The boundaries of the settlement are very hard to differentiate from the neighbouring settlements of Knock and Killiechronan. The settlement sits between the two large estates of Gruline estate and Benmore estate.
The settlement borders Loch Bà and sits under Ben More and the other mountains of central Mull.
The English name Gruline comes from the Gaelic name Grùilinn, which means "stony land".[2]
