Great location, awesome host, unique B&B with antiques and great view of Oban bay. Favorite place I stayed on my 3 week adventure to Scotland. Modern shower, great bed, but also antiques everywhere, and cool architecture because uts an old house.

I had a very comfortable stay here. The location, although up quite a steep hill was very easily walked from town and the bus/train and ferry terminal. A perfect spot from which you can explore Oban and the area.

Lovely home with rooms overlooking the harbour.

A lovely house converted to hotel with artwork and furnishings in the parlor that you would expect for its era. The room and bed were very comfortable. Bathrooms were clean and plenty of hot water. The host kindly met us at the door and made us feel right at home providing directions to the places we wanted to visit. I highly recommend staying here.

We loved staying here. Lovely hosts, so quaint, and gorgeous interiors with good amenities. Delighted to have a fridge, and to have the fridge filled with snacks. Parking is a challenge as the property is on a steep hill, and it's quite a steep walk to get to and from restaurants for anyone who might have limitations. It was the nicest place we stayed in whilst in Scotland.

Everything was as described! No false expectations here! This place is all about the Location-Location-Location! Park and drop off your bags and walk Oban! Easy key fob entry. Bathroom updates were excellent. USB connections by both nightstands. Bag of breakfast was soooooooo thoughtful and served as our picnic on the go, driving up to Glencoe. I totally understand why this place is given 10 Stars despite the steep stairs. It's a gem, book it!
