I enjoyed a wonderful two day stay at Stewart Lodge. The views are stunning and the gardens are filled with bird song. There is a lovely outside patio area as well as a communal inside sitting room and kitchen.

Awesome view from room, even in the rain when leaving. I could not recommend here enough so worth the trip and made the experience of travelling to Stewart Island all the more rewarding! Nothing too much for the hosts - offered a wealth of knowledge in a low-key setting.
A must to return to one day ❤️❤️🥂

This lodge does not have resident hosts (owned and run by Real Journeys) which if you are used to the NZ hosting is a bit odd but you are checked in by an employee from Real Journeys and someone is on hand at breakfast time, and they will help you with any queries re trips or restaurant bookings. Breakfast is a cold continental breakfast at a communal table. The lodge has a kitchen that can be used by guests and a lovely lounge and dining area, it feels more like a hostel than a B&B or hotel. We had an end room which had very intermittent Wifi but we just used the lounge instead.
It has stunning views of the bay and is within short walking distance of the local town. However, there is a very steep short walk to the lodge which may be a problem to some people. We found it very comfortable.

This is a small lodge atop a short but steep road in Oban. Very friendly place with nice rooms, communal kitchen for breakfast and drinks. There’s also a laundry to use.
The views are breathtaking as is the island and we were very glad we chose to stay at the lodge.
Much appreciated the help and advice from Lisa

This is a small lodge where you quickly get to know the other guests. The room we had(room one)had a good sized bathroom and bedroom and even a separate dressing room. It was well equipped and the balcony areas had good views over the bay.
The lodge has a living area shared with other guests and a kitchen where you help yourself to continental breakfast in the morning. There is also a phone which you can use free of charge.
It is located via a very steep walk from the village so be aware that if you cannot walk well you may need a taxi to get out at night as no meals are available in the lodge.
Oban is a small village surrounded by walks routes for which you can get advice at the lodge or at a couple of places in the village.
The lodge is owned by Real Journeys so you are able to get up to the minute advice on trips and availability.
We very much enjoyed our stay here and I am happy to recommend it to anyone wishing to stay on the island.

Room tip: Room 1 is probably more private than the others as you have to walk past all the other rooms to get to it
