The room and the view were amazing! I did not pay attention to the bathroom situation when I booked, and did not realise it was not en-suite.

Set within 3.1 km of Corran Halls and 8.2 km of Dunstaffnage Castle in Oban, Burnside offers accommodation with seating area.

We stayed at Burnside again ans everything from the room to the bed it was perfect! The room is nice and cozy and perfect when you travel together! The bed is so comfy, we had the best night sleep since a long time! Ready to continue the roadtrip! All the little touches make it so great, from crisps and oats for the morning and water and milk in the fridge. Also private parking on the property! The host was lovely as well! We will definitely come back here!

Located in Oban, within 43 km of Loch Linnhe and 17 km of Dunstaffnage Castle, Blarcreen features accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who drive.

Blarcreeen is a place of peace. It is not just an accommodation, it was kind of our home for those days. Deidre and David were extremely social, helpful and kind, which made our stay even more special. We have never experienced such a warm welcome anywhere else. I do not know if it is needed to talk about breakfast itself, because obviously it was not just the food, but the surroundings that made it so perfect - looking at the sheeps at the yard and enjoying the lovely room, just magical. And if you fancy, they can organise a fantastic dinner for you that you even can spend with some of the other guests if you are keen on making some nice, new friends. We encourage everyone who stays at Blarcreen to slow down and stay there a bit, read in the living room and enjoy the crackling wood in the fireplace or just walk down to the pond, because this is what we think Scotland and a holiday is really about. Just skip some of your "must see's" and just enjoy yourselves. :) Thanks again, we go back next time without any doubt!

    Booked this guest house last minute on our spontaneous mini moon, beautiful guest house, so very clean… it was perfect! Could not fault it. Our host was friendly and lovely and that viewpoint just wow! If you want a quiet little place to stay not far from town then this is the place! Complimentary breakfast in our bedroom was a nice touch too. Thank you for having us.

    Perfect location for exploring Oban and a very charming stay. Very presentable guesthouse with pride put into the appearance. We had a very comfortable quiet nights stay in a lovely room with everything we needed. Only had twin rooms left when booking but we just moved these together so wasn't a problem.

    Had such a great enjoyable and comfortable stay in Invercloy,, Fiona was such a great host and was very friendly relaxed and chatty, the room felt more like my own wee apartment than a room in a guest house and the inclusion of porridge pots, crisps and a cafeteria were all a nice touch an extra bonus, the bed was very comfortable and the view was breathtaking, getting up each morning and looking down and over Oban bay and the harbour was amazing

    A perfect stay, thank you. It is a beautiful wee apartment with everything you could possibly need. Great location near centre of town but quiet enough for a good night of sleep. A cosy place to spend time, wish we could have stayed for longer! Lyndsey was a great host, really thoughtful and responsive to our questions. Would definitely stay here again :-)

    Jacintha and Gérard were very great hosts. Breakfast of fresh fruit with yoghurt, toast and fresh pressed coffee was perfect for me. Lovely quiet location within 15 min walking distance of Oban.
