  • "Very comfortable apartment in a beautiful location near the Firth of Tay."

  • "We had a lovely week’s holiday at West Deyne."

    It was spacious and comfortable for our family of four, with a well equipped kitchen and everything we needed for our stay. The location is lovely, with the riverside walk close by and the local high street a few minutes walk away. And we were within easy distance of Dundee and many other local tourist attractions.

  • "Very comfortable and clean holiday home."

    So clean in fact that you are requested to take your shoes off after entering. The owners have supplied everything that you would need for an excellent holiday. The villa is large and is ideally situated for access to the town and has a M&S food store within a few hundred yards. Also it is within a few yards of the riverside walkway with again easy access to the town. A secluded garden is great for catching the sun. It is an ideal property to which we will return.

    Everything about West Deyne was spot on. Broughty Ferry is an excellent base for a holiday. There are local attractions, Dundee is on your doorstep with great museums, the countryside in and around Angus is beautiful. We also visited the new Perth Museum which houses the Stone of Destiny.

  • "We have had a lovely confortable stay at West Deyne."

    We found the property to be extremely clean and well maintained (and we left it the same). The owners, although we didn't see them were in touch and were accommodating. They kindly left us milk in the fridge and a basket of Scottish treats which was a lovely touch. We would certainly recommend this property and if we decide to go to Scotland again we would most certainly stay here. Thank you Geoff and Clare x

  • "Very spacious and clean."

    . On the down side one of the bedrooms had no hanging space. Having said that there were plenty hooks in the cloakroom. The house got quite cool in the evenings but the gas fire in the lounge was not in use. Loads of general cupboard space off the hallway. The only complaint we had was there were only 4 dishwashing tablets available for 7 days. It wasn’t a big issue and we didn’t notify the owner. Nice private garden - grass cut but borders neglected. House well located for shops and prom.

  • "The warning about the step from the kitchen was noted but still was a problem early on."

    We placed a chair at the door to remind us of the hazard. Generally for Sykes we did find the use of grey scale instead of black printing on property details a source of frustration. Difficult to read on line and impossible when printed off.

  • "My husband and I stayed in West Deyne last week and we enjoyed everything about it."

    We live in the countryside so the position of West Deyne, just a walk away from Broughty Ferry's impressive shops and a step away from the sea was a lovely change for us.( It was also amazingly quiet). The house itself is spacious, very clean, beautifully decorated and the owners have obviously given a great deal of thought into providing everything which their guests could possibly need. My sister came to spend a few nights with us and she, like me, was impressed by the quality of the pillows and duvets. We went into neighbouring Dundee on 2 occasions to visit the V&A and the McManus Galleries museum and opted to travel by train and bus to avoid spending time looking for parking. Train station and bus stop are just a few minutes walk from West Deyne. This property has everything to recommend it not least the owners who provided a wonderful welcome pack for us and who made it very simple for me to retrieve something I had left behind. All in all West Deyne was a 5 star experience. Elizabeth Smyth.

Perched in the delightful suburb of Broughty Ferry in Scotland is this fantastic two-bedroom, ground-floor apartment set inside a grand Victorian villa, West Deyne.

Ideally located just a short distance from the thriving city of Dundee and all the local amenities, as well as the beautiful Broughty Ferry Beach, West Deyne makes for a fabulous getaway for two couples or a family of four wanting to embark on a Scottish adventure with a bit of character.

Step into the property, where you will be greeted by a spacious boot room, ideal for golf clubs, storing bikes and walking equipment after a day of exploring, as well as a cloakroom; perfect for avoiding those morning queues.

Moving through into the glorious entrance hall, you will find two well-presented bedrooms, a king-size and a twin, both served by an immaculate bathroom where you can indulge in a blissful soak in the bath or wash away the day with a refreshing shower.

The designated chef of your group will delight at the well-equipped kitchen where they can take advantage of the double electric ovens and hob, fridge and microwave to create mouth-watering meals, as well as a handy dishwasher for keeping your space tidy!

Gather around the dining table and savour a flavourful meal, as the wine is poured, and plans are made for the days ahead.

In the morning, wake-up with a steaming cup of coffee, sitting out in the private gardens as you soak up your peaceful surroundings.

Explore the local area, where you will find an excellent selection of pubs and restaurants to suit any taste and budget, as well as well-stocked convenience stores and supermarkets for picking up any ingredients to recreate your favourite holiday meals.

Venture along the new River Tay promenade over to the remarkable Broughty Castle Museum, a superb 15th-century castle housing a museum spanning four floors with fascinating exhibits, as well as boasting stunning views overlooking the River Tay.

Nearby, you will find Pirate Boats, where you can take to the waters and enjoy spotting the local wildlife of dolphins and seals which frequent the shores.

If you’re looking to relax, head straight for the glorious sands of Broughty Ferry Beach, where you can beachcombe the shores, build sandcastles with the little ones or soak up the sun with your favourite book.

If you don’t fancy driving, why not take a train over to the bustling city of Dundee, where you can peruse eclectic exhibitions at the V&A Dundee, step back in time to explore the city’s rich heritage of jute production at Verdant Works or climb aboard the HMS Unicorn where you can wander the decks of a restored 46-gun Royal Navy warship.

For a getaway to Scotland like no other, secure your stay at West Deyne.

About the location

BROUGHTY FERRY

Dundee 4 miles.

Broughty Ferry is a suburb four miles east of Dundee with a good selection of pubs and restaurants. Broughty Castle and Museum, right by the seashore is well worth a visit, established in the 15th-century to protect the estuary, its four floors now house local-history exhibits, covering the story of Broughty Ferry as a fishing village. Just north of Broughty Ferry, at the junction of the A92 and B978, the chunky bricks of Claypotts Castle constitute one of Scotland's most complete Z-shaped tower houses. Take a break in Dundee or Broughty Ferry and be ideally placed for touring, with the best of all worlds right at your feet. Scotland's main cities - Edinburgh, Glasgow, and Aberdeen - are all easily accessible by rail or road. The Angus Glens can be found a stone's throw away, offering hillside and lochs. Championship golf courses are within easy reach, with Carnoustie and St. Andrews both a short drive away.
