Fantastic view, excellent rooms, very friendly hosts, great breakfast, 50 yards to a very nice pub. The sun lounge overlooking the falls of Lora is the perfect place to read or relax in peace. The WIFI is very fast. We definitely recommend this place.

My husband and I spent two nights here in April '13. We had a room and sitting room overlooking the Falls of Lora, and access to a lively sunroom with the same view. It was just lovely to be there, looking out at the water and bridge, with Olga's home cooked treats, friendly advice on the area and a serene... More

We recently spent 1 night here. Would definitely recommend staying here.Room was clean and comfortable. It is close to Oban with a fabulous water view. Since they were not full, they were gracious to allow us to have breakfast in the conservatory.

We recently spent three nights at Strumhor and would strongly recommend it for B&B in this part of the West coast. The location and views are stunning, the hospitality great and it is a perfect base for exploring Mull and it's wildlife and some very good local gardens. Standards are excellent - a lovely room, enjoyable breakfasts, a super conservatory... More

My husband and I stayed for 2 nights as part of a short break to the West coast and cannot recommend Strumhor highly enough. We were warmly welcomed by Olga with tea/coffee and home-made muffins which was a great start to our stay! Our room (The Morven) was the smaller double, but was still very spacious. The decor was lovely... More

We'd booked two days sea kayaking with the Seafreedom Kayak company (based at Strumhor) & booked into the B&B for two nights - it was great to step out onto the lawn full of kayaks each morning! We had the larger room, Lorn which, for a B&B room was lovely and spacious, and the little loungy annex was a welcome... More
