About this property
A seafront apartment accommodating 4, boasting an enviable and superb position overlooking Oban Bay and the historic McCaigs Tower.
Seaside Apartment has an enviable and superb position overlooking Oban Bay and the historic McCaigs Tower (best seen at night when fully lit up in many differing colours) - you could just sit at the window each day and watch the world go by, but then you'd be missing out on all that Scotland's 'Seafood Capital' has to offer!
Oban is a lively 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.
Another advantage of this beautiful apartment is the use of a private car parking space, close to the apartment.
Seaside Apartment is let weekly Saturday to Saturday between end of May until Mid September. Short breaks are welcome out with these months

Great apartment, even better than the pictures on the advert. Really comfortable. Great location. Two minor issues. The grill in the oven was not particularly effective, and the bedroom windows needed more privacy in the form of net curtains or blinds, as they were overlooked by the Claredon Hotel opposite. Drawing the curtains meant switching the light on which is tedious and wasteful before dark.
