Mull Museum sits on Tobermory's Main Street and tells the story of the Isle of Mull through a small, volunteer-run collection built up since the 1970s. Inside you'll find extensive archives, a large reference library and an objects collection covering all aspects of island life, though only some items are on display at any one time. It's a fitting stop for anyone curious about local history, family research or the island's heritage. Entry is free, though donations are welcomed, and the museum is open Monday to Saturday, 11am to 4pm, from March to the end of October; email ahead if you'd like to use the library or archive. If you're staying in the Oban area, there are three bookable places to stay within five miles on BritStays.
