From the traditional roll-top bath - ideal for long soaks - to the peaceful outdoor seating areas that catch the best of the light, it’s a welcoming place to unwind after a day exploring. Whether you're here for a short break or a longer stay, it offers the kind of atmosphere that makes settling in easy.As Voltaire once said, 'We look to Scotland for all our ideas of civilisation', and here, on Douglas Terrace, you’ll find a setting that captures so much of what makes this country special—from its natural beauty and deep history to its food, people, and pace of life. It’s also within easy reach of some of Scotland’s most renowned golf courses, making it a great base for those keen to tee off in spectacular surroundings.The best of all worlds.KEY FEATURESPrestigious address on the shorelineStunning views over the River TayStylish and beautifully presented villaFour spacious double bedroomsBright, modern lounge overlooking the riverFully equipped contemporary kitchenLuxurious bathroom with roll-top bathPrivate gardens to the front and rear with outdoor furnitureWithin easy reach of world-class golf coursesThis luxurious house sets the bar high in terms of top-quality accommodation coupled with a fantastic location.
