Absolutely lovely place to stay!

Absolutely lovely place to stay. My husband and I stayed for just 2 nights before tying the knot in Appin. We arrived early and didn’t expect to be able to check in until the booked time, but they went out of their way to accommodate us early. The room was very nice and clean, and the whole property was gorgeous, beautifully decorated and has amazing character - also with a fantastic view! They also supplied our room with tea, coffee and a mini fridge pre-stocked with some breakfast/snacks! The property is quite close to everything, we were able to walk everywhere we needed to go in Oban from the property! We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay!

Liked: Cleanliness
Staying in Oban is challenging - the location of Blair Villa is a benefit and a liability, depending on how you see it - located on the highest road atop the town, it doesn't have any noise or neighbor issues, but you might not want to climb the hill after a evening's merriment. The room was comfortable but small, with breakfast offered in a takeaway bag rather than a buffet, and everything seemed well kept although we didn't get to chat with the owner much.

Wonderful stay

Our stay was wonderful…very friendly and helpful owners. Lovely House and beautiful room. Modern bathroom and comfortable bed. Refrigerator in room was stocked with continental breakfast every day, Room was tidied and clean towels supplied on a daily basis. Only drawback was a steep walk up to house especially when you have luggage. Very convenient though to Main Street on the harbour.

We had a great stay at the Blair Villa and highly recommend! The hosts were so friendly and helpful, and the home felt like an authentic Scottish experience. It was convenient location - walkable to everything in town. The room was clean and comfy, and the hosts even left snacks/breakfast in the fridge for us each day. 5 stars!

Welcoming, clean and perfect for our one night stay. A charming B&B. Would stay again. Breakfast was a takeaway ‘doggy bag’ containing juice, fruit, croissant & muesli bar, which was great for us as we had an early start. It is located up hill from the town centre, so the steep walk will not suit all. On street parking on the road outside.

Would gladly return!

Proprietors were lovely and welcoming. The inn was beautiful and unique. While small, the room was outfitted well with a generous tea set up and a modern bathroom. A healthy breakfast was provided. Good location just a few minutes walk from town.
