St. Columba Hotel

$$ | Next to cathedral, Iona, PA76 6SL, Scotland

As befits a religious retreat, rooms in this 1846 minister's home are plain to the point of being spartan, but those in the front make up for it with glorious views across the Sound of Iona to Mull. It has eco-friendly leanings, so (at least in summer) your hot water comes from the rooftop solar panels.

Pros

  • Impressive views
  • Nice log fires
  • Eco-friendly

Cons

  • Pretty expensive for what is essentially a religious hostel
  • Few home comforts
  • Basic meals
