A really lovely apartment at walking distance to the centre of Oban. It is well equipped (the only thing missing is a dishwasher), parking on the street just outside the flat was never an issue, and the hosts are always friendly and helpful.
We enjoyed our stay in this cosy, clean and well-equipped apartment. An easy walk into town but in a quiet area. Oban is an excellent base and we hope to return. Would definitely stay at Elmbank again.
Situated up a steep hill close to the town, seafront and McCraigs tower this is a lovely accommodation complete with its own small outside deck area. Good facilities with a washing machine, coffee maker included with all the other white goods. Electric heaters are provided in the rooms although there is a single radiator in the main room which keeps the place warm. Booking was simple and we were provided with information on location, if towels and laundry included etc. For those not too mobile access could be a bit difficult and the bathroom floor has no heating so it is very cold especially at night. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and no doubt will be booking again in the future.
Beautiful apartment just a short walk out of town. The apartment had everything we needed with tea and coffee provided. An informative folder was left for us to browse . We were left a welcome gift of fudge which was very thoughtful. The apartment was warm clean and very tastefully decorated , would stay here again
Arrived at Elmbank to find the apartment lovely and warm with lights left on which was nice and welcoming.
The whole apartment had been well thought out and the decor and furnishings are tasteful and functional. Kitchen was well appointed (perhaps some coffee and milk could be left in the apartment to welcome guests?), lounge area was comfortable (though sofa a bit soft if I am critical), shower room adequate with good quality towels and bedroom very comfortable.
The path down the side of the apartment is a bit tight between the building and the wall especially if carrying large bags.
Parking on the road was OK but would prefer off-street parking especially as this is a bus route and Croft Road although wider at Elmbank is narrow in places.
Free wifi was good to have.
15 minute walk into town and 15-20 minute to ferry terminal.
Great location a bit out of town, would be nice in the summer to sit on the small deck in an evening.
I would definitely recommend this apartment for sol travelers or couples.

I would highly recommend this lovely apartment for anyone looking to stay slightly outside of Oban. Upon arrival, the flat was lovely and clean with beautiful fresh flowers to welcome us. The location is very peaceful and parking is right outside - which is perfect. Ruth and Grigor are extremely accommodating, and the kitchen and living room are very well equipped, making it feel like a home from home. Thanks for making our last night in Scotland such a peaceful one!
