Even from afar Duart Castle dominates the Sound Of Mull. It beams from the edge of the Island. Make sure you drop in and visit to see just how magnificent it is up close and inside. We also have a white-tailed eagle nesting nearby which can be spotted on the drive up.

Whether it is by the single cannon looking down the Sound of Mull, in the Banqueting Hall, or in the Sea Room, Duart Castle could host that special day and what a magical backdrop it would make.

Maclean Pendant Cross. Made especially for us, this is a copy of the Macleans Cross on Iona. We used an engraving from a book at Duart, published in 1910 to work from. The cross is silver with the Edinburgh hallmark.

The Clan Motto - The greatest threat to stability within the clan was the relentless risk of attack. The Macleans fought numerous battles, becoming known for their honour and courage. Thus it was the motto ‘Virtue Mine Honour’ translating as ‘Virtue is the mark of my honour’.
