Great place to stay and very convenient location. It's worth climbing the stairs for the views.

As mentioned by other guests - ferry view is a 3rd floor flat. It has 44 steps to get to it - which would be a challenge for anyone with access issues (it was enough of a struggle with luggage) but the views at the top over the ferry port and Oban bay were beautiful.Parking was narrow and parallel parking in a row. The bays were allocated but it would have been a tight squeeze if everyone had been parked in their own bay.The cottage itself was clean and well equipped, although a bin or a bag for recycling would be a welcome addition *** it was a long way down those 44 steps with arms full of plastic and paper!
