“Sports complex acros road and a bowling club open to non members short walk to get drunk if you want”

Mr Wroe, July 2019
“The host was very helpful and pleasant.”

The cottage was very old and comfortable,thank you for a great holiday

There is no view from it at all, but we were aware of that when we booked. The cottage itself was reasonably clean and comfortable. The blinds in the kitchen window desperately need a cleaning and the cooker is ancient (although it worked fine) but these were the only problem areas. The cottage could be made more homey and comfortable for guests with a few "cheap and cheerful" additions such as a few more places to put your things in the bathroom (e.g., a shelf over the toilet), a cafetiere, a few cooking pots, some wine glasses, some artwork on the walls etc. Compared to the flat we stayed in the previous week, it was very spartan. However, it suited our needs and we would not hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a self-catering place in Oban.

The directions were confusing and missed it completely first time round and ended up in the town centre and had to start again

Ms Reid, April 2019
“An excellent holiday.”

Thank you.

Situated not far from the shops, pubs and restaurants. We spent a lot of time out and about visiting Dunollie Castle and drove to Inveraray to visit the old jail. The weather was lovely and sunny but got colder towards evening but there was always a warm welcome waiting for us with heating and electric log burner in the cottage. Everything we might have needed was available and any requests we made were fulfilled by the friendly caretakers Julie and Dougie. Would definitely recommend and use this place again when we are over that way.

Off road parking is very good. Ideal holiday base for a couple. There is a coal effect electric fire in the fireplace which does not work and lets the property down somewhat. There is a wine rack but sadly no wine glasses, serving dishes or trays.

We did require the additional fan heater to top up as due to the current heating system and layout the heat rises into the bedroom. It's down to the individual taste, preference for a firmer mattress. Shower very good.

Mr Gould, November 2018
“Quiet, clean and well cared for house.”

Had everything we needed for the weeks stay. Close to the town centre but far enough away to be out of the way, would stay there again.

Mr Peace, October 2018
“Very relaxing break.”

Loved the cottage!

The Coachouse is only a few minutes walk from the town centre and right next to the leisure centre. It is a small, clean and tidy house, perfect for one or a couple. The bed was so comfortable I slept for eight hours every night after walking all day and enjoying great local food. Can't wait to go back!

Mr Walker, October 2018
“Great Cottage would go again.”

.......location great also

Mr Baldwin, September 2018
“We were initially disappointed, that the dishwasher, which was previously cited in the list, was suddenly missing or was never there.”

But Sykes paid back a refund and everything was fine. Thank you.

Ms Niehaus, September 2018
“The cottage is fine, if a little dark in the lounge area, but the bathroom needs a modern shower.”

Mr Stewart, July 2018

there was a well equipped kitchen if you wanted to cook, I only cooked two evening meals, I mostly eat out, but everything is at your disposal. the sitting room was nice, had the usual amenities tv dvd player games and books I do think those last two items need upgrading. the stairs I have a walking stick but had no trouble at all getting up to the bedroom. there is only 7 steps. the is nice not clutted up furniture and the bed was comfortable. over all enjoyed the week and will rent this cottage again.

Mr Hardy, June 2018
“We felt that a thermostatically controlled shower was needed as the shower connected to the bath tap was hard to adjust.”

Very clean cottage, lots of useful information and in a good position for the centre of Oban. Only used the car once during our weeks stay.

We'd certainly consider the Coach House again if we were to stay in the area. Minor issues: toilet seat doesn't fit properly, so wobbles about; no coat hangers provided (very cheap at Tesco!); no dish washing cloths or scrubbers provided.

It is in a great location within 10 minutes walk of Oban. The house is very warm and cosy and benefits from good off road parking. The kitchen is well equipped with a large fridge freezer, washer dryer and plenty of hot water. A couple of improvements would be a more powerful shower and thicker mattress and pillows on the bed. Some coat hangers in the wardrobes would also be useful. However, these are only minor issues and we will certainly return to this cottage. A visitor book would be nice so feedback and ideas on good places to visit can be shared with future guests. A good choice for a week in Oban.

I was surprised at how big the high street was and by the variety of shops and restaurants/takeaways. Kathrine was really helpful and answered any questions or enquiries we had. Once again thank you.

Mr Edmeades, April 2018
“The cottage might be really nice in the summertime as it doesnt seemed to get much natural light.”

An electric shower would have been better. Absence of certain kitchenware made life more difficult.

Arrangements for entry were exactly as given to us. We did have a minor problem which was more to do with us than the cottage. When we contacted the owner it was dealt with in friendly, timey fashion. The cottage was very close to the centre of Oban and gave us an excellent base for exploring the surrounding area. At this early in the year, and given recent weather conditions, we knew we might be in for a time of making changes to plans. Indeed one of our plans was thwarted completely. However, this did not deter from our enjoyment. We were so impressed, and to see if we can do what we didn't get the chance to do, we are looking at try to book the cottage again later this year. Very many thanks!!

5mins/10mins walk to city centre,train station,ferry terminal. close to the main attractions of Oban. Inside very cosy, clean and well equipped with everything you need. All the facilities were working good but the DVD player. What may be not a priority for those who love having a walk or either exploring. Overall our long weekend in The coach cottage was great! Beautiful place,cute cottage!

The property

The Coach House is a homely detached cottage, dating back to 1800, in the stunning town of Oban in Scotland.

With its characterful features and its great location, this is the perfect break for couples.

Step into the cottage and be greeted by the well-appointed, fresh kitchen with all of the equipment to set you up for your holiday.

The living dining room is a wonderfully inviting room with a cosy leather settee placed in front of the electric fire and Freeview TV, a perfect spot to put your feet up with your loved one.

The ground floor is complete with a stylish bathroom.

The Coach House's biggest asset is its mezzanine bedroom, a fresh and spacious bedroom with a double bed and wooden units, a lovely place to get your rest after a long day of dicovering what Oban and its region has to offer.

Why not take a visit to the Atlantis Leisure Centre to take advantage if it's many facilities and swimming pool.

Oban is a wonderful town to base your holiday, offering a fine selection of pubs, restaurants and shops.

To keep you occupied you can try the Oban Distillery, a cinema and the War & Peace Museum.

The bustling town comes in a rather secluded location, with the brilliant town of Fort William within driving distance which could be worth the trip for a day out.

The Coach House is a lovely cottage in a brilliant town.
