Talmine Post Office Flat

WELCOME TO TALMINE POST OFFICE FLAT

OVERLOOKING TALMINE BAY AND RABBIT ISLANDS This self contained flat is located above Talmine Post Office and Stores, with panoramic views over Talmine Bay and the Rabbit Islands.

The property has its own private entrance at road level, and consists of one single, one twin bedded and one double bedroom, kitchen, dining room, bathroom, and large dining room lounge. It is fully centrally heated and double-glazed with a solid fuel fire in the lounge. Parking is by the door, and the fully enclosed private garden is fitted with a washing line.

Talmine is a small crofting community at the mouth of the Kyle of Tongue.
The area is suitable for hill walking, bird watching, fishing, flora or just getting away from it all in the peace and quiet of the countryside. We are a short walk from the nearest of many beautiful sandy beaches and coastal paths. Boat trips to the Islands can be arranged where a number of seals and seabirds can be seen at close proximity. Pony Trekking, swimming pool and fitness suite are all within easy reach of Talmine.

Electricity is charged at the going rate, which is 17p per unit used. There is no coin meter, instead, a reading is taken upon arrival and again on departure. Linen can be supplied at a charge of £3 per person, {sheets only} or £5 per person with sheets and towels. Cooking is by electricity, and the kitchen is fitted with a microwave, fridge, washing machine, tumble drier and deep freeze.

Talmine Stores has a selection of fresh fruit and vegetables, freshly frozen beef, lamb, pork, and chicken as well as general groceries, off license, and electronic top-up for your mobile. The post office offers a full range of banking services.

We are situated within easy reach of daytrips to Lochinver in the west and John O'Groats in the east. Some more ambitious guests have done the trip to Orkney, which means a fairly early start.

If you choose spend a holiday with us we feel sure you will enjoy it.
