Please note: Don't rely on your sat nav to pinpoint the exact location of the Kimberley Hotel! The map above is more accurate.
The Kimberley is situated in Oban in the heart of Argyll and is in a perfect location for touring the west coast of Scotland. We are more than happy to help out with suggestions for a day/afternoon out and will provide a picnic lunch if required.
