About this property

Seaside Apartment - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

New to West Coast Cottages for 2021, Seaside Apartment has an enviable and superb position overlooking Oban Bay and the historic McCraigs Tower which can be seen in all its majestic glory fully lite up in its many differing colours each evening.

This apartment is on the 2nd floor of the bilding, fully fitted out to a high standard with all conveniences you would expect, from its spacious living and panoramic window view's over Oban Bay and up to McCraigs tower in the background - you could just sit there and watch the world go by all day. With one double bedroom with en-suite facilities and one twin room with separate family bathroom. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need including a dishwasher, microwave, washing machine, a fridge/freezer and a stovetop.

One of the main advantages of Seaside Apartment is having its own private car parking space close to the apartment.

Oban is a lively west coast harbour town with lots going on for our visitors. It is central for touring Argyll known as the “Gateway to the isles”, with beautiful hikes, casual walks, or boat trips to see some wildlife. There is a lovely sandy beach at Ganavan which is 1½ miles away or Tralee just 5 miles out.

You are within easy walking distance of the facilities Oban has to offer, including Costa café right below you and the new delicatessens opposite the main entrance. In keeping with its reputation as the “seafood capital of Scotland” you also have many excellent restaurants to choose from, likewise, cafés, pubs, galleries, viewpoints, shops and of course Oban's famous distillery.

There are lovely walks from your front door, following the bay south past Oban's Yacht club towards the Kerrera ferry and heading north through Oban and to Dunollie Castle. Onward you can head to Oban's beach – Ganavan, or you can head north by car and explore Port Appin's coastal area and Castle Stalker. With only an hour's drive north you can visit Glencoe and Fort William and to the east is Inveraray complete with the truly magnificent castle and infamous Jail. The spectacular coastline offers pleasant walks along the esplanade at sunset with unspoilt views of the islands of Kerrera, Mulland Lismore with ferries sailing to these islands and many more from Oban daily, allowing you to hop on and off easily throughout the year for the Ideal explorer visit.

I was extremely disappointed to find no tea, coffee and milk in the apartment. We have hired cottages ,apartments in UK, Canada, USA, Australia, and New Zealand. Every place that we have hired has always had tea, coffee, sugar and milk. Also the main outside door to exit into the road and shared by all of the flats in the block was faulty. On the first day I went to open the door by turning the turn button to get out. This came away in my hand, effectively this was a fire hazard!! My husband managed to repair it and we reported it to Sandie. The apartment was dressed to look good, but there were no instructions on how to use the appliances, again these are normally in the rental property. Also the night storage heaters were not set high enough in the main lounge as it was very cold when we stayed at the apartment.

We were in Oban for a funeral and this apartment suited our needs perfect.
We needed accommodation as we were attending a family funeral . This apartment was central to all our needs and was perfect for us. We only stayed 3 nights but it was lovely and clean and warm. Thank you.

Spring break
Very comfortable accommodation. Comfortable beds and powerful showers. Having your own parking space in Oban is a big bonus. A bit of traffic noise, but not enough to bother us. Would certainly recommend.

New Year in Oban
A lovely flat in an ideal location , handy for ferries , public transport , local shops and places to eat . We enjoyed a cosy stay at New Year with a wonderful view of the Hogmanay fireworks from McCaig's Tower . A great advantage is having the private parking beside the flat . Thanks to Sandie for accommodating us re our arrival day when the weather changed .

Great apartment, very central
Seaside apartment was an excellent base for our stay in Oban, with amazing views over the water and town. The whole apartment was well appointed and very well equipped, especially the kitchen. My only negative comment would be about the comfort of the twin beds, with a very uncomfortable matress. A big plus is the dedicated car parking space within a private car park. West Coast were very responsive to any problems and the key access worked very well. The 37 stairs up to the second floor help keep you active.
