About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Villa by the Sea; Escape the Ordinary
You’ll love the timeless elegance of this beautifully kept property. Like many classic Scottish coastal homes, it weaves together historic detail and the understated grandeur of the past with all the comfort and charm of the present. Set on one of Broughty Ferry’s most sought-after streets, the villa overlooks the River Tay, offering sweeping views across the water.
This immaculate four-bedroom home has been thoughtfully styled to offer both space and comfort. From the traditional roll-top bath - ideal for long soaks - to the peaceful outdoor seating areas that catch the best of the light, it’s a welcoming place to unwind after a day exploring. Whether you're here for a short break or a longer stay, it offers the kind of atmosphere that makes settling in easy.
As Voltaire once said, 'We look to Scotland for all our ideas of civilisation', and here, on Douglas Terrace, you’ll find a setting that captures so much of what makes this country special—from its natural beauty and deep history to its food, people, and pace of life. It’s also within easy reach of some of Scotland’s most renowned golf courses, making it a great base for those keen to tee off in spectacular surroundings.
The best of all worlds.
KEY FEATURES
Prestigious address on the shoreline
Stunning views over the River Tay
Stylish and beautifully presented villa
Four spacious double bedrooms
Bright, modern lounge overlooking the river
Fully equipped contemporary kitchen
Luxurious bathroom with roll-top bath
Private gardens to the front and rear with outdoor furniture
Within easy reach of world-class golf courses
This luxurious house sets the bar high in terms of top-quality accommodation coupled with a fantastic location.
Guests will benefit from our Meet and Greet service. You will be met upon arrival and shown around the property to ensure you have the best experience during your stay. Once you have checked out, the same person will review the property and be responsible for returning your damage deposit.
Douglas Terrace is one of the most sought-after streets in the upmarket coastal suburb of Broughty Ferry. Just a short walk from the town centre, you’ll find a vibrant mix of pubs, restaurants, and independent shops. The main street is also home to a range of galleries, cafés, and local businesses with plenty of character.
Down by the water, Broughty Castle is a highlight. Built in 1490 to guard the Tay estuary, the castle now houses a museum detailing the area’s fascinating history and its roots as a fishing village.
For golf enthusiasts, some of Scotland’s most iconic courses- including Carnoustie and St Andrews- are within easy reach, along with several excellent local courses ideal for testing your links game. St Andrews is indeed the heart of golf, but true experiences can be found just across the Tay Bridge; in Broughty Ferry. Escape the crowds, enjoy complete privacy, and return to a five-star retreat and uninterrupted waterfront views after a day on the course.
The nearby sandy beach is a haven for local wildlife, and families will enjoy the popular Castle Green playpark. There are also plenty of local cycle paths to explore the coast at your own pace.
To enhance security during your stay, a Ring doorbell is installed at the front door. This records video of the immediate exterior area only and will remain active during your stay.
Please do let us know if you're interested in us quoting or arranging any airport pick ups, taxi journeys, special occasion trips, meals out or private chefs. We'd be delighted to help out.
