Response from the owner I am sorry you did not enjoy the town of Oban or your stay at Elmbank. Just to note on some points, you were told on booking where to park your car, just directly outside the main gate as the driveway is for the private house. Full instructions on how to operate the heating are in the guest directory, but if you were finding it difficult you only had to ask and I would have helped you, but you didn't. The bed is kingsize and not lumpy. The Mira shower is only 3 months old and is one of the best electric 10.5kw showers available on the market today. I have just tested the Nescafé Dolce Gusto coffee machine and it is working perfectly. The towels in the bathroom are of standard size and if you wanted them warm you could have used the heated towel rail. We do not leave any fresh products in the apartment other than fresh flowers.

“Good location.”
Clean and tidy, no problems. Would benefit from tree branches being trimming over decking area to let in more sunlight.
