The sandstone glow of Arbroath's harbour catches the morning light, and from here the smell of smokies drifts inland when the wind turns easterly.

Maulesbank Guest House offers both traditional B&B rooms and a camping pod for those who prefer a canvas-free night under the stars — ideal if you're walking the coastal path, chasing early tides for sea fishing, or just want a base between the cliffs and the old abbey town. Dog owners should ask ahead, as policies vary depending on where you're sleeping. It's open all year, which makes it a solid winter bolthole when the coast empties out and the light turns silver over the North Sea.

Facilities aren't spelled out in detail, so it's worth checking what's included when you book. Campfires depend on pitch type and conditions — ask when you arrive. The vibe here is straightforward and unfussy: a proper roof if you want it, a pod if you don't, and Arbroath's chippies and clifftop walks five minutes away.

Arbroath to Auchmithie Coastal Path

Follows the dramatic Angus cliffs between two historic fishing villages along rugged coastal terrain with moderate climbs and uneven, sometimes narrow sections. Not suitable for buggies or very young children due to cliff edges and steep drops, though older kids who stay close will love the sea caves and rock formations. Dogs welcome but keep on leads near livestock and cliff edges. Stunning red sandstone scenery, abundant seabirds, and proper Scottish coastal drama make this a memorable shoreli
