Neighborhood info

The Bensil's countryside location is the perfect starting point for exploring the wonders of Angus, Dundee, Fife, and beyond. There is so much to see and do, with something to suit everyone! Carnoustie is renowned for its world-class golf courses, and enthusiasts will be thrilled to have them just a stone's throw away. Tee off on the championship links and follow in the footsteps of golfing legends. Explore the rich heritage of Angus with visits to historic landmarks such as Arbroath Abbey, Glamis Castle (the childhood home of the Queen Mother), and the ancient Pictish standing stones at Aberlemno. The stunning Angus Glens, including Glen Clova, Glen Doll, and Glen Esk, are a short drive away, offering hikers and nature enthusiasts a playground of rugged beauty, waterfalls, and wildlife.

Here, you can spend the day building sandcastles with the children, taking leisurely strolls along the coast, and for the adventurous souls, even braving a refreshing dip in the North Sea!
