About this property
Clifftop Cottage - A Seaside Sanctuary
Clifftop Cottage presents a charming two-bedroom semi-detached retreat nestled in the picturesque village of Auchmithie, near Arbroath.
Positioned right on the cliff's edge, (although you will have to venture outside to capture the best views - you won't want to miss out on them), this former fishing abode is a mere 30 meters from the beach access steps, with an array of clifftop pathways at your doorstep.
Inside, the accommodation is conveniently laid out on a single level, with the highlight being the impressive open-plan living area and kitchen. The space boasts a semi-vaulted ceiling reaching full roof height, adorned with exposed beams and two expansive VELUX windows, ensuring ample natural light even on overcast days.
A freestanding wood-burning stove adds warmth and ambiance, while a generously sized dining table beneath one of the roof windows offers a delightful setting for meals. For entertainment, a Samsung Frame TV adorns the wall.
The cottage features two bedrooms - one double and one twin - both offering partial sea views over neighboring rooftops. The shower room is equipped with a walk-in enclosure featuring a rainfall shower head, ideal for rinsing off after beach adventures, with underfloor heating providing comfort during colder months.
Auchmithie is a haven for both humans and dogs alike, and Clifftop Cottage welcomes furry friends, providing dog bowls for their convenience. While the cottage doesn't have its own garden, a shared courtyard with neighbouring properties offers a pleasant outdoor space. Nearby, public benches and a picnic table provide ideal spots to enjoy coffee or soak up the sun.
Following a thorough renovation, Clifftop Cottage now presents a blend of traditional charm with modern comforts. Guests can expect a well-appointed kitchen, luxurious bathroom, and tasteful furnishings throughout.
Facilities include:
Open-plan living room/kitchen with wood burner (logs provided)
Modern, well-equipped kitchen with induction hob, oven, grill, washing machine, and dishwasher
Dining table and four chairs
Underfloor heating in the bathroom
Dog friendly
One double bedroom and one twin bedroom
Free on-street parking
We look forward to welcoming you to Clifftop Cottage!
