  1. Please can anybody help? I am looking for a reasonably secure place to park my car during the second
    week in Sep so that I can visit Mull on my trike. I will be driving up from Kent so it may be that I
    will also need B&B for one night. Any ideas or offers would be appreciated. Please reply to
    [email hidden] or 'phone 01689 837602

    Thanks in advance Steve CTC membership number 8011065

    I've done it three times. Twice I parked outside a nice B+B with a youngish family running it.
    Anywhere thats free will be fine, esp that late in the season.

    Approximately: streetmap.co.ukstreetmap.dll

    (in words ... where the road signs tell you to go, and then past the swimming pool )

    Only trouble is the direct route to town is down the most evil slope I've ever seen. Not recommended
    even to walk down with a loaded bike.

    A b&b with private parking would be the easiest soln. There is a public car park in Oban and I don't
    think it's a crime hotspot.

    Word of advice - this is a public forum, copied all over the world. Armed with your name and CTC
    membership number, I bet I could get the CTC to give me free advice, change your address etc.

  4. No B&B will mind you parking as it gives the impression that they're popular.
