Theres not really much to fault with this B&B. It's warm and welcoming with beautiful views from the guest lounge. The bedroom was nice, although the bed was a little uncomfortable. The huge pillows were great though! It was also very quiet. Shower room was a bit small, but apart from that, everything else was perfect for our one night... More

our old lumpy mattress had a knackered topper felt like sleeping on top of a duvet. Breakfast was bad, cheap sausages, undercooked tomato and average fried eggs. No mushrooms or beans. Host was helpful with local area information and building itself is charming. But with a bad nights sleep and a poor breakfast, saw little value for money.

Superb location with great views over Oban, the centre of which is only minutes away on foot. great choise of breakfasts, which are all very tasty and quickly served. And very modestly priced on top, This... More

Loved this place. Our hosts couldn’t have been more welcoming. The rooms are excellent and the piano room at the top is incredible (think they must have built the piano into the place!) Wholehearted recomendation!

A little cramped within the room, but other than that we could find no fault. The host was very friendly, and provided a lot of useful advice about our plans in Oban/restaurants/bars. The location is very convenient and gives a great view of the city below. The house itself is beautiful... I would absolutely stay here again...

A strange house with a mix of old, new and tacky. Nice paintings in the hall mixed with a photo of the owner dressed in a feather boa. The stairs were enormous and unsuitable for any one with a disablity or bad knees. This is not helped by the location on top of a very steep hill. The breakfast room... More

As soon as we arrived, we were welcomed by a very friendly host, who provided us with key information regarding where to eat from the lounge window which overlooked the pretty town below. I was impressed with the decor, although may not be to everyones taste. Room was compact, but clean and the bed very comfortable indeed. Breakfast was tasty... More

I stayed during 4 nights at the Blair Villa. Alex the owner makes you feel at home. Bedroom 3 where I was staying was quite small but tidy, with a single bed, a desk, a cupboard and a mounted flat screen TV on the wall. There was a small en-suite bathroom with sink, toilet and a good size shower. The... More
