Lochbuie, Mull

Lochbuie (Scottish Gaelic: Locha Buidhe, meaning "yellow loch"[1]) is a settlement on the Isle of Mull in Scotland about 22 kilometres (14 mi) west of Craignure.

Once known as the "Garden of Mull",[2] the fertile land around the main village of seventeen houses[3] is surrounded by hills, with the narrow valley to the east containing both Loch Uisg and the only road to the estate.

[4] Frank Lockwood's Island (or Eilean Sneth Dian) lies in the Firth of Lorne, just offshore from the Laggan peninsula to the south.

"[16] Samuel Johnson wrote:[17] We came without any difficulty, at evening, to Lochbuy, where we found a true Highland Laird, rough and haughty, and tenacious of his dignity; who, hearing my name, inquired whether I was of the Johnstons of Glencroe, or of Ardnamurchan.
