Pennyghael (Scottish Gaelic: Peighinn nan Gàidheal[1]) is a small village in the Ross of Mull, Argyll and Bute, Scotland.

[2] The Pennyghael Estate covers roughly 10,000 acres (4,000 ha) and extends to the sea cliffs at Carsaig Bay and from Kinloch in the east to Aird Fada in the west.

[3] Pennyghael has a weather observation station which is equipped with Simple Auroral Magnetometer, thermometer and hygrometer which are enclosed in a small Stevenson Screen and fixed on the wall of the observatory building here.

[5] Ancient history of Pennyghael is traced to Neolithic cairns found at Burg, which links the county to 4000BC when people lived here.

[8] Pennyghael is also very significant to modern Scottish Gaelic literature; in 1911, Catriona (Katie) MacDonald, whose father owned the Kinloch Hotel, emigrated to Pretoria, in the Union of South Africa, to become the wife and Muse of highly important 20th-century Gaelic Bard and fellow Mull native Duncan Livingstone.

[2] Also nearby is the Pennyghael Hotel, to the south of the Island Mul, noted as a "delightful, six-room country hotel set in a 17th-century farmhouse near the head of Loch Scridain, about halfway between Craignure and Fionnphort;"[13] all rooms have views of Loch Scridain or Ben More, and two rooms provide views of white tailed eagle nest also.

[citation needed] The estate is noted for its two families of otters (on the northern shore) and a seal colony on the reef of Killunaig.

Also seen here are red deer (in the moors), peregrine falcons, sea and golden eagles, ravens, hen harriers, wild goats, and others.
