Bunessan

Bunessan is a small village on the Ross of Mull, on the road linking the ferry terminals at Craignure and Fionnphort.

Renowned for the lobsters caught offshore in Loch Scridain, the village has a number of tourist facilities including a general store and a post office, and boasts the only pub in the area. It is also home to the Ross of Mull Historical Centre. Sited in a portakabin on the roadside to the west of the village, the ROMHC was set up in response to world-wide demand from those seeking their roots in the Ross of Mull.

Bunessan is celebrated in the official name of the melody popularly known as 'Morning Has Broken'. The tune was originally a Gaelic folk tune and had words added to it in Gaelic in the 19th century by a native of the Ross, Mary MacDonald who lived close to the village.
