Affordable car rental in Oban for a weekend trip?

Emma Thompson•2 months ago•429 views•Scottish Highlands

Has anyone hired a car from Oban recently? I'll be arriving by train and need to rent a car for about a week to explore the surrounding areas. Looking for recommendations on which companies have offices near the station, typical costs, and any tips for getting the best deal. Also, are there any particular models you'd recommend for the local roads?

We had a good experience with Avis last year. They offer free delivery to your accommodation which was really convenient. Their staff were helpful and the booking process was straightforward.
