Hotels near Oban Airport - OBN, Oban

The Apartment was just perfect so modern and clean . The view was exceptional . I could have just looked at it for hours😃 We got the bus which ran hourly into Oban so we could spend the day there and have a meal and a few drinks . There’s so much to do there . I was lucky enough to get photos of the sunset 😍

Benderloch is a small linear village on the main road. An area of flat land to the west of the village has several caravan, camping and motor home sites, B&B and restaurant facilities. It is well equipped for serving tourists needs. A walk up Beinn Lora is a must. The 360 degree views are spectacular. And a reward for the steep climb. Only a short drive to Oban with all the shops, bars, restaurants, transport links, and facilities a tourist needs.

I had an enjoyable stay at Benderloch, while attending a course at Dunbeg. The local beach is perfect for swimming, and there are hairy coos grazing in front of the property. Adorable. Also, in the afternoons someone in the distance plays the bagpipes, just in case you forget you’re in Scotland. There are several good restaurants in the area, but a car is recommended to get around. There is a bus but I think the timetable would be limiting. If I’d had more time I would’ve gone for walks as the area is really beautiful.

Benderloch is a great location. However, one of the main reasons I wanted to stay there was to visit Castle Stalker, but that wasn't possible because it is privately owned and only availble to tour and book in advance, and only on very limited days per month (3 - 4 days). This was a great disapointment for me. So I recommend booking it 6 months in advance of your trip.

Stunning location. Quiet and serene, exactly what I needed to escape my busy life. Take a ferry to Lismore, visit Port Appin, enjoy fresh fish in Oban, drive bit stop often to appreciate the beauty of Scotland. Take lots of photos to create wonderful memories.

As it was November, a number of venues had closed for the season but there were still a lot of restaurants to choose from within a 20 minute drive. The pink shop, Munro's is very well stocked and the staff lovely and welcoming. Ronnie, the host at Coel Ila was most welcoming and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay
