No7 Oban Harbour

we travelled as a family of 2 adults and 4 children, finding a property to accommodate our large numbers wasn't easy but this place ticked every box. 2 double beds in one room for the kids and one double for us. The flat has the most lovely decor and modern furniture. The kitchen is fully equipped with utensils and crockery. The rooms were all very spacious and the beds very comfortable and loads and loads of storage space throughout. We couldn't work the firestick on the tv as it wouldn't connect to the app, but that wasn't something we were expecting anyway, but would have been a bonus, plenty freeview channels to view. The heating is via 3 electric heaters, one in the bathroom, one in the hall and one in the living room. We worried we would be cold, but wow these heaters are extremely efficient and the flat was absolutely roasting in no time and had to turn them all off. I loved how there were plenty lamps around for ambient lighting, and the couch and swivel chair were super comfy. There was parking on the street, with a meter, that had to be topped up every 4 hours, we were advised by a neighbour that a new traffic warden was on site so be careful to keep up the payments. I see a lot of reviews mentioning the close, it was very clean and very well lit, yes it has 60 stone steps, but this is clearly stated on the listing, and wasnt a problem at all. The area is perfect, directly across from the local library, and a stones throw from central oban, with a stunning view at night of McCaigs Tower. We hope the host will have us back again the next time we are in the area.

the chest of drawers in the double room was a hazard for young children as wasn't attached to the wall so on opening a couple of top drawers it fell forward, but we didn't allow kids near it, not a major issue but maybe something for the host to consider. The hot water thermostat must be set very high, so the water was extremely hot. I had no idea how - if able- to turn it down so had to be carefull with the hot water taps and bath/shower, another thing for the host to maybe consider for safety. There was a few wee cleaning things we noticed - like under the couch and beds, and the microwave had old food gone mouldy inside, but the rest of the place was spotless! and the only reason we needed to go under the couch was to get a piece of the connect 4 game that slid under.

Perfect for our needs, we were very happy with this accomodation and the communication and setup overall was excellent.

The apartment was in a great location to town. Warm and comfortable. The apartment was very clean and had a great shower and bath, beautiful hot water. Very pleasant stay. Thanks.

The comfortable beds and the views from the flat.

Hair on the sheets, some pillows had yellow stains and two windows were leaking water during a rain, especially the one in the main bedroom.

Great location for the centre of Oban, transport, and walks. Quiet, peaceful, and very relaxing apartment. Well stocked with everything that you need. Very helpful and friendly staff.

Great flat, definitely will use again when in Oban.

location and standard

Lovely apartment

A lot of stairs to carry luggage and there was no heating in the bedrooms

The property was comfy and clean. We came for the Mòd and it was everything we needed.

The staircase was a little too dark and there didn’t appear to be a light after the first floor which meant we arrived and I used my phone torch to light the way. Not a massive deal but important to highlight
