The subject line says Outer Hebrides.
I’ve got a friend who has a family home on Barra & goes there for a fortnight every year with her family.
If you enjoyed Mull, the Outer Hebrides are kinda similar: beaches, bogs, mountains (on some islands), wildflowers, free range sheep & highland cattle, bird life, single track roads, and not much happening on Sunday at the north end. Fuel will be eye wateringly expensive, like Mull.
The VisitScotland app is excellent. So to is an app called OuterHebrides which is very useful & lists crofts that take a few campers, over & above what’s listed in UKCS.
Watch the ferry times if you’re needing to be back home on a specific date - if you miss one because of weather or technical issues on the boat (that’s a problem with CalMac’s ageing fleet), it will throw out your schedule.
Hate to say it but avoid Skye in the tourist season - beautiful but it’s like the NC500 on steroids, mobbed.
An alternative is to try Islay, Jura & Tiree. I don’t think camping is allowed on Coll, Motorhomes aren’t.
