About this property
Castle Beach - Spectacular Victorian Villa
Set right by the beach in Broughty Ferry, Castle Beach is a 3 storey Victorian villa of immense character. ‘The Ferry’ is on the East Coast of Scotland, on the outskirts of Dundee.
Broughty Ferry esplanade is a lovely walk. Along the beachfront you will find a Broughty castle to explore as well as several parks/green spaces and a nature reserve. Water sports are popular too with lessons available. There are plenty of spots to watch the dolphins and a boat trip if you’d like to get closer. The space Castle Terrace is a 5 minute stroll to the centre of The Ferry and a 15 second saunter to the sandy beach. It has plenty of period features with ornate cornicing in the main open plan family room and in one of the two master bedrooms. There is a sweeping staircase that turns from the ground floor right up to the attic conversion which is now a huge bedroom with it’s own ensuite bathroom. The views from the upper level are remarkable. One one side they scan across the beach. On the other they look above the rooftops of the village.
The property contains
Open plan living/kitchen/dining with woodburner Master Bedroom 1 (superking bed, working open fireplace, window seat with river views) Master Bedroom 2 (kingsize bed, double sofa bed, ensuite 4 piece bathroom with freestanding tub) Bedroom 3 (split level mezzanine sleeping 2 in a double on the upper level with an additional single bed beneath) Bedroom 4 (woodland styled room with single bed and additional trundle bed to make a twin) Bedroom 5 (a smaller room to the back of the house – single bed) Master Bathroom (another room with stunning views, a double size bathtub and separate shower enclosure) Snug/Study (a haven for working from home with working fireplace) Cloakroom (plenty of space to hide coats and shoes within cupboards) WC (wallpapered with a historic map of Dundee just before Castle Terrace was built) Front and rear gardens – the rear with built in brick barbeque, feature seating and table and outdoor shower) Garage for storage
There is a plentiful selection of games, DVDs and subscription to Netflix. There is also a piano in the hallway which guests are welcome to enjoy.
Broughty Ferry is the perfect spot for a Scottish holiday. St Andrews is just a 20 minute car journey and the capital Edinburgh is an hour away. A variety of other beauty spots like Glencoe are potentials for day trips.

We had a very enjoyable stay in this lovely house. Very comfortable with lots of really nice wee touches. The home is spotlessly clean and well stocked with all that’s needed for a holiday stay. Welcome pack and games was well appreciated by our kids. We hope to come back next year.
This fantastic coastal home was an absolute joy to stay in, with attention to detail and gorgeous views with both sunrises and sunsets enjoyed by all.
This is a unique property with plenty space for a group of 10 people.
Access to the beach at Broughty Ferry just a stones throw away makes for a beautiful stay.
Thanks to our host and her absolutely flawless communication and care. We will be back!
A superb villa equipped to a very good standard . It was ideal for our family get together over the weekend. Would definitely recommend and would certainly stay again.
