    A wonderful cottage, spotlessly clean and comfortable. We were welcomed by the owner Carol, very friendly and sociable, who provided eggs for us, much appreciated. (We were most amused at the hens that wanderd free range outside.) Excellent shop in Salen and handy for Tobermory. Located well off-road, we heard no traffic noise. Ten out of ten, for everything.

    Prairie Cottage is in a great location for exploring the island and is well-equipped, clean, spacious and comfortable.
    The weather threw everything at us for the duration of our week - and it was great to come back and warm up by the fire and soak aching muscles in the bath! It’s a very cosy cottage within an easy distance of Salen’s very handy and well-stocked shop, and not too far from everything Tobermory has to offer. Would definitely recommend.

    We booked Prairie Cottage as seemed a convenient location for exploring Mull. And it was! The cottage was beautiful and very well equipped, nothing extra really needed to be brought. The free roaming hens was an added bonus for us. The area provided walks, a run and easy access to be a tourist. Shop in Salen very well stocked and the Coffee Pot provided a delicious lunch one day. Would definitely consider re-booking if a return trip to Mull was planned. Thank you Carol.

    Outstanding cottage in every way. Exceptionally clean and everything you need for a quiet restful stay. Lovely thought of fresh eggs, biscuits and flowers to greet you on arrival. Salen is a great area to stay to get about and our weather was perfect with sunshine most days across the week..

    Immaculate, well-equipped cottage with flowers, free range eggs and biscuits on arrival. Carol, the owner, is very friendly and helpful. A perfect quiet location, between Salen and Tobermory, with lovely walks just outside the front door. We absolutely fell in love with Mull and will return to Prairie Cottage in a heartbeat.

Superb location for discovering the delights of Mull. This is our second visit to Prairie Cottage and we’ve already booked again for next year.

    Easily the best UK holiday accommodation we have ever stayed in. Spotlessly clean, equipped with absolutely everything a person could possibly need, comfortable beds, friendly and helpful host on hand if needed but not intrusive and brilliant location for exploring Mull. Woodland walks directly across the road (great for morning power walks), Sound of Mull with water birds 5 minutes walk, local amenities in Salen (including fish & chips from Tastes of Mull), short drive from Tobermory. Absolutely nothing not to like. Highly recommend.

    Prairie Cottage is centrally located to visit all areas of Mull. A beautifully clean, well kept cottage. The owner is helpful, on hand next door if required, but not at all intrusive. Ideal for a couple, or with two children. We enjoyed excellent weather, but would choose this out of season as it would evidently be very cosy and has a porch area ideal for drying boots and walking gear.

    We had a lovely stay at the cottage. It was cosy, quiet and had everything we needed for our week of exploring Mull.
    Carol was a welcoming host and left delicious fresh eggs for us.
    The bedroom upstairs could have a bigger bed considering how spacious the room was. We ended up sleeping in separate rooms.
    Otherwise, a very pleasant stay.
    Thank you!

    Just returned from a fantastic week at Prairie Cottage. The location was perfect for us allowing to easily reach Tobermory, Ben More and all the other sights Mull has to offer. Carol made us feel very welcome and the cottage has everything you need. There isn’t anything Carol hasn’t thought about, making it truly a home away from home.

    Well equipped, clean, lovely cottage in a great location for walking out to Aros or over into the Loch Frisa forestry area. It was very warm and the shower is fab. Parking area and really nice inside. We had a great week - it was fairly wet so can't really comment on the outdoor bench/ sitting outside! Would absolutely go back.

    Had a lovely relaxing stay at Prairie Cottage. It is immaculate and well-equipped for home comfort. Lovely welcome gifts of flowers, fresh eggs, and biscuits & and Carol was available and helpful during our stay.
    The cottage is well located for exploring all parts of the Island, which we did. We loved Mull so much, my highlight was seeing a Golden Eagle, and we will definitely return - it is a magnificent and beautiful place, and was the perfect family time and rest.
    Thank you Carol for a lovely stay.

    What a lovely cottage, cosy and warm and so homely. It had everything we needed for our short winter break on Mull and I imagine it would be perfect for a family too, lots of room for safe outdoor play in the summer. It was just perfect, and in great location for exploring the island. No view to speak off but a only a walk away from the river estuary, Aros Castle and Loch Frisa so it didn't matter. Thank you Carol.

    This lovely cozy cottage is in a fabulous location, making trips around the island a breeze. The cottage is a new build, but done sympathetically so it blends with the style of the island, however it benefits from excellent modern insulation and heating. We had a very wet and windy week on Mull, but always looked forward to returning to the cottage with its wood burning stove and a hot bath, plus a good area for drying wet clothes. It is well equipped with kitchen utensils and the cooker is easy to use. Carol made us feel very welcome without being intrusive, and the hens were great fun. The birdlife immediately around the cottage is incredible....hen harriers, a sparrowhawk perching on the fence, treecreepers, goldcrests, swallows nesting......it was delightful. Thoroughly recommended.

    A friendly welcome to a neat and cosy cottage with everything you might need. A great location if you want to be relatively close to amenities but not too far away from anywhere you’d like to explore - Iona ferry is just over an hour with otters, stags and seals on the way. Highly recommended : )
