Island hopping around Scotland in a camper van seems to be all the rage today: but when you try and cram so much in, it’s easy to miss things out. We much prefer to spend a whole week in one place, and Scotland’s islands have more than enough to keep you busy, with pristine beaches, scenic (if often boggy) hill walks and local producers offering tasty local cuisine (the seafood in particular is often outstanding).

Mable’s Cottage: dog friendly accommodation on Skye which isn’t astronomical in price is hard to come by. Mable’s cottage is a bit dated but very reasonably priced, a true home from home for the owners, and welcomes unlimited dogs free of charge with a large enclosed garden.
Brecks Self Catering: easily reached from the ferry terminal at St Margaret’s Hope, these comfortable and spacious barn conversions sleep 2-6 depending on the cottage, and welcome 2 dogs.
Driftwood Cottage: on a quiet farm track close to the Craignure ferry terminal, this cottage has two enclosed gardens and fantastic views over the Sound of Mull. Dated but comfortable, this cottage sleeps 4 with 2 dogs allowed.
