8/10 Good
"Decent prefab house, nice to have two bathrooms including a bath and one an ensuite. Quite old decor/furniture, but did the job. Loved the games, especially the 80s game of life! Functional kitchen although dishwasher needed salt/rinse aid and didn't work on last day. It was clean but a few dog hairs when we swept floor and cobwebs/spiders. Kinlochbervie is a quiet place, there's no pub or anything to do, but house conveniently opposite spa shop. A good base to explore the surrounding area."
