What has been happening at White House Lodge, Isle of Coll?

We're half way through a busy season here on the island. We've received some excellent feedback, fantastic photos and great memories. With some of the best weather in years, our guests have had amazing holidays. Charlotte and I even managed to get a weeks holiday at White House Lodge in June, with the kids.We swam in the sea, flew kites on the beach and canoed with basking sharks - fabulous.

Enjoy an afternoon tea at Tigh Na Mara - Isle of Coll Guest House

This is a great idea when you are staying at White House Lodge and you are tired of feasting on fresh langoustines and  Grishipol Home Foods. Have a pot of tea or coffee, and something sweet, whilst sitting in the comfort of the Lounge or outside in the garden at Tigh Na Mara. This guest house is the first building you see when leaving the ferry terminal on Coll and has spectacular views towards Mull and the Treshnish Isles.  Every Thursday afternoon between 2pm and 5pm from May until the end of September.
