The sound of gulls carries across Arbroath's harbour in the morning, mingling with the smell of the famous smokies curing in sheds along the waterfront — you're staying right in the heart of Scotland's fishing-town heritage here, not tucked away in a field somewhere.

This one suits people after a proper roof and a warm bed rather than canvas — the guest house offers traditional B&B comfort, while a camping pod out back gives you the sleep-under-something-solid option if you want a bit more independence. Dogs are welcome by arrangement, so worth a call ahead if you're bringing yours along. Arbroath itself is brilliant for coastal walks, the clifftop trail to the red sandstone abbey ruins, and yes, tracking down the best smokie for breakfast.

It's a straightforward setup — year-round opening means you can base yourself here in any season, campfires need checking on arrival if the pod's your choice, and the vibe is more harbourside stopover than countryside retreat. Handy if you're walking the Angus coastal route or just want a friendly base with the town's chippies and pubs five minutes away on foot.

Arbroath to Auchmithie Coastal Path

Follows dramatic clifftop paths with moderate inclines along Angus's rugged coastline, passing Red Head sea stack and offering sweeping North Sea views. The route involves some steep sections and uneven ground, making it unsuitable for buggies and challenging for young children – older kids who are confident on hills will enjoy the adventure. Dogs welcome on leads near cliff edges. Perfect for spotting seabirds, exploring a working fishing village, and experiencing some of Scotland's most specta
