Four Oaks Bed & Breakfast, Oban, Scotland

How do I make a booking?
Please read the Four Oaks Terms and Conditions.
On each page below the menu there is a Check Availability button, this lets you see which rooms are available on which dates and the associated room rates.
Select your preference for dates and room options, selecting double or single occupancy. Then select any extras (e.g. use of EV car charger, photography course etc).
After that fill in your contact details to complete the booking process. Please enter your planned arrival time if you can (we understand this may be uncertain).
You will be sent a confirmation email with your unique booking reference (please quote this if you need help with your booking). A follow on email will have your invoice with payment details.
Payment is via bank transfer or PayPal if you prefer (you don't need a PayPal account).
If you have a PayPal account then payment can be made via the Four Oaks PayPal Me page.
If you don't have a PayPal account then please ask us to email you an invoice with a payment link.
Do you have a contact phone number?
We don't have a landline and the house is so well insulated that it can block mobile phone signals. There is a mobile number that is shown when booking but it relies on WiFi calling when we're in the house and may often go to voice mail. For this reason the easiest way to get hold of us is usually by email.
What are the check in and check out times?
Check in 16:00 to 18:00.
Breakfast 08:00 to 09:00 (those needing a prompt start can request a special early breakfast from 07:00).
Check out by 10:00.
If you need a late check in (say due to a ferry or flight etc) this is normally possible, by arrangement, please just contact us to confirm.
What are your COVID precautions?
For more details please see Four Oaks Covid Information.
We have been part of the We’re Good to Go scheme but please note that this scheme has now ended.
Is there a newsletter mailing list?
There is a newsletter with discounts and sepecial offers and to keep you updated on news.
To be added to the list, please just email with your full name.

Do you welcome cyclists?
Yes, we very much welcome cyclists.
We are in an ideal place, being located on National Cycle Network 78, known as The Caledonia Way which runs 234 miles from Campbeltown to Inverness, through some amazing scenery, including the beautiful Glen Lonan.
Bicycles can be left in our locked garage for secure keeping overnight. We have a drying room for damp clothing and footwear.
Can I charge my electric or plug-in hybrid car?
Yes, we have a 7kw EV charger. You will need a cable with a standard Type 2 (IEC 62196 / Mennekes) connector to use the charger. There will be a fee depending on usage. As we have two rooms but only one EV charger please let us know if you plan to use it when booking to avoid disappointment.
What birds do you have?
