    Can't think of anything I didn't like.

    The room was spacious, very comfortable and had everything we needed. Big comfortable bed, ample duvet and pillows. Spotlessly clean. It was in a great location along the promenade, within easy reach of town.

    The room and en-suite were immaculate, well-appointed and spacious and the bed was super comfortable. We very much appreciated all the little details and extras, ranging from a wee fridge, a complimentary sherry and chilled water - and even the fun Scottish items like Irn Bru and Tunnocks products! In addition there was fresh fruit every morning in the lobby, and we enjoyed the guest lounge offering top-ups from tea to toilet roll. Our hosts were very friendly and kindly looked after our bags on check-out day, allowing us to spend our last morning in Oban unencumbered. Superb - highly recommended!

    It was cold and rainy and the place was A bit far from Oban center and needed to drive to the restaurant - but it was definitely worth it!

    Amazing rooms with stunning view, beautifully designed. We didn’t have a direct communication with the owners,who operate the business but got the filling they gave a lot of thought and catered for our every need.

    Nothing to report here.

    Central and quiet location. 10mins walk to shops, restaurants, cafes, bars and North Pier. Beautiful big en-suite room. Immaculately clean. Very nice welcome pack with traditional treats (including a can of irn bru). Hosts very approachable and informative. There was also an outside seating area with stunning evening views over the bay.

    Beautiful room with stunning sea view! Loved the bed, very spacious and comfortable. The shower was amazing too. I usually don’t like fridges in hotel rooms as they can be very noisy but this one was totally quiet and we definitely needed it as the weather was beautiful and it was hot. Customer service was excellent. I messed up my travel dates and had to rebook. Jan was very responsive and kind and sorted it all out for me in the end. Thank you so much, my mum and I had a wonderful stay at your place and I will definitely book again with you when I come back to Oban.

    Great room, very comfortable situated in a wonderful location right on the shoreline. With only a ten minute leisurely walk along the esplanade into Oban centre where we found some great places to eat and drink. With the added benefit being pet friendly. The owner, Mark, who we had the pleasure of meeting, was a mine of local information... couldn't have had time, we will be back.
