Where to stay
Your first
view of Oban is one you will truly never forget. From the north,
you glimpse the unforgettable view from the top of the
"Bealach-an-Righ". As you come down the hill towards the expanse of
the bay, the view opens up before you and it becomes clear why it
is so easy to appreciate why Oban has developed into Scotland's
most popular west-coast holiday town.
Oban today
has a resident population of 8,500 and is the "Gateway to the
Isles". The panoramic views of the mountains, lochs and islands
which have captivated artists, authors, composers, and poets for
centuries are as significantly spectacular now as they always
were.
Oban is a
wonderful place to spend time with its stunning west coast sunsets,
excellent sea food and huge variety of accommodation. It also gives
easy access to all the nearby islands Oban is the biggest hub
on the west coast giving access to all the Inner and Outer
Hebrides. Oban has an uncanny way of bringing out the romantic and
mystical side of its visitors. With mists which roll in, and the
gentle pitter patter of the evening rain, it truly is a spiritual
and special place.
There is
plenty to keep you busy in and around the area, whether your stay
is a flying trip or a long vacation. So enjoy your visit with us
