Oban holiday park - looking out onto the isle of kerrera and onto mull in the distance.

Scenic site 10 minutes' drive from Oban, with views to Kerrera island
Ferries, whisky distillery and horse riding within 10 mins' drive
Play area and shop on site; dogs welcome

For some folk, Oban is a jumping-off point for trips to the spectacular Scottish islands; for others, it’s a very handy location simply for sinking into the gentle pace of rural Highlands life while still keeping convenient access to shops and other amenities. Whichever of those groups you fall into, a fine base awaits at Oban Holiday Park, a spacious and peaceful site in Gallanchmore, about 10 minutes’ drive south of the Oban. It’s a scenic spot indeed, with views out over the sea to the island of Kerrera (which you can take a closer look at by boarding a ferry less than a mile away). There are plenty more options for island hopping from the harbour in Oban, whether you’re doing a grand tour or just taking day trips. The town also has a good collection of shops, restaurants and things to do, including a cinema and golf course – not forgetting the option for a stroll along the seafront at sunset, watching the boats bobbing in the harbour. Staying here isn’t all about the islands, of course – there’s a whole heap of things to see on the mainland too, including castles, gardens and a whisky distillery. Activities are plentiful too, with pony trekking and scuba diving close by as well as a good choice of places to go for walks and bike rides. On site, all is nicely convenient too, with a small food shop, chemical disposal and modern toilets and showers; there’s also a play area where the kids can have a good run about. The site is supported by natural water springs, so you'll need to boil any water you intend to consume or drink bottled water instead.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: A semi wild beautiful/stunning location. Even in the rain. 😅
Loved the fact we could choose where we pitched up. Pitched up right beside the Loch. Very dog friendly.
We only used the toilet facilities, which were spotless. We didn't use the kitchen area as we like the novelty of cooking outdoors but really great that it was an option.
Sadly we had to cut our stay short due to the weather. But that's the joys of camping.
We will most definitely come again and recommend to friends.
Thank you.

Liked: Staff were friendly when we arrived
Its location near to Oban

Disliked: Overpriced site that is clearly developing its static mobile home business but couldn’t seem bothered with their touring site .
Pitches were on the whole sloped , grass uneven and uncut .
Facilities block were clean but in need of TLC . Some outdoor washing up facilities had no hot water .
It’s location though good from Oban didn’t allow a walk around the loch

From 3 weeks of touring Scotland and the Islands this was the most expensive and in places was a building site

Liked: It becomes a mobilhome-park en besides that an campsite. The road to the campsite is narrow. It is ridiculous that you have to pay extra for using an awning. There is anough space for everyone!

Disliked: The sanitairy block was cleaned at 9 o'çlock in the morning when everybody is just awake and wants a shower or a WC.

Liked: Not much

Disliked: Could not use water for drinking as there was a risk of pollution, therefore could not fill up tank.
Heavy earth works until 20.30 hours in the evening using bulldozer and tractors
Day-light street lighting on high lamp posts in the middle of a green field which had no road, bad light pollution no dark sky's unnecessary
Field not level

Liked: The view.

Disliked: Ok, this was are 4th stop on our 4 week tour of Scotland with 2 more sites to visit.
Honestly if we had not another 2 sites to go to we would have come home after the first night.
Firstly, when we arrived we were told the best places to pitch up did not have electricity, but it was being worked on.
Next, the Pitchup advertisement for Oban holiday park clearly states “internet access “ and “Free WIFI”. There is no such thing for the touring pitches. This is clearly false advertising and a blatant lie.
Next, the site is clearly cashing in, on the lucrative static caravan market and as such there is a lot of earth moving during the day. Large earth moving machinery going constantly during the day, so unless your a huge “Goldrush” fan or love hearing excavators and rock trucks all day every day, don’t say you weren’t warned!!
The wash, toilet and shower blocks stink of excrement and when the wind blows you get it all over the touring pitches.
The site has a “ Nature walk and dog exercise area. As we were travelling with our 2 dogs we were looking forward to this. Unfortunately you honestly need climbing equipment, ropes and crampons to scale it and it has a rock face that would scare Bear Grills in his best day.
There are no laundry facilities and the water is not fit for human consumption, which we had prepared for, however even our dogs were unwell from drinking it.
In summary, we wouldn’t stay here again if you paid us the booking fee three times over

Liked: A lovely little site 2 1/2 miles outside Oban easily walking distance down a very pleasant lane.

Disliked: The shower/toilet block was kept clean but the floor was always wet around the urinals. Don’t over know if it was water coming from the shower curtains or the urinals overflowing.

Local attractions

Getting out to see the surroundings? There are lots of lovely walks to be done nearby, or you can hire bikes in Oban (10 minutes’ drive) for scenic cycle rides. Achnalarig Riding Stables (10 minutes) is another option, for pony and horse riding lessons or treks – or you might like to see what’s out at sea by joining a scuba trip from Puffin Dive Centre (five minutes’ walk). Once you’ve viewed Kerrera from your pitch, head up the road (five minutes’ drive) to board a ferry over to the island – there’s a great seven-mile walking trail that runs from the harbour and will show you some of the island’s best bits. For other islands, it’s a 10-minute drive to Oban harbour, where services run to Lismore, Mull, Iona and Coll as well as more far-flung destinations. Back on the mainland, you may like to stop by at Dunstaffnage Castle (20 minutes), the Green Shoots garden (15 minutes) and Cruachan Dam Visitor Centre (35 minutes) – and don't forget a dram at Oban Distillery (10 minutes)…
