Lunga
Oban, Argyll

Lunga Estate, a peninsular in the north of Mid Argyll, 4000 acres of rolling hills and small lochs between Loch Craignish and the Sound of Shuna. Some of the most beautiful and least discovered country in Scotland. Shoreline is rugged, indented but not without its gentle coves and beaches. Many islands where seals bask, seabirds nest, otters and eagles are occasionally seen. Lush undulating land with fragments of the Caledonian Forest sheltering a great diversity of wild flowers and animals. Old world and comfortable en-suite B&B accommodation, four self-catering flats within mansion and four stone built, slated estate cottages. Candlelit Dinners can be arranged, with most meals served in the wood panelled Morning Room or the Dining Room.

Oban is a resort town in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, with a population of around 12,000. Despite its small size, it is the largest town between Helensburgh and Fort William and during the tourist season the town can be crowded by up to 25,000 people. In 2003, Oban hosted the 100th Royal National Mod (a Gaelic festival), in anticipation of which many signs were replaced with bilingual versions. Not only was Oban the venue for the 100th Mod but it also hosted the centenary Mod in 1992 (the year it became Royal). The reason for the different dates for the 100th and the centenary being stoppages for the wars. Oban is considered the home of The Royal National Mod as the Mod was first held in Oban in 1892 with 10 competitors on a Saturday Afternoon. The 2009 Mod is to again be held in Oban
