Located around 35 km from Kilmartin House Museum, the inn with free WiFi is also 50 km away from Inveraray Castle. The property is non-smoking and is located 29 km from Corran Halls.

We arrived late and had dinner in the pub/restaurant. The quality was way in excess of our expectations. I had a Beetroot cured smoked gravadlax with horseradish cream, cress & toasted sourdough followed by Beer battered haddock & hand cut chips with peas & tartare. The starter was one of the best I have ever had and the main course was the perfect meal for a first day in Scotland. Compliments to the chef!! Our room was spacious with every comfort. A huge comfortable bed with a nice view out the front of the building, and nice bathroom with all necessary accessories.

Boasting a garden and views of garden, Burnside is a recently renovated guest house set in Oban, 3.1 km from Corran Halls. The property has quiet street views and is 8.2 km from Dunstaffnage Castle and 47 km from Kilmartin House Museum. There is a sun terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi and free private parking.

This guesthouse is located just outside the town of Oban. Less then 10 mins drive. The guesthouse is on a quiet road. Perfect for light sleepers like me. My room was a converted attic, I'm 5ft 10 and I tought the headroom was fine. There was a little fridge with a bottle of water and fresh milk. There was also tea, coffe, sugar, crisps, porridge. The fresh milk was a lovely touch. So many places give you UHT milk which I think is rubbish. This small thing was an example of the care and consideration that the hosts have taken with their accommodation. The bed was large, firm and comfortable. The TV had an Amazon FireStick which was used to access free to air apps to watch UK TV. But it also had Amazon Prime. Which meant I could watch my favourite shows. Again a lovely extra. The bathroom was spacious and the shower was good. There was even a bathrobe to wear after. The WIFI was fast and reliable. The whole place was spotlessly clean. The host met me on arrival, along with her beautiful husky. She was very welcoming and helpful.

    Very easy and straightforward check-in with our host giving quick replies to queries. The apartmant was way more spacious and cozier than thought, having only looked at the pictures. Very quiet location but also close to the city centre. The kitchen was also well equipped for our short stay.

    Great location in quiet riverside view area outside busier Oban. The older hotel is charming and filled with character, like the dining spaces and 'resident lounge'. The breakfast and dinner were outstanding, and waitstaff exceptional. Quiet and clean room. We would stay again in older part of hotel.

    A perfect stay, thank you. It is a beautiful wee apartment with everything you could possibly need. Great location near centre of town but quiet enough for a good night of sleep. A cosy place to spend time, wish we could have stayed for longer! Lyndsey was a great host, really thoughtful and responsive to our questions. Would definitely stay here again :-)

    Great location, very close to town centre, ferry & could walk to great views & beaches. Comfortable bed & quiet surroundings. We left early to catch ferry to Mull so did not have breakfast. Helpful host - was waiting for us & moved his brother's car so we could park ours next to guesthouse.
