Collholidays supplies 2 high quality self catering properties on the Inner Hebridean Isle of Coll, situated 10 miles west of the isle of Mull and 3 miles from Tiree. Access is gained via Caledonain McBrayne (Calmac) ferries sailing out of Oban. The journey is superb taking you past Mull, Kerrera, Ardnamurchan peninsula, with views to Rhum (or Rum), Muck, Eigg, and Canna, with views southwards to the Treshnish Isles, Iona, Fingal's Cave and Staffa, with Islay and Jura visible on a clear day. The island is a ornithologists’s dream with a  Scottish RSPB reserve and rare birds such as corncrakes in profusion. The seas offer excellent sea angling, sea fishing, and deep sea fishing, being rich in food. This attracts basking sharks and Minke whales – the area is one of the best in the UK for whale-watching. Porpoises, dolphins and seals are also very common. There are charter boats in Oban on Tobermory, catering for diving parties and fishing gropous, especially giant barndoor skate.The main town/village is Arinagour, home to several dozen scots houses and the Coll Hotel, along with a bistro known as First port of Call. Scotland and the Western Isles are particularly beautiful area of the united kingdom, and our scottish self-catering holiday properties are amongst the best in the Hebrides, being furnished to Scottish Tourist Board 3 crowns or better .  Archaeologists, botanists, & celtic historians following Johnson & Boswell will all find something for them on the Isle-of- Coll. Anglers, ornithologists, canoeists, windsurfers, boaters and naturalists will all find peace and quiet with plenty of opportunities.
