Beach Boathouse is a distinctive former lifeboat house located directly on the shoreline in the coastal hamlet of Westhaven, beside Carnoustie. Set at the end of a row of traditional fishermen’s cottages, the property sits right on the sand with uninterrupted views across the bay.
With the beach just steps from the door, it is an ideal place to relax by the sea. Guests can watch the water from the large picture window in the lounge or enjoy the coastal views from the balcony, where dolphins are occasionally spotted passing along the shoreline.
The property is also within walking distance of Carnoustie town centre, where you will find local shops, cafés and pubs, as well as the well known Carnoustie Golf Links.

The heart of the home is the bright open plan lounge and dining area overlooking the beach. A large picture window fills the room with natural light and frames the view across the bay.
