Oban divers is a fab site - we've stayed there a few times. But it is a little out of the way from the town and I can't remember there being a pub nearby - worth the taxi fare though !

Hi

I haven't stayed at cashel site at LL but have used their sister site at aberfoyle and found it to be a lovely wee site and is just about 1 mile along cycle track from Aberfoyle where you have quite a few pubs and resturants and shops.

I have stayed at the divers for a couple of nights about five years ago and thought it was a lovely site but when u say you want to be 100m from dumfermline i think the drive from oban would take a while.

Hi Vango you could try Seaview caravaning & camping... it's not in Oban itself - just outside at Benderloch which is a lovely wee village complete with 'pink' shop & caravaning & camping store.

For anyone especially those with a severe disabliity who wants a trip to Oban and isn't fussed about taking the tent/caravan/motorhome, (IMHO everyone should visit Oban & the area at least once in their lifetime!)... check out Port Selma lodges.  2 Beautiful log cabins with full wheelchair access, (including loads of space, ramps & roll in shower rooms with all rails required) magnificent views and in all, honesty, couldn't be better cleaned and equipped!  (we're talking every imaginable gadget to make your holiday relaxed and stress free)  Right down to all toiletries you could possibly wish for!  Jan & Willie have gone into this not to pass time for their own retirement but because they were saddend by the huge void in the market for people with disablilities, that is not to say the lodges are not suitable for all but they just made especially sure they were suitable to those who had certain difficulties.

P.s. I'm not related! lol But having been, with two adults confinded to wheelchairs, we took a 'helper' and we were so impressed with the fact in future we honestly wouldn't need one... the lodges have been thought out so well.  I honestly couldn't recommend them highly enough to all but especially to anyone with a substanial disablity including paralegia.
