day we returned with wet clothes
and boots but the drying area was ideal, everything being dry
for the next day, making it a good place to stay year-round.
Parking was not a problem... The flexibility to book it for
less
than a week (off-season) was one of the reasons we chose it,
as it allowed us to use a 5-day return ticket on the ferry
and made it a very reasonably-priced break... Since it was 30
years
since we last visited Mull, it was like a first visit and we
just loved it, so will be back... We would use Back Brae Lodge
if staying in Tobermory again, and would recommend it to others..."
(LH, Callander- 2009) "We had a fabulous time in Tobermory, thank you...
I would have no hesitation in recommending Back Brae Lodge
to anyone coming
to Mull..."
(RB, Lancashire - 2009)
"Got to say, its a cracking little house. Perfect for
what we needed. Very keen to come back
and stay here. Thank you very much..."

"We
had a great time! The apartment
was perfect. It is ideally located just off the Main Street
of Tobermory, which was very handy for popping down
to the Co-Op and the deli for provisions. The apartment
was in excellent condition and had lots of space. We visited
at Easter and the weather was amazing..."
(PN,
Sheffield - 2009)
"Really enjoyed the break, everything was fine - a lively
week... I'm sure we would look to come back to Mull again.
Many thanks..."
(KS, Sunderland - 2009)
"We are very happy to be here (great kitchen
and thankful to be so near the harbour)... everything looks great
and we are heading for the harbour to find something to eat (and
see the otter). Mull is sensationally beautiful..."
(RC, United States - 2009)
"We had a lovely holiday and the Lodge
suited our needs perfectly. Plenty of space and brilliant location..."

"We enjoyed staying at Back
Brae Lodge. It's definitely a great place to be in Tobermory,
in terms
of situation - you are close to the ferry, to to the 'promenade',
to everything... all necessary devices
and furnishings
are given, even up to a dishwasher and a washing machine. That
makes it really
perfect! The Lodge itself is very bright, clean, convenient -
a very nice atmosphere, absolutely suitable to feel at home.
Tobermory is really picturesque and nice, no 'trendies' or
'high society', just normal people, friendly,
warm, who like to spend their holidays peacefully... Thank you
so much for patiently
and kindly answering all our questions
and helping us to get things done and so to make us feel really
well here! It has been a wonderful
and great time at Back Brae Lodge, and we can only recommend that
accommodation for everyone
who wants to take a first glance to the Inner Hebrides and its
culture..."
(JM, Germany - 2009)
"Thanks very much for a great stay at Back
Brae Lodge... We particularly liked the big space of the open
plan upper floor - great if you decide to spend a rainy day at
home. We really appreciated all the home-from-home touches like
the books and the jigsaws. And the computer access was a bonus...
We'd happily stay at Back Brae Lodge again and will be recommending
it to friends..."

"We
have had a great week here, the flat is bang on location and
facility-wise... it's a great place and we would definitely
recommend to others..."
(SA, Newcastle - 2009)
"We
had a great stay at Back Brae Lodge and we would definitely
consider it again. We thought the house was really well-equipped
both
in terms of technology with the TV and broadband
and also in terms of games, books, kitchen equipment, hair
dryer etc. There would be plenty to keep you occupied
on a rainy day. The central location was ideal both in
terms of exploring the island but also proximity to shops
and pubs.
Whilst we had a bit of a sickly trip to Staffa, when we all
got back to the lodge we had a hot bath and a DVD and felt
much
better! I loved the modern interior and open plan kitchen/diner
which was really sociable and has made me really want to
do up our own house...!"
(SG, Fife - 2009) "We
all had a fantastic time and really enjoyed the peace and tranquility
of the island too. Back Brae Lodge itself was extremely cosy
and yet the lovely decor was modern and finished to a very high
standard indeed. We absolutely loved the fabulous open plan living
area which had everything you could possibly need at your fingertips.
The location of the house was perfect, being only a few steps
from the main street and the local shops. We would certainly
recommend both Back Brae Lodge and the island to friends and
family. Thank you for all your assistance in assuring our trip
was memorable and pleasant..."

"Our
stay was very enjoyable, the highlight being seeing an otter
in Tobermory! The house was very nice and we have no complaints...
everything was great and we would certainly come again..."
(SL, Lancashire - 2009)
"I
go away fairly often but generally stay in hotels - staying
at Back Brae Lodge has changed my opinion of self catering
breaks completely. Had everything you could have wished for,
apartment was very well equipped, immaculately clean, very
spacious and extremely well presented, the double bed even
more comfortable than the one we have at home. Would have
been more than happy to stay longer. Have never been to Mull
before
but will definitely be coming back (going to do the whale
watching that we didn't have time for)..."
(RA, Leeds - 2009)
"Thank
you very much for letting us stay at Back Brae Lodge. We
found it ideal
for what we wanted. Plenty of room, clean and modern amenities,
a proper home from home.
We saw all the island during our stay and travelled as far as
Iona... I cannot think of anything you could change to make
it a more
enjoyable location... Again, thanks, and we will be back
in a couple of years, I promise...."
(PE, Blackpool - 2009)
"Absolutely
brilliant location to stay. Right in the heart of a very attractive
small town, on top of the water front and close to all services.
Tobermory is a beautiful place - with welcoming restaurants and
bars, and very friendly locals. Back Brae Lodge itself is a well
designed, modern open-planned conversion which we found attractive,
very flexible, easy to live in... Would we book it again, recommend
it to family and friends? Most definitely! What could be better...?"
(LH, Gloucestershire - 2008)
"We
have been most impressed with the place and your information
pack. We have really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely
recommend it to others..."
(LW, Surrey - 2009) |

