This is one of the most relaxing and beautiful places I have ever stayed. Stunning scenery, welcoming staff, great food and so dog friendly. So quiet, so peaceful but Oban is in easy reach. Mr Dog loved it. Basket of tennis balls to choose from at the front door and towels to dry him after a swim in the Loch, walks in the woods, and a sausage at breakfast.
