Welcome to our island

The Isle of Luing has changed little over the past two hundred years, with white-washed quarriers cottages, lush pasture and abundant wildlife. The island is a tranquil paradise, with stunning views to Mull, Scarba, the Garvellachs and the many other small islands that surround it.

The islands charm lies in its natural beauty and unspoilt peaceful scenery which may be explored by car, bicycle or on foot.
