The location and the quirkiness of the place. Our wee boy loved exploring in the house throughout all the different rooms. Especially up in the attic. Location is perfect. Communication from John before which was great. Information book in the property to tell you everything you need to know.
Like the other reviews we were aware the stairs to the attic were going to be steep but we managed fine, the on street parking can be busy but we did manage to get a space further along the street.

The location was excellent and the beds were incredible comfortable.
Some items of furniture were broken and the washing machine wasn't working when we were there.
8.0 / 10.0
Excellent location close to shore front and minutes from wide range of restaurants, bars and shops
Very minor observations e.g. 1 bulb missing from living room light, only 2 wine glasses in a property that could sleep up to 6. And we had to find extra hand soap as dispenser in bathroom was empty. None of these minor
points affected our overall stay

It may be in the description already but the stairs up to the upper floor are a little steep and wouldn't suit everyone.

The location was excellent
The heating came on morning then night
The kitchen was well equipped
The bath room shower was very good
There wasn't wardrobe space up stairs
The single bed was very uncomfortable
The wardrobe down stairs had 2 hangers for 4 adults 1 child hanger. The drawers in the wardrobe didn't open properly because they hit the door
The bathroom door wasn't working properly it shut and we got locked out so had to open it with a spoon
The key pad was not easy to view to get in

Very handy for restaurants and walks around the Ferry.
stairs to attic rooms are essentially a ladder. not suitable for young kids or old folk.

The property is in a good location for pubs and beach walks
It was very tired, dirty and unfinished in many ways
Most of the furniture is dirty worn and tired the beds are absolutely awful and very uncomfortable. The kitchen and oven is very tired abd has been well used, there was some sort of blood stain on the front room wall and stains on the sofa and pillows, the main bed room bed is completely destroyed and is barely useable !
There is also stains down the side of the bed
The upstairs bedrooms are very tired and well used the carpet seems very dirty through the whole apartment too.
We felt we would have been better staying in a hostel for £10 a night really !
Improvements are really needed to this property!
Thr photos need to he updated on booking.com

The location was ideal for us. Broughty Ferry has plenty of amenities. The flat was close to the sea and the fisherman’s tavern.
The stairs to the top bedrooms are very steep. It would be very difficult for someone with limited mobility. However we were aware of this before booking.

Stairs to 2nd bedroom and height of ceiling also.

A beautiful, characterful property with everything you might need for a comfortable stay. In a perfect location to access the seafront walks, and the shops bars and restaurants. Communication with the owners was first class, and they replied to any queries within minutes
Exceeded our expectations.
Nothing we didn't like, although the steep staircase to the upper bedrooms was not for those with mobility or balance problems (or drunk 😂)

Nice house at a good location. We stayed there for 2 nights. First day was so cosy and great with stay.
Second night, heating was completely out. Tried to contact owner and no luck. Struggled with kids.
So can't be happy with stay.
Steep stairs to bedroom were fearful.
9.0 / 10.0
The beds were good. Nice pillows. Coziness and fireplace. Washing machine was very handy.
Mold in shower stall. Supplies not replenished before we got there. A drying rack would be helpful. Stairs! Not all appliances work the same. Directions in book would be helpful. The restaurant, places to visit and transportation info needs phone numbers.

The location was excellent, the flat spotless and extremely well equipped, and our host John couldn’t have been any more helpful.
The attic stairs are too steep and wouldn’t be suitable for children.

Fisherman’s Flat is situated in the delightful historical village of Broughty Ferry. I’d never heard of Broughty Ferry before but now I feel that it will be a place I’ll regularly visit. The flat had everything that we needed. I loved the well stocked kitchen - it had such a homely vibe to it. The shower was hot and powerful and the beds were comfy. I loved the lounge area and appreciated the log burner. A selection of board games and books were available and I thoroughly enjoyed reading through the book about the history behind the street names within the village - it added to the enjoyment of the stay as I could tell the kids the background as we walked around the town.
Broughty Ferry has a lovely front to it, great park for the kids and a good beach. Fantastic restaurants on the doorstep and a really great selection of shops. If you are staying with kids I highly recommend taking them to Dundee Science Museum (15 minute drive), Camperdown Country Park (also 15 minute drive) and If you have a bit of cash to splash the trampoline park (also 15 minutes drive!)
There wasn’t anything that I disliked.

The location was great and flat was clean
Would of been nice if there was a bag of logs provided since there's a log burner, if you aren't travelling by car you can't really go and get any nearby.
Could see simple stuff was provided - tea bags coffee etc however there was only 2 teabags and 5 of us.
The flat was pretty cold when we arrived.
The downstairs bed was very uncomfy and on a slope on the left hand side.

The flats location was even more stunning than the photos showed. On the doorstep is the waterfront and the views are just beautiful.
The flat is comfortable and I imagine in Winter it would be cosy with the fire on. The beds are comfortable and the shower in the bathroom was pretty good.
We met the host when we arrived and he was friendly and sociable. We had an issue with the internet and he was quick to assist.
The area is busy with cars but all the surrounding streets are available to park on so wasn’t an inconvenience.

t Photos on booking.com site for this property are not accurate, so I suggest u change or revisit thisnot a huge issue bot cooking utensils need to be stored easily and replace or clean baking trays and grill so as to enable a family to cook...also
If advertised as for 6.. should have adrquate table and chairs.. and parking especially if u are a blue badge holder is an issue again u should b honest about this

Broughty Ferry is really lovely and the flat is in a brilliant spot.
Tthe space is a little tight for 6 people. We were fine because only there for 2 nights but may not have been that comfortable for more than this. John. Is very helpful and friendly and the flat is in a great location in a great town. There are lovely places to eat, drink, shop and walk and everyone is really nice.

The location was excellent, in the heart of Broughty Ferry. It is within 5 minutes walk of the rail station for transport to Dundee. It is also ideally situated for a golf weekend, with lots of great courses within 30 minutes drive.
It would have been great to see a floor plan in advance but that is a really minor issue!

The location is perfect and the flat itself was spotless and very comfortable.
I stayed here with my groomsmen and best man the night before my wedding. John was great and always easily contactable. Can't fault him.
8.0 / 10.0
excellent location but with the new sea wall being built there is little parking, but it is not generally a problem in this area.
currently, and this is only temporary, there is a lot of construction around the sea wall and so rather noisy but this is only 8am to 4pm

Great location, host great for responding, lovely bathroom and kitchen really well equipped.
Attic rooms are definitely a challenge and wouldn't be suitable for everyone however it is made clear when booking.
