A very pleasant B&B, especially for the price. As it was quiet, the owner offered us a choice of room. The room was clean and comfortable (with a good selection of biscuits!). It is in a quiet corner of Oban, really close to the ferry terminal but only a few minutes walk from the main shops and restaurants. Being able... More

We found the hospitality, food and family room to be of a good standard. The room itself was very comfortable and homely and my daughters particularly liked the bunk beds. The rooms etc were very clean and warm and the breakfast was really good. We liked the proximity to the ferry terminal and got good local advice from the owner.... More

This b and b has a lot of rooms and is very much a business rather than a family home with rooms. Having said that our room was clean and comfortable, the breakfast was excellent and our wet clothes were kindly put through the tumble dryer. It's proximity to the ferry means that some early risers stay here. It is... More

We stayed here years ago when the place was under different management. Since then the bedrooms and public areas have been renovated and redecorated to a higher standard. Breakfast was better, too, with everything from a Full Scottish spread to muesli or yogurt or fruit. We arrived late because of train connections, but were warmly greeted at the door and... More

Stayed here for three days for the second time running. Everything about this place is excellent. Can't find any fault. Really good value for money and so homely. Even the small portion cooked breakfast was huge! Well done James and Claire for making our break really great. Will return again later this year. More

My partner and I were looking for somewhere down to earth that was near Oban train station and this fitted the bill. Good honest service at a reasonable price. We both had a comfortable nights sleep and a hearty Scottish breakfast. One review seemed shocked at the colour of the water and fried toast. Well - welcome to the Scottish... More
