    Lovely place in Oban
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple

    • Stayed 2 nights

    A small drawback is the room itself was a little smaller than anticipated, but it never proved to be a real issue -- we just needed to be more careful with how we spread our stuff out when packing/unpacking, and the closet included in the room proved to be a great place to store our suitcases when not in use.

    Our host, Joan, was extremely friendly and accommodating. Our room had all the amenities we needed and had a lovely view of the sea. Across the hall from us was a comfortably furnished lounge that would be an excellent place to visit with others if traveling in a group. For breakfast, a variety of cereal, meats, cheeses, yogurt and pastries was available, as well as fresh coffee/tea and toast. It took less than 5 minutes to get to Oban (10 minutes to get the the ferry port where we went on a tour).

    There was nothing I personally didn't like, but it may not be suitable for guests with mobility impairments as it is high up from the main centre of Oban. It is fine if you have access to motor transport, although the centre of Oban is restricted in terms of car parking.

    A very warm and friendly welcome. Exceptionally clean and comfortable room with good facilities. An excellent and varied continental breakfast, including a lot of fresh produce. Very reasonably priced.

    Our bedroom was very small and hard to walk around. We are tall so it felt cramped. However, with the lounge area and so much to do in Oban we weren't in the room except to sleep. Also, it's a hard property to locate, navigation didn't work. Finally my I Phone got us there.

    The owner was very hospitable and kind. She made such sure we had wonderful breakfasts. Property was very clean and looked like a recent remodel with comfortable furniture and great views from both breakfast and lounge areas.

    I understand that tariffs are charged per room, on the basis of being able to accommodate two guests but this is hard on solo travellers. However I will certainly return on my next visit to Oban.

    Joan was very friendly and accommodating to my needs. The property is beautiful and furnished to a high standard. I enjoyed the outdoor space with the lovely views. The breakfast was very good.

    As soon as I walked through the door Joan was there to welcome me. She is a fabulous host. I was up early at 5.30 in the morning as I was there on a diving weekend which meant I would miss breakfast. Joan put a basket of food/breakfast things the night before at the doorstep of my room to make sure I didn't go hungry. Fabulous location. You will not regret staying here!
