DIRECTIONS
By Car:
The main road into Oban is the A85 (which links to Fort William, Inverness,
Glasgow and Edinburgh). At the mini roundabout, as you arrive into Oban
town, take the 2nd exit on your left which leads towards the sea. Immediately
turn left into the public car park. Corran House is the 3rd house on your
left as you look towards the sea.
By Bus, Railway, Ferry terminal or Foot:
Keeping the sea on your left side, walk around the bay. At the far end
of the esplanade, just before the roundabout, Corran House is above Markie
Dans Bar on your right. This distance is approx 500meters and should take
about 10minutes to walk.
