Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
If you have submitted a review for a holiday rental property, we may also ask that you provide us with proof of your stay to ensure that your review is attached to the correct rental property.
Holiday rental reviews collected via the VRBO website (formerly Homeaway) and syndicated to the Tripadvisor website are not currently subject to Tripadvisor’s standard moderation processes.
We have just stayed for 3 nights at Katie's Flat. It was our second stay at the flat and it is an excellent little flat.
It was really clean and had everything you could need. The Hot Tub was absolutely amazing
We would definitely recommend it.

Exquisite rental in the quiet hills above Oban
We stayed 2 nights in this immaculate 1 bedroom flat. Everything was perfect! A quick drive to the bustle of town and very near groceries. The host was very nice and right there when we drove up.

Lovely attention to detail and relaxing hot tub!
My partner and I booked Katie’s flat for a birthday weekend away in Oban and it didn’t disappoint. The hostess Catriona was lovely and everything had been thought out thoroughly to make our stay comfortable, including snacks in the kitchen and every amenity we might need.
The flat was immaculate and very comfy; not to mention having a glorious hot tub to unwind in with some stunning views. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for somewhere to stay when visiting Oban.

Beautiful flat
This is a beautiful flat in immaculate condition. It has a hot tub, sauna bath, washer dryer, feather pillows and duvet. The kitchen has everything. We stayed for 5 nights, next time we will stay for a week or more. Oban is a great place to stay for visiting the Inner Hebrides. Catriona is lovely, very welcoming, friendly and helpful.

Loved out stay
While looking for places to stay in oban for a short stay , I wanted 3 things . Good Wi-Fi , a bath and pet friendly. Katie s flat ticked all boxes . The flat was spotless , was in a good location and very good price compared to local hotel rooms .
The owner Catriona lives in the main house next door and was very welcoming.
We loved the bath as we have 2 bathrooms at home with showers only . The added bonus was that it was a spa bath .
An outdoor Jacuzzi is to be fitted shortly by the owner which will make the flat even better for guests . I would really recommend Katie's flat , you won't regret booking it .

Perfect!
My partner and I spent a few days at Katie’s Flat for the last leg of our honeymoon. It was perfect! The flat is so clean and cosy. Catriona is the most thoughtful, kind and caring host. Cannot fault. One of the best places I’ve ever stayed in. Thank you for having us!

Lovely accomodation
We have just stayed for 3 nights at Katies Flat. It is an excellent little flat. It was really clean and had everything you could need. The jacuzzi bath was absolutely amazing! I would definitely recommend it and if we are ever back in Oban it would be our 1st choice.

Just amazing - faultless - loved it
We booked this as part of a holiday touring Scotland and other than a Luxury Hotel this was the best accommodation.
The flat is excellent accommodation. The bedroom has plenty of wardrobe space and a comfortable bed. The bathroom had a large bath, a shower and there were toiletries available and robes.
The kitchen is well fitted and has everything you need. A washer/dryer, dishwasher and all cooking facilities. The welcome pack of milk, juice, biscuits and cake was a treat after a long drive.
The lounge has two sofas and the TV has Netflix which we enjoyed.
It was a home from home and we loved it.

Sets the standard for self catering accommodation
This lovely flat is at the very top end of what can be anticipated for self catering holiday accommodation. Beautifully finished and eqipped, clearly with no expense spared, and spotlessly clean. It proves it is possible to find a really good and luxurious holiday home which accepts dogs, without having to compromise on quality. Can't recommend this flat highly enough.

Beautiful little flat, absolutely spotless, this place was perfect for a stop off on our trip to Mull. Two of us plus our dog stayed for one night and even though we arrived late, we got a warm welcome and this place has all the little touches that make the difference between a standard place and a 4 star. About 1.5 miles out of Oban in a residential area so nice and quiet if that’s what you’re after. Thanks Katie!
