Aww the Columba hotel Oban. So many happy memories. Me n the scoobs have been coming to Oban for almost all of our relationship. We first came up and stayed at the chalets near the Barn restaurant probably 18 years ago 😳 Bud would have been with us then.
Scoobs has a deep love affair with the island of Kerrera which is a sort ferry ride from Oban. Bud loved going round the island but not terribly keen on the ferry!
We have stayed in quite a few places, bnb - Colmar, Kerryvore etc but we do love the Columba, not uber fancy but decent in the middle of town and 30 seconds from what used to be our favourite restaurant- Eeusk.
This vist we think will be our last staying in Oban. Eeusk was a major disappointment this time it's been on the slide for a few years now sadly. I did give constructive private feedback I hope they listen.
But we deeply love Oban and will be back especially for the seafood shack when it opens for the season.
A major plus was that we talked about and then booked our next holiday! Lismore island in October.
So excited!
Awww Oban we will be back, it has changed but that's the nature of things, instead of hanging on longing for things to be the way they were let's move on and find new things 💕
