About Glenburnie House

Glenburnie House has been run by the Strachan family since 1968 and remains one of Oban's longest-established guest houses, occupying a Victorian building on the esplanade with views across the bay towards Kerrera and Mull. Its 12 en-suite rooms are individually decorated with distinct fabrics and colour schemes rather than a uniform hotel style.

Rooms come with complimentary Wi-Fi, flat-screen televisions and tea and coffee-making facilities, and the guest house operates on a room-only basis, with breakfast and dining available at nearby restaurants along the esplanade and in the town centre.

Its seafront position is a level walk from the harbour, distillery and station, giving guests the quieter esplanade setting favoured by many of Oban's boutique properties, at a guest house rather than full-hotel price point.

Guests mention this accommodation features beautiful, spacious, and clean rooms, many with stunning bay views. They also highlight the comfortable beds, plentiful tea, coffee, and fruit, and convenient free parking. Visitors appreciate the friendly and accommodating staff, as well as the quiet atmosphere and easy walk to town.
