"Room was small but clean and functional. Dinner and breakfast were very nice. Service could have been a bit quicker. Reception staff were friendly, chatty and welcoming. Bar looked nice but unfortunately didn't have a chance to visit. Location in Oban was very good and central."

Cabin 16 'Duart'
A Cosy Cabin With Views Over Loch Awe.
"Gregor the host was very friendly and approachable. The setting was beautiful, the cabin was cosy and had everything we needed. However the double bed would benefit from a mattress topper, the bunks were comfortable."
