At The River - A Fairytale Cottage by the Beach

Nestled just a stone's throw from the enchanting Broughty Ferry beach, 'At The River' is a charming Scottish cottage named after the iconic Groove Armada song. This artistic retreat features hidden pieces of artwork inspired by the song, adding a unique touch to the property's cosy ambiance.

Imagine this: after a delightful day exploring local shops, catching up with friends, and enjoying drinks in Broughty Ferry, you savor the famous ice cream from Visocchi's Cafe. You then find yourself strolling barefoot along the sandy shoreline, accompanied by the soothing sounds of the waves. As you approach a pristine white-walled seaside cottage, the warm glow of house lights gently illuminates the pebble stone garden path.


'At The River' is a newly refurbished gem in the heart of Broughty Ferry, Dundee. The refurbishment of this cottage was a labour of love, with meticulous attention to detail to create one of the most stylish and comfortable retreats in Scotland. Every corner of this home boasts something special, from its carefully curated decor to the concealed drawings of Broughty Ferry's landmarks, expertly hand-drawn by a local artist.

The decor of the cottage was stunning. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well equipped. Location was also really good very near the beach, park, shops and cafes etc. Parking was easy right outside. I would definitely stay here again. We enjoyed lovely walks along the promenade. A few minor tweaks needed to make this a top class stay. Hairdryer and remote control not working correctly - both need replaced. Sofa was not very comfortable cushions were flat and worn. Light/ torch needed to help see key box in the dark. On signing into Netflix 2 rude words were on screen from previous users need to be removed. All of the above are easily fixed and once complete this will be a 5 star cottage.
