This B&B is right next to the ferry landing and right by a stunning part of the coastline. The staff was super friendly and helpful and I got a great tip for how to spend my afternoon from the woman who checked me in. I went to Port Bahn beach for my walk and it was stunning. I also hiked to St. Columba's bay which was a fabulous spiritual experience. I loved my stay here and wish I had booked more than one night. Iona is so much more special than Tobermory on the Isle of Mull. I loved having the cafe and bar right across the street to grab a bite. Breakfast was also super tasty. Try the cinnamon date scones!

The cottage is very comfortable and in a beautiful spot overlooking the water. It was fun to see the Highland cows and sheep that would pass by, and listen to all the birds.

    I loved Iona so much.

    I loved Iona so much. I wanted to stay for more than the overnight. Walking around the island, soaking in the energy of the land and the beauty of the coastline was magical. It was very inspiring. I wrote two songs while I was there and started several more. I loved my hike to Port Banh beach and St. Columba's Bay and walking around the town. I dined at the Argyll Hotel, which was excellent and had lunch at the Marty's Bay Cafe & Bar. I also did the Nature Adventure tour to Lunga and the Treshnish Islands and Staffa and it was an incredible experience. I highly recommend that.

    The Abbey and its history.

    The Abbey and its history. There are next to no cars on the island so you have to be equipped for the weather and long hikes. The people - both tourists and islanders are very friendly. The island is quite pristine - we didn't see any rubbish strewn about.

    I know the island well. It is truly a gem of the Hebrides.

    I know the island well. It is truly a gem of the Hebrides. Disappointed in the lack of hospitality offered post Abbey service in comparison with past visits. Had a meal at the Columba Hotel which wasn't great. Otherwise a great visit.

    The three nights we stayed in a comfortable and well...

    The three nights we stayed in a comfortable and well equipped’pod’ were amazing. Looking out over the Iona Abbey was the icing on the cake, sheltered at the foot of Iona’s highest hill. The north circular walk was amazing. Joining the pilgrims for a welcome service at the Abbey was really enjoyable and friendly. The island has so much history and culture to absorb. Peace touching earth. White sandy bays were stunning. Wide variety of affordable eating places and a well stocked Spar shop. Pizzas were heavenly! It did help to have wall to wall sunshine throughout our stay 🌞🙏🏻👍 The islanders are so welcoming.

    Iona is the most peaceful, beautiful and awe inspiring place. You need to go there and get lost in the hills, explore the whole perimeter and soak up the healing quality of this picturesque and wild place!

    Iona is like no place else on Earth.

    Iona is like no place else on Earth. Although steeped in religious history, you don't have to be a devout believer in anything to know that this is a special place. It gets you as soon as you step off the ferry - peace, calm, tranquility, call it what you like. You can't describe it, just feel it and it has to be experienced. Almost otherworldly, the island itself welcomes you and seems glad to see you. Try a candlelit evening service in the Abbey - everyone welcome, believer or not - and you are participating in a thousand years of ongoing history. Awe-inspiring.
