Tobermory is well known for its wonderful firework display over the harbour. Weather permitting of course, you’ll enjoy the spectacle from one of the best vantage points:
the Western Isles terrace or go down to the clock tower and join the throng.
New Years Day: Saturday 1st January 2011
A leisurely start to the day, with a buffet brunch served in the restaurant from 9.00 until 12.00. With a light lunch of soup, sandwiches and salads available in the Conservatory
between 12.00 and 5.00, you can take the day just as you find it.
Spend the afternoon at leisure, exploring our beautiful island or just pottering around the local countryside. Aros Park, the walk to the lighthouse or just sitting by the harbour,
there’s plenty so see and do.
Dinner is included in the evening so you can enjoy another delicious meal in our dining room.

The festive period is a wonderful time to stay in Tobermory, however living on an island means that our suppliers have an even greater challenge getting their produce to us. This may mean our menu may change from above.
