About the Property
Escape to Barometer Cottage, a beautifully styled coastal retreat in the heart of Broughty Ferry.

Perfect for up to four guests, this charming seaside cottage blends historic character with modern comforts, offering an ideal base for relaxing breaks, golf trips, and coastal getaways. Wake up to the sea air, stroll along the beach, and unwind in a space designed for comfort and ease.
The cottage takes its name from its seafaring past and the maritime traditions of Broughty Ferry. Once a thriving fishing village, Fisher Street was at the heart of the local industry, with cottages like this one home to fishermen and their families. In 1859, a Fitzroy Storm Barometer was sent to the community to help predict the weather, and in 1881, its readings famously helped save the Ferry fishing fleet from disaster. Today, that heritage is reflected in the cottage’s calm coastal feel and thoughtful design.
