We have just stayed at the Barriemore and couldn't have been made to feel more welcome. The view from room 2 over the bay is just perfect. A large bathroom, comfortable bed, wifi and all the usual facilities are in this spacious and clean room. Even complimentary sherry! The breakfast will keep us going all day. Defiantly a place to...

We stayed here recently, and it's definately the best B&B I've ever stayed in - in fact it's more like a boutique hotel. We had a very warm welcome, and a really good breakfast in their lovely breakfast room. The decor is fabulous, the owners have obviously worked very hard to make the place so nice. The bedroom and bathroom... More

Recommended by a friend who stayed here a few years ago, though i understand with the previous owners. Fabulous location, with sea view. Ferry passes right in front. Nice walk along the sea wall into town. Very comfortable room, bed too hard for my liking, but perfect for my husband. Very good breakfast, cooked to order, Arranged a reservation for... More

We have just came back from a three day stay in room B at this lovely guest house. The room was just perfect, great bed, and super views from the windows over Oban bay, where we watched the sunset, and the sperm whale which happened to be in the bay at the time.. The breakfast selection was extensive and well... More

What a beautiful hotel in an amazingly beautiful location. Hospitality could not be doubted. Hotel was so homely. We were lucky enough to see the most unusual site of a whale in the harbour from our room- so lucky!! I would not hesitate to recommend - we will be returning.

We booked room A in the Barriemore Guest House for a weekend away in Oban. Our jaws dropped when we saw the room. It is absolutely huge! It is furnished to a very high standard and retains the beautiful, original features of the building including a huge, stained glass window at the head of our bed! Wonderful. The view out... More

Great location on the edge of town, quiet but only a short walk to the hub of Oban centre. Very warm welcome and helpful recommendations from the staff for eating places. A great tasty breakfast with wide choice. Owners are relatively new so further upgrading is taking place over the winter.The views from the Barriemore are awesome and the stair... More
