The two main castles on the Island are Torosay and Duart.

A walk round Torosay Castle gives an insight into the history of the elegant building and grounds. Torosay is surrounded by 12 acres (4.9 ha) of spectacular gardens including formal terraces laid out at the turn of the 20th century and attributed to Sir Robert Lorimer.

Duart Castle is a 13th Century castle famed for being the oldest lived-in castle on Mull, is the seat of the Clan MacLean, and has a lovely little tea shop – the scones come highly recommended.
