We were extremely happy with our 2-day stay at the Aspen Lodge. The food, service, cleanliness were excellent and we were warmly greeted and taken care of from the minute we arrived until we left. The location is quiet and serene yet close enough to Town to take full advantage of the local amenities.

A wonderful option in Oban!

Carol and Bob are fantastic warm hosts with a lovely, clean home and great suggestions for things to do in and around Oban. They also served the best breakfast we had in Scotland bar none- including some well rated places in Edinburgh. I highly recommend their B&B when visiting Oban and would visit again!
An excellent breakfast indeed!

We had an amazing stay at Aspen Lodge. The hosts, Carol and Bobby, were helpful and attentive from the moment we got there. Full of suggestions to help make the most of our stay. Our room was clean, tidy and comfortable. The view was amazing! We couldn't stop looking out of the window! Breakfast was great.

Every detail attended to and more!!

An absolutely top notch B&B! Carol is attentive to every small detail, from locally made chocolates delivered to your room every day, to robes available if you wish to use them, to a small deck outside the room to enjoy the rural view. Carol loves what she does and it shows! Thanks Carol, we will remember our stay at Aspen Lodge 😊

Carol and Bobby are the perfect hosts - very welcoming and they really want you to enjoy your stay. The views from Aspen Lodge are as breathtaking as anywhere in Scotland. It is a 5 minute drive to Oban where there is plenty to see and do. The room was first class in every respect and the breakfast was also top quality. Very highly recommended!

We can't thank Carol & Bobby enough for how welcome me were made at Aspen Lodge. We stayed here for the first few days of our honeymoon in Scotland and upon our arrival we were immediately made welcome and shown around the Lodge. It was very well kept, clean and tidy and the views surrounding were breath-taking. When Carol found out that we were on our honeymoon she went the extra mile to make sure the time spent at Aspen Lodge was special. From a bottle of Champagne to tastings of the Whiskey from her personal stash from when she worked at the Distillery. Finally, the Breakfasts were amazing. You have to try the Bacon and Waffles! and the Full Scottish Breakfasts were cooked to perfection and all Locally Sourced! Thankyou so much! Already planning our next visit! Tom & Lauren

We had a wonderful stay at the lodge. Very peaceful and the view of the countryside is breathtaking! The breakfast was delicious and our hosts made sure we had everything needed. Loved the bar cabinet and the selection of gin, whisky, beer and wine. It was great to take a gin and tonic and a whisky after our long drive. We did not want to leave 😃, we would of stayed longer! Thank you Carol and Bobby for your hospitality Merci 🙏
