The Old Cottage

Fridge in room, breakfast options, comfy bed

Comfortable room, plenty of space, interesting talks with our hosts, good tourist information, good breakfast, friendly introduction to other guests. Large guest lounge to use on wet days.

We initially considered staying in Oban but decided on The Old Cottage as we wanted a quieter location. This proved to be a great choice for we loved the tranquil setting, the lovely coastal views and how quaint the cottage was! Our king room was spacious, clean and beautifully decorated with little thoughtful touches like chocolates and lovely crockery. The bathroom was one of the largest we had ever seen at a B&B, with two sinks and a bath tub. The cosy guest lounge had a HUGE selection of books for guests to browse and the dining room boasted lovely views of the garden. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and very filling with a wide selection of items - fresh fruit, toast, porridge (which tasted wonderful with generous lashings of treacle) and a hearty cooked Scottish breakfast. Finally, a big thanks too to our hosts Darren and Karen, who were very kind and knowledgeable, and offered useful tips and suggestions on places to visit. It was also nice of them to introduce us to the other guests at breakfast.

We had a little trouble locating the cottage as it was dark when we arrived. But to be fair, Darren and Karen had provided detailed navigation instructions and we struggled probably due to the stress of driving in the dark in an unfamiliar setting.

Karen and Denis are such lovely hosts - friendly and so knowledgeable. My room was cosy and warm and the bed so comfy. There is a lovely guest lounge with an amazing choice of local maps and books. Breakfast was great, the best on my holiday and the view from the dining room is gorgeous. I had a lovely meal at the hotel next door - just down a little path.

Nothing

We had a one night stay at the Old Cottage. From the minute we arrived the hosts, Darren & Karen, were welcoming and very helpful. Nothing was too much trouble. The room was extremely comfortable with everything that we could ask for. Breakfast was excellent. Plenty of choice for either a cooked or continental with good quality ingredients. I highly recommend the Old Cottage.

Nothing to dislike.

The breakfast was very good with a lot of choices and the owners were lovely and friendly. The room was a great size.

It was a little challenging to find though the owners were thoughtful enough to send detailed instructions. A little further from Oban than we anticipated

The cosy interior, comfortable bed, clean and tidy, wonderful Scottish breakfast and beautifully decorated house.
