Gate Lodge combines period character with modern comfort in a charming single storey home overlooking the River Tay and its famous bridges. Originally built as the gatehouse to one of Broughty Ferry’s Victorian mansions, the property retains a number of traditional features while offering a relaxed and practical space for a comfortable stay.
Ideal for couples, small families or business travellers, the house is well positioned for riverside walks, the seafront and beach, local shops and transport links. After a busy day exploring the area, you can relax in the private garden or watch the sun setting across the River Tay.
Living Space and Bedrooms
The spacious lounge enjoys views across the River Tay through its bay window and offers a cosy setting for quiet evenings. A dining table seating four is positioned within the lounge area, creating a comfortable space for meals or planning the day ahead. For cooler evenings, the multi fuel fire adds warmth and character.
The property has two bedrooms. The master bedroom is bright and airy, with windows on two sides and a walk in dressing closet. The second bedroom overlooks the rear garden and includes a built in cupboard for storage. Kitchen and Dining
The modern kitchen is arranged across two adjoining rooms at the rear of the house, providing plenty of space for preparing meals. A cocktail table with bar stools offers a convenient spot for breakfast or a quick bite before heading out for the day. A separate utility room leads through to the bathroom.
Bathroom
The bathroom features a stylish walk in shower and is finished to a modern standard.
Garden and Outdoor Space
From the back door you step directly into the private garden. The outdoor space includes terraces, a summer house and a barbecue area, offering a pleasant setting to relax during warmer evenings.
Location
Gate Lodge is located within ten minutes drive of Broughty Ferry, a popular coastal suburb with food shops, cafés and boutiques, as well as a picturesque harbour and shoreline. Nearby Castle Green and the beach offer a great space for families, and you may even spot seals or dolphins along the waterfront. Broughty Castle, dating back to 1490, sits on the seafront and now houses a museum that explores the history of the area.
Broughty Ferry train station provides connections to Edinburgh, Glasgow and Aberdeen, while Dundee city centre is just three miles away. The property also benefits from bus stops directly outside and access to the National Cycle Network Route 1, offering coastal cycling and walking routes.
Dundee itself has developed into a lively coastal city, with attractions including the waterfront development, the V and A Dundee museum, historic ships and a growing food and cultural scene. The surrounding area also offers access to countryside walks, beaches in Angus and Fife, and world known golf courses including St Andrews and Carnoustie.

Wonderful House
This house was a wonderful place for us to stay. It was so spacious compared to the hotels and B&Bs we’d been staying in on our UK holiday. The location is great for trips to St. Andrews, Perth, Aberdeen, etc.

Very enjoyable stay.Would have loved the wood burner to have been in use and the living room curtains able to shut but apart from that all was fine.

Comfortable Gate Lodge
A gate lodge full of character and comfort. The house had everything we needed to base ourselves for 5 days in Broughty Ferry. Very clean, good communication with host, no problems at all, a very nice stay.

Scotland trip
I stayed in this charming and well appointed rental for the first week of my 2 week vacation. The location was great! Easy to pop down to catch the train from Dundee into Edinburgh for day trips. Broughton Ferry was a delightful area with good restaurants. The beds were super comfortable and the bedding very plush. Highly recommend!

Ein kleines Schloß
Einzigartiges Ambiente in diesem kleinen Schloß. Sehr ansprechend und edel renoviert. Außenbereich wg. vielbefahrender Straße etwas laut, aber innen gute Schallisolierung. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

We loved this Gatelodge!
This property is full of character, style and really feels like home. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were spacious. We really enjoyed coffee in the morning outside in the garden with great views of the River Tay and the bridge. It's very easy to find and so fun as a holiday house. The kitchens and bathroom were great with newer appliances. We highly recommend this property to anyone travelling close to Dundee!

Beautiful place, well appointed and very clean
Main thing I appreciated was how clean the place was- with a newly mobile baby in tow that was the part I was nervous about for a holiday rental and no issues at all- spotless. Same goes for kitchen- I've stayed in places where I needed to clean some.otems before use but didn't feel like that here.
Do be aware some.road.noise but it didn't bothere.at all.and we had bubs in the smaller room to the side. A few more.mugs would be magic!
Thank you- would stay again.

Lovely property
This is lovely property, warm and comfortable in a good location with a lovely coastal walk near by. The property managers were attentive and in regular communication but I felt that there was some things which could be improved such as installing lighting out the back of the house and to include in the online listing that although there is a wood burner but guests are not allowed to use it.

This place has charm but we were unable to get a decent night’s sleep in a week here. The bed is very small and old, so we constantly rolled into the middle. The room needed full blackout blinds to block the light from the streetlights and muffle some of the noise from the road. It felt like midday at two in the morning. A bit of money spent in this room would transform the stay. Good kitchen generously equipped and sweet, if shabby, outdoor space.

My spirits fell a little when I walked in
Other reviews have said it all really.
It comes down to how you are treated as a guest. The owners do not treat you with respect by supplying charity shop mismatched china which is chipped, cracked and stained. I’m not going to list all the niggles but will just say we enjoyed our stay despite not because of the property.
More than happy to supply that list if the owners want to improve things!

Charming period lodge
Property was mostly as advertised. Check in process was easy and property had all the very basics (e.g., hand soap, washing liquid, new sponge). Could do with a deep clean (quite a bit of dust in the nooks and crannies). Parking spot is very narrow and requires a bit of skill to reverse into. Would be difficult for anything larger than a compact car (and for drivers not accustomed to having the driver’s seat on the right hand side). There was quite a bit of noise from the major roadway passing right outside the main bedroom. Would be tough if you’re a light sleeper. Would have appreciated blinds or drapes in the main bedroom that closed completely (ideally blackout as the room was fully lit at sunrise) and would have loved an extra towel or two (was only provided a single bath towel and hand towel for each of us).

Dangerous
I and consider that this should be taken off the letting market until improvements are made. The front door cannot be used. If fire occur in the kitchen there is escape without passing through the fire. No windows can be opened as a means of escape. This is a major risk to life. The property only seems to be cleaned on top surfaces which can be seen with thick dust under furniture. A deep cleaning is required.Cushions on sofa require cleaning. Poor cleaning of oven. Whilst the bedding was laundered clean there were stains on it. Outside does not appear to have been swept for months particularly outside the back door which is littered with discarded cigarette ends. Some cups so heavily stained by tanning are disgusting. Water left in the kettle to stagnate. if property not let. Squares of wallpaper in the entrance area looked like a patchwork quilt. Ceiling light in living room constantly flickers and too annoying to be used. No hooks in bathroom for garment hanging.
Photographs show that the property is situated on a roadside but fails to mention that is the main A930 Dundee Road with constant heavy traffic day and night outside the bedroom window. Fails to mention that the parking area has extremely tight turn in and the gate is difficult to open as it wedged by bricks on the inside due to the opening latch being broken and just laid on the ground. No information is provided for the location of amenities as to where to buy bread, milk etc. No guide for dual controls of TV
