NATURE lovers who want to be right next to the action should head to a tiny island in Scotland.<\/p>\n

The Isle of Luing is dubbed one of the "best-kept secrets in Scotland" with just 200 locals and three minutes from the mainland.<\/p>\n


\n
\n<\/p>\n

There's no pub or supermarket, and the ferry stops at 6pm. <\/p>\n

But what is on the island is the WildLuing resort, home to eight self-catering "WildSuites" which overlook Torsa Bay in the Firth of Lorn.<\/p>\n

Guests can book The Observatory, with panoramic views as well as a fully equipped kitchen, pantry and cosy living space.<\/p>\n

It can be used as a yoga retreat, cooking<\/span> school or even wedding reception.<\/p>\n

WildLuing, which claims the island is the "best kept secret," was launched last year by Emily and Jack, along with the help of their family.<\/p>\n

Having lived on the island for three generations, their next<\/span> plans include a sauna.<\/p>\n

There are lots of other activities on the island outside of the resort too, including High Point which has the "best view" of Scotland. <\/p>\n

Many of the beaches are home to smooth pebbles that make it perfect for skimming stones – with the World Stone Skimming championships on a nearby island.<\/p>\n

Most people who visit WildLuing have raved about it, saying they are going to return.<\/p>\n

One person said: "If you're looking for the most idyllic, authentic and remote Scottish experience, then look no further."<\/p>\n

Another said: "One of the most incredible places for a relaxing week away! It was amazing to wake up with a view of the ocean from my bed."<\/p>\n

Another island in Scotland has been dubbed the "Hawaii of the North" thanks to its surf.<\/p>\n

And here's an island in Cornwall that's like travelling back to the 1970s.<\/p>\n
