The Great Western hotel provides the ideal base for a relaxing break in this stunning area, with its central location, comfortable accommodation and offering wonderful views. It’s just a short walk from the waterside, shops, harbour and many visitor attractions. From the town, you can admire breathtaking views of the mountains, lochs and surrounding islands.

Location

Oban

Oban and neighbouring Lorn have a long and interesting history which began in the Dark Ages with kings and chiefs building castles and forts along the coast. In 500AD a powerful Irish Lord named Loairn established his Kingdom just outside Oban at Dunollie and gave his name to the district.
