Beautiful 3 bedroom house with Hot tub, Sauna and Log burner stove

Blackmount House is a very attractive and cosy house new for 2022, situated in a peaceful and quiet area of Oban - yet very convenient being only a 5min drive to Oban town centre. It’s the perfect place to stay if you want rural, yet still close enough to the town centre with easy and cheap taxi back and forth for restaurant/pub visits.

As you walk through into the property there is a bright open plan kitchen dining space with patio doors leading to out to the garden area, which is great for BBQs, reading, drinks and catching up on the day’s events.

The living room consists of a wood burning stove perfect for cosy nights in sampling some fine Scottish whiskey. For the summer months the living room also has the wide opening patio doors which lead on to the hot tub, outdoor bath, Sauna, and magnificent views into the countryside.

As you make your way upstairs there are three spacious bedrooms.

1 master with ensuite shower room
1 double
1 super king that can be split to make a twin room
Family bathroom with walk in shower
The garden area is all enclosed – perfect for guests with fury animals joining in on the fun. This large garden space also features a large 6-person wood fired hot tub an outdoor hot/cold bath and a sauna room (you may not want to leave this house!). While sitting in the hot tub enjoying a glass of bubbles you have lovely countryside views listening to the wildlife that embraces this property. Patio seating area with garden furniture – ideal for BBQs and dining Al-fresco.

This spacious house comprises of a large utility room, great for when you come back from a day of activities to hang up all your jackets, pull off those wellies and dry the animals down.

Ground floor WC with bath tub.

You have a great choice of walks on your doorstep, one being Glencruitten Woods. This area is a spruce plantation with a good network of forest roads, old tracks and trails and is only a 5 min walk from the house. If you fancy walking into town, it’s a pleasant 30-minute walk or a 10-minute cycle to the seafood capital of Scotland.

* Please note the following - The log burner hot tub will take about 2.5 hours to heat to a hot temperature before use. A reasonable supply of firewood will be available for your stay. Should additional supplies be required they can be purchased at local garages & merchants in town to do you for the hot tub/log burner/firepit.

*Sauna - electric and will take roughly 15mind to heat.

*If you opt in for robes for your stay, please make sure all robes are left in the house at the end of your stay, any damaged or taken will incur a £35 charge per robe missing* thank you for your cooperation.

A home away from home!
Blackmount House exceeded our expectations. It was remote, yet had all the comforts of home. We enjoyed the seclusion and serenity. Ideal for a quiet getaway, yet only a very short drive from the centre of Oban. This property really is a home away from home!

A beautiful, quiet holiday hideaway
We had a lovely week as 5 adults plus dog in this spacious house. Nice to arrive to a welcome basket after a long drive. Really comfortable furnishings and the kitchen was great to cook and be in. We enjoyed the hot tub and sauna as well as local walks and outings. Views are of the hills and trees, which is restful.

Great base for visiting Western Scotland with a five minute drive to Oban. Very spacious with everything provided for an enjoyable stay. Just a suggestion…. The hearth by wood burner a trip hazard (we all tripped on it) especially coming in through outside doors.

Perfect holiday home in wonderful location!
We can't speak highly enough of Black Mount - we are a family of 6 + dog and had the best holiday we could hope for. The whole family loved it. Gorgeous location - spotted deer and pine martens outside the house. Lovely dog walks just minutes away from the house - make sure you find the Cathedral of Trees!....House was so comfortable, had everything we needed not forgetting the sauna, outside bath (great experience - couldn't decide whether to read or just look at the view!) + hot tub... Added bonus NO MIDGES!.. Thank you...

An enjoyable stay
We really enjoyed our stay and will certainly consider a return visit. The house is beautiful with many amenities. It is located in a peaceful glen only a short 5 minute drive from Oban. In the kitchen a spatula and draining spoon for getting, eg cooked vegetables from a pan would be a welcome addition. When we arrived the fridge hadn’t been cleaned properly and the dishwasher hadn’t been emptied. The provided bin liners were way too small and we bought our own. However all these are very minor points, which can easily be improved upon. Overall we’d highly recommend the property to you others.

Review
The 2 sofas in the lounge were uncomfortable and sagging in the middle. The garden, although fenced off, is not secure for small to medium sized dogs.

The best yet!
We had an amazing 10 days holiday at Black Mount. The house and the location was just perfect and exactly what we needed. The facilities were excellent with the combination of sauna, hot tub and not forgetting the outside bath! The location was peaceful and the area around was excellent for walking the dog. Oban was near enough so you could get the vibres of town life if you wanted. There was so much to do - too much choice in some ways. We will definitely be back - thank you

Wonderful holiday
The six of us and our dog had a wonderful holiday at Blackmount House. It is a fabulous property in a great spot, 5 min drive from Oban. The house is really well kitted out and the rooms are a generous size. The photos online don't do it justice as it is a lovely house and everything is of a very high standard. We used the hot tub twice which was delightful. We contacted the host once and they were super responsive. The weather was warm and there was just a little rain. Nearby, we can recommend the pony trekking at Achnalarig, the islands of Kerrera, Seil and Easdale, and the Dunollie Castle. Oban is a lovely town too.

Amazing house in a great location.
Just back from a weeks stay in this beautiful house. Loved the wood fired hot tub, sauna and outdoor bath which my family and I used during our stay. The house is furnished beautifully. All the bedding and towels are of a good quality. We had great weather during our stay so were able to sit out in the garden and admire the view. Great walks on your door step. Oban is a lovely place with plenty pubs, restaurants and takeaways. Walked into Oban from the house a few times and got a taxi back. Cost about £7 and always easy to get one. Would definitely recommend a stay at Black Mount.

A brilliant stay, in a great house, in a marvellous location.
My fiancée and I had a splendid time staying at Blackmount house. The accommodation is tastefully decorated, really spacious and has a very well equipped kitchen. The view from the back of the property is lovely, and it is only a very short drive from Oban, though with the view, it feels like it could be much more remote! The house is just lovely and considering how many it sleeps, is great value. The wood burner in the living room was really nice. After a long day exploring its the perfect spot of relax with a book. There is lots to do in the area. As keen walkers, you are spoiled for choice. We did a couple of munroes, then spent the evening in the wood fired hot tub - the perfect way to unwind. We even got very lucky and were able to see starts from the hot tub. It was a pretty wonderful experience. Oban is a must stop for all sea food fans too. We had some great food, both out in Oban and in the kitchen at Blackmount. Its a short trip to a great fish shop by the harbour. There are some superb sea trips from Oban too. We got the ferry on this occasion to kerrera, and ate at the marina bar there. That island was idyllic. with great views back across to Oban across the picturesque marina, it really is an absolute gem of a place and we were lucky with the weather. We highly recommend staying here and intend to return!
