Blarcreen, hotel in Oban

Located in Oban, within 43 km of Loch Linnhe and 17 km of Dunstaffnage Castle, Blarcreen features accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who drive.

Blarcreeen is a place of peace. It is not just an accommodation, it was kind of our home for those days. Deidre and David were extremely social, helpful and kind, which made our stay even more special. We have never experienced such a warm welcome anywhere else. I do not know if it is needed to talk about breakfast itself, because obviously it was not just the food, but the surroundings that made it so perfect - looking at the sheeps at the yard and enjoying the lovely room, just magical. And if you fancy, they can organise a fantastic dinner for you that you even can spend with some of the other guests if you are keen on making some nice, new friends. We encourage everyone who stays at Blarcreen to slow down and stay there a bit, read in the living room and enjoy the crackling wood in the fireplace or just walk down to the pond, because this is what we think Scotland and a holiday is really about. Just skip some of your "must see's" and just enjoy yourselves. :) Thanks again, we go back next time without any doubt!
