Established by accident in 1998 West Coast Cottages is a small, local, independent family run holiday letting agency specialising in the provision of privately owned luxury self-catering holiday cottages in and around Oban, Argyll, a truly unique and unrivalled location, they provide you with the perfect comfortable base from which to enjoy this beautiful Scottish land of mountains, lochs and islands. Bourne of 30 years’ previous experience in the Scottish Hospitality Industry and started when the family bought their first property, Pitstruan, an alluring property perched on the water’s edge of Loch Feochan with fantastic sea views, nestled in the serenity of Lerags Glen yet within a few miles of the bustling town of Oban, “The Gateway to the Isles”. Following on from the success of Pitstruan Cottage, other property owners in the area asked Colin to market and or manage their properties at times when they weren’t able to. Over the years this arrangement turned out to be very successful and West Coast Cottages quickly grew to the thriving business it is today.

Blackmount House is a very attractive and cosy house, situated in a peaceful and quiet area of Oban - yet very convenient being only a 5min drive to Oban town centre. It’s the perfect place to stay if you want rural, yet still close enough to the town centre with easy and cheap taxi back and forth for restaurant/pub visits. Comfortably sleep 6 guests in 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms with an additional hot tub and suana. As you walk through into the property there is a bright open plan kitchen dining space with patio doors leading to out to the garden area, which is great for BBQs, reading, drinks and catching up on the day’s events.

Quiet semi rural location yet only 5mins from Oban town centre - best of both worlds
