This was a lovely introduction to Scotland for this traveler... a small, homey, warm guest house located in a 19th century home converted to an inn with a welcoming, informative hostess (who owns and manages Roseneath with her son). Rooms and baths are quite small, but charming in an old-fashioned way. Fluffy comforter on a comfortable mattress. Short walk to... More

Thank you Sarah for making our stay so enjoyable. We have stayed at Roseneath on many occasions and it always makes us feel like we have come home. We have been coming to Oban now for many years and would never choose to stay anywhere else but this B&B. Easy walking distance to the Ferry Terminal and the centre of... More

Eight of us touring Scotland together, spent three nights at Roseneath. Sarah was a great hostess. Rooms were as advertised. If is says small... they are. Breakfast was very good. The location perfect. Sarah provided great suggestions for dinner spots.

Having read some of the reviews here I guess we were just expecting more from this bed and breakfast. Our welcome was warm and the hostess chatty. Here pretty much ends the positives. Our room was cramped and very outdated. The bed was lumpy and the linen didn't seem very fresh. Then came the bathroom. Disgusting. The bathtub had visible... More

The rooms were small, but very comfortable and quiet and the breakfast was the best I had on the trip (try the blueberry pancakes). The staff were very friendly and helpful. The location was great, it was a short walk to the shops and restaurants. Oban is a delightful little town, I wish we had more time. When we go... More

A friend and I have just spent ten nights at Roseneath, a really comfortable and homely guest house where we were very well looked after by our host Sarah. Our rooms were spotlessly clean and the beds so very comfortable. We both had wonderful sea views from our rooms, and I even had a small sitting room attached to mine.... More

This is a smashing guest house. Sarah is a fantastic host with much local knowledge as well as doing super breakfasts! The rooms facing the front have fantastic views over the harbour. The rooms are furnished to a high standard and the beds very comfortable. A nice extra is a fridge on the landing for guests' use. There is a... More
