There were five friends staying at the property. We all agreed that the property was very well maintained and we loved the nautical theme throughout the house! The house was exceptionally clean. The shower was fantastic. It was ideal for our stay. We were extremely cosy with the fire in the lounge when it was very wet and cold outside. The views are STUNNING! The locals were very friendly and helpful. It was big enough for us all to have a bit of room to ourselves.

Property info

Colourful former lifeboat house makes for an ideal and unique beachfront holiday home. You are just steps away from the beautiful golden sands of Westhaven with its sheltered shallow bay. It is is perfect for simply relaxing, and the views are stunning. And with four bedrooms there’s plenty of room for family and friends too. Should you want a break from the beach, it’s only 10 minutes' walk to the centre of Carnoustie with shops and restaurants plus, of course, its famous links golf courses.

Neighborhood info

Set at the end of a row of fishermen’s cottages in the peaceful coastal community of Westhaven, the Beach Boathouse is an ideal location for a holiday home. There is a sandy beach right in front of the property and you can walk or cycle for miles in each direction. The beach itself is surrounded by rocks, which protect it from the strongest currents, making it a good place for bathing in the relatively shallow water and for exploring rockpools at low tide. The lovely town of Carnoustie is minutes away with several local shops, pubs and cafes. There’s a train station on the main East Coast railway line between Aberdeen and Edinburgh making rail travel an easy option. You are also around 13 miles from Dundee and the road network is excellent road making exploring by car a breeze. The local area has lots of interesting attractions including the V & A museum, plus shopping and entertainment centres in Dundee, and of course several first class golf courses including Carnoustie and St Andrews, situated across the Tay estuary. Welcome to the Beach Boathouse and have a fantastic stay!
