Hubby and I stayed 2 nights as part of our week's tour of west Scotland. Strathnaver was very easy to find and Irene gave us a warm welcome and showed us to our spacious front room with a view of the bay and a nice comfortable bed. The ensuite was roomy too. There is a large guest lounge too. We... More

We stayed just for one night on our way back to Glasgow. Service was simply perfect, great breakfast and beautiful rooms. Looking forward to visit again. Prices were absolutely ok for the quality of the arrangement.

My husband and I stayed two nights in September. We were so impressed with this place that I was moved to write this review - something I rarely do. Everything was great about this comfortable, clean, spacious place. The food was unbelievably good. So much better than most places we stayed. But the warmth and charming personality of Irene, the...

We stayed here in late Sept/early Oct, 2012, and found the hosts to be very friendly and helpful. Our ensuite twin room was larger than expected and comfortable, very clean. While the decor was not to our taste, I wouldn't call it 'outdated' as 1-2 other reviewers have, but might choose a little more neutral style. There is (free) WiFi... More

Booking weeks ahead online, the reception could not be better arriving on a Sunday around noon, the single room was up grated to a double with lovely linen and soft towels, bath room was very clean. Only Joghurt was missing for the perfect breakfast.

I visited this guest house on the 14th and 15th August 2012 and from the moment we set foot inside the door we were made to feel welcome. There is not much you can say when you have nothing to complain about and this really was the case here. The owners have been in the business a long time ,... More

We found this little gem of a B and B after trawling round Oban and turning down two pretty awful looking places, one of which looked like it was owned by Uncle Fester (From the Adams Family!) Anyway what a find, sadly we only stayed for one night, the welcome by Irene was lovely, the place spotless and very well... More

We are a couple from Barcelona and we have enjoyed a lot Oban. We were impressed by the guest house, owners are a lovely couple and the rooms were perfectly clean. Breakfast was complete and tasty. To sum up, it is a place to fully recommend about and we totally would go again in the future.

After being in a dire B & B the night before this was like heaven! Although our room was rather small it was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. A good hearty scottish breakfast, well cooked and well presented. Would certainly recommend.
