Excellent short stay as we prepare to take the ferry to Mull. Great proximity to Oban, up on the hill above the town, so quiet and peaceful. Incredible view facing west from the car park! Lovely stay in a clean and comfy room.

This place is great! The innkeeper is super sweet and helpful. Parking is easy for a town that has very little free parking. It's a ten-minute walk to downtown. Great, cute room. No complaints. Would definitely stay here again.
