About

Timpson in Isle of Mull operates from 83 George St, Oban PA34 5NN, United Kingdom, a mainland address that serves the island's ferry traffic. The business is a locksmith, cutting keys and handling lock repairs for customers heading to or from the crossing. Its opening hours run Monday to Saturday, 09:00–17:00, with Sundays and public holidays closed. That schedule suits travellers who need a spare key cut or a lock sorted before boarding a ferry at Oban's terminal. A 4.6/5 score from 30 reviews reflects steady approval from a modest but consistent stream of customers. Timpson is best known for its key-cutting service, a practical stop for anyone who has lost a key or needs a duplicate before travelling onward. First-time visitors can expect a straightforward counter service rather than a browsing visit, with staff handling key duplication and lock work on the spot. The shop's position places it within Oban's main retail stretch, convenient for those arriving by train or bus before the crossing. Nearby places such as Tobermory, Craignure and Salen lie across the water on Mull, reachable by ferry from the town. Summer brings long daylight hours and crowded ferries, so travellers planning a crossing should allow extra time at the terminal. Winter sailings are often cancelled by weather, which makes a flexible itinerary worthwhile. Strong tides surround British islands, and the Channel Islands have some of the world's largest tidal ranges. Grey seals breed around British island coasts, and basking sharks appear in summer surface waters. British islands were fortified in both world wars, and concrete coastal defences still stand on several.
