Great place for family get together.

Great location overlooking the sea. Lovely house - best bit having the lounge upstairs to get the best views. Easy walking distance into Carnoustie, and short drive to lovely Lunan beach. Nothing we can think of!

Wonderful Seaside Beach House

We absolutely loved our stay. The house was clean, comfortable, and inviting. There were all of the amenities that we could ever need and the view we woke up to each morning was priceless. And the location afforded both convenience and walkability to town. It was wonderful fornour grouo of 4 adults and two kids.

Magical Location

Wonderful property in a perfect location. If you want to be hyper critical you might want to complain about the furniture and kitchen facilities being in need of an upgrade, but if you want to enjoy your vacation, these are such minor issues that shouldn’t bother you at all.Our USA and U.K. children and grandchildren had a “whale of a time” and we would not hesitate to return.

Boathouse Review

Fantastic setting and great house. Only drawback was that “laundry facilities” did not include a dryer so we had to find an open laundromat to get our clothes dry.

Carnoustie and beyond

My family come from Carnoustie area so know it well. We came up from Manchester for a break and a special family gathering . Friends came too who never visited before and they were over the moon with the house and surrounding areas . The Beach BoatHouse made the trip just that little bit more special. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Stay

Location superb. House is excellent for family stay. The house is spacious, clean and has a great vibe to it. The balcony is brilliant and the lounge is great. The beds are comfy and the kitchen is big enough for a gathering. Nothing really. The house is superb and the location is fantastic. We really enjoyed it. Carnoustie is lovely and the train station nearby makes everywhere accessible. I would make a communication with the client the week before just to confirm details and instructions. The experience we had was great. Thank you.
