The Tanglin B&B is in a convenient location only a few blocks from the harbor. The rooms are very large, especially the bathroom (ours had a jacuzzi tub and separate shower). The bed was comfortable. Parking is available in the back for several cars. Jim and Lizzie are very helpful hosts and the English breakfast was terrific. Jim also helped... More

My wife and I stayed at Tanglin B&B for three nights in September of 2008 as the first stop of our trip around Scotland. The room was clean, comfortable and the breakfasts were fantastic. The hosts, Jim and Liz, were super helpful with suggestions for things to do in and around town and about restaurants in town. Jim helped me... More

We stayed at Tanglin B&B for two nights in August 2011 on a trip through Scotland. It's a great B&B with casual, chatty hosts Jim and Liz, very reasonably priced, and even offers off-street parking for guests with a rental car (which we needed). All the rooms are en-suite, which was a special little treat after weeks of rooms with... More

Jim and Liz are the greatest B & B hosts among a list of great B & B hosts during our trip. We thought they were so much fun to visit with and such terrific tour guides. Their B and B is basic in an older line of B and B's just a short walk from the main part of... More

This was our first stay at a B&B. My husband previously didn't even consider B&B's (said he wanted privacy which you do get in a regular hotel but no character). However, several friends rave about B&B's especially when traveling especially in more rural areas so after an endorsement by a guide for a well-known tour company, he decided to try... More

My recent overnight stay with Jim and Liz at the Tanglin B&B in Oban, Scotland was a joy. Warm, friendly hosts and clean, comfortable, big rooms. Delicious breakfast and extra effort shown to us throughout our stay. I highly recommend this B&B.

We have twice stayed with Jim and Liz at Tanglin and cannot imagine staying anywhere else in Oban. They are friendly, fun, and extremely helpful about local information. The house is comfortable, the location great, food tasty, conversations lively - what else can we ask?! A man on a bus in Edinburgh first recommended Tanglin to us, and we'll always... More

We stayed in 2 of the rooms on the top floor and they were not clean. The sheets and the bathroom fixtures were clean but the walls and the carpet had obviously not been cleaned in a LONG time.