"Certainly
happy to give a ringing endorsement to the lovely house at
Back Brae Lodge. It was a great surprise to find it was so
spacious inside - a real tardis and everything was a very high
standard... I do hope we get a chance to get back..."
(PM, Dorset - 2008)
"My
wife and I found the Back Brae Lodge and Tobermory experience to
be absolutely first rate. I have no doubts at all about wanting to
return, or in recommending it. We have so much enjoyed it - thank
you very much for this lovely house and the thoughtful preparation..." (JW,
Lanarkshire - 2008)
"Was
a great holiday, first class..."
(PM, Greenock - 2008)
"Fantastic,
1st class, couldn't
be better, will be back, dream holiday, thank you..."
(JM, Livingston - 2008)
"Would
be happy to stay again as the location is fab, next to The
Mishnish Hotel...!"
(LW, Lanarkshire - 2008)

"We
had a wonderful time in Tobermory, and Back Brae Lodge was
the perfect place for us to stay, we found everything we needed
there. We particularly liked the little homely touches like
the collection of children's programs on DVD and the book collection
that we would actually read. The collection of road maps was
also put to use exploring the island. The weather was particularly
cold and wet on the weekend we were there, but we felt truly
at home in Back Brae Lodge and did not mind being indoors.
The decor is tastefully modern but comfortable, and there was
plenty of space for our 22-month-old son to run around. We
will definitely be returning to Tobermory to stay at Back Brae
Lodge and we have already recommended it to our friends and
family..." (FM,
Edinburgh - 2008)
"We
all enjoyed our stay, Back Brae Lodge is a great place to
use to explore Mull and Ardnamurchan and
whilst we went to places mainly in the north of the island
we did make it as far as Iona as well..."
(JC, Buckinghamshire - 2008)
"Superb!
Fantastic location and accommodation - first class service
included, thank you! We had a great time,
thank you for providing us with such a wonderful place to stay..."
(MD, Lincolnshire - 2008)

"We
thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Back Brae Lodge. The apartment
was very well equipped and its location was near perfect. Tobermory
is a fantastic place, you can wander down Main Street browsing
the shops, or chill out in one of the traditional bars with a
locally produced whisky or ale. The food is superb too, from
fish to burgers there was something for everyone..."
(PW, Middlesbrough - 2008) |
"We
like the open plan and the use of space and the light modern
feel, also the games and books add a personal homely feel...
have connected easily to Internet using my own laptop. The lodge
is nice and warm and we like being close to all the amenities
in Tobermory. Having the phone is another plus... We would certainly
recommend it to others..."
(HW, Cumbria - 2008) |
"We
had a great time but then we are old Tobermory fans. Kids loved
the flat, all the modern aspects...the
island and town are the perfect holiday places, especially with
kids - safe, laid back, great little shops, local seafood...
older ones love the freedom to wander and explore by themselves,
younger ones love the beach, park, Open Farm... Calgary has to
be one of the top beaches in the world (though we did swim in
the rain!)... very partial to a game of Scrabble in the Mishnish
Hotel..."
(AS, Scottish Borders - 2008)

"The
house is terrific. Very central to Tobermory so my car has
been parked up all week! The accommodation
is very spacious, clean, warm and has everything within the property
to make it a proper home from home. It is ideal for a family
or for a group of friends. The neighbours are very friendly and
I would have no hesitation to recommend your property to others
- only if we have first refusal if dates coincide that is! Thanks
again for your hospitality..."
(DM, Wigtownshire -

"I
would like to thank you for providing such a fine little gem
of a house so close to everything we needed. I
have visited Tobermory on quite a few occasions and have to say
I may not stay 'up the hill' again. We found everything to
our liking,
from the modern easy-to-use kitchen appliances to the slightly
more complicated audio-visual box in the corner... We will
recommend Back
Brae to all relatives and friends, although fighting the urge to
keep this beauty to ourselves. Look forward to a return visit in
the near future."
(PM, North Lanarkshire - 2008)

"We
had a lovely stay in Mull and were delighted with the accommodation.
It was lovely having so much space (especially for drying our
walking gear) and the cottage was very well equipped. We particularly
appreciated the selection of maps, books and games.
We will be sure to keep you in mind for any future trips to
Mull..."
(AA, Aberdeen - 2008)
"The
house is fine, very comfy, spacious, warm and in an ideal location..."
