“most wonderful experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 October 2011

person found this review helpful

My family stayed at Blarcreen during the last stages of a unforgettable holiday in Scotland. We had stayed at many high end B & B's across the country but this was the best by far. Sian and Garry are new to the business, but their warmth and generosity was very welcoming. The views, the food and the decor was first class, and it was immaculately clean... Due to the distance from town, it would be wonderful if they could serve an evening meal. But either way, we will be back on our next trip to the U.K. !!

“Best ever guest house”

person found this review helpful

Myself and my parents stayed on the nights of 15th & 16th September and received a very warm welcome with tea & cake after our long drive from Aviemore. It was my first visit to Scotland and the final leg of a week's touring. I'm so glad Blarcreen House was the last leg of the holiday as any other guest house or hotel would not have been up to the standard we experienced in Oban. Thankyou Sian and Garry for being perfect hosts, we will come again!

“Lovely Location, Great Views fantastic room”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 August 2011

Stayed here last week, the location is great if you like rural but only takes about 20 minutes to get to Oban to find somewhere to eat. Think they should possibly offer evening meals as they offer a wine list etc. Service, breakfast and room were all great.

“RELAXING BED AND BREAKFAST”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 June 2011

My husband and I toured Scotland in June this year and stayed for two nights at Blarcreen House. We were made to feel very welcome there and enjoyed every part of our stay. The Victorian house had so much character and there was every mod con necessary for a comfortable stop.

Shelley and Steve were very friendly, accommodation great, food good and it was really relaxing to retreat there after two days' sight-seeing in the area. Slightly more expensive than other b & b's but worth it!
