Oban, which is just 10 miles away, offers all amenities including supermarkets andfuel. From Oban guests can take a ferry to explore the Isles of Mull and others. This busy port is ‘The Gateway to the Isles’ but it’s also perfect for exploring Argyll to the south and the Highlands to the north. Oban is the ferry port that starts many a Scottish island adventure but this pretty and vibrant town deserves a much closer look in its own right.

The crescent shaped hills that surround Oban Bay forms the port town of Oban, where there are plenty of excellent shops, cafes and restaurants, many of which overlook the picturesque bay, in fact Oban has a great selection of seafood restaurants, which is why it’s known as the ‘Seafood Capital of Scotland’.
