About this property
Cragaig Bothy - remote off grid bothy with amazing sea views
Situated alone on the remote South side of the picturesque, community owned Isle of Ulva, Cragaig Bothy is available for visitors to the island.
This unique, off-grid property offers basic but cosy accommodation with no electricity, what it does have is the opportunity for living simply and taking in the magnificent views out over the sea to Iona, Staffa and the Treshnish Islands along with peace, quiet and solitude. The island is renowned for its stunning scenery, wildlife, flora and fauna – it is home to the majestic White-tailed Sea Eagle, Golden Eagles, Otters, Seals, Red Deer and much more.
There is no road to the bothy, so access is by foot after a two hour walk from the Ulva Ferry. It can also be reached by sea via kayak or boat. The water in the bothy runs directly from the hillside, it is not suitable for drinking, however there is a gas cooker which can be used for boiling water and cooking. There is a wood burning stove that in addition to heating the bothy, also heats the water for the taps and shower via a back boiler. Logs, kindling and firelighters are all provided.
There are no shops on the island so all supplies must be brought over from Mull and carried in. We do offer kit transportation if required. (Please note – availability of transportation not gauranteed)
