Posizione perfetta per distilleria e porto. Parcheggio interno compreso.
Pros:

Abbiamo alloggiato in un appartamento indipendente dalla struttura principale, una soluzione che ci ha garantito grande tranquillità, privacy e tutto lo spazio necessario per sentirci come a casa.

Un altro grande punto di forza è il parcheggio interno ( attenzione, i posti sono pochi e tendono a esaurirsi durante la giornata)

La posizione è semplicemente perfetta: il centro di Oban è raggiungibile in pochi minuti a piedi e, a brevissima distanza, si trovano sia la distilleria sia il porto, punto di partenza per escursioni e visite alle isole.

La combinazione tra comfort, indipendenza e posizione strategica rende questa struttura una scelta ideale per visitare Oban.

I recommend to stay
Pros:

It was a nice place to stay as the location is in the centre, and the size of room was big. Also room itself was very clean.

Cons:

The studio was next to the carpark and every one can look into myroom if they want to see from the carpark. I needed to put the curtains down all the time.
