Coorie by the Coast, Direct Beach Access Getaway - Arbroath

We loved everything about the accommodation we where 5 friends over 60 years.

I hate saying there was something we didn't like because we had a fabulous time. The stair access to the top rooms in the property were really inaccessible to anyone with any disabilities so me having bad knees I didn't see upstairs. Luckily 3 of my friends ages two 65 year olds and a 62 year old are fighting fit but to be honest we were terrified of falling down the stairs this was the only thing wrong with this property for us I hope this is helpful going forward thanks

Great location, excellent garden area down to beach for dog. Kitchen well equipped and house clean, decent quality bedding.

Very steep stairs to upper bedrooms and low ceiling lie ins, easy to bump your head on. Could not see cushions for outdoor furniture although maybe there were somewhere....

Comfortable, cozy, kitchen small but well equipped, house is ideally situated for beach and cliff walks, lots of informative pamphlets about the area, close to shops and local amenities whilst still feeling secluded. We really enjoyed our stay, the only fault being our check out time was given as an hour earlier on the automated booking responses than that which was originally shown when the booking was made. We messaged through Booking.com to enquire about the sudden shortening of our stay, but received only system generated messages as a response, with the question of the check out time remaining unanswered.This meant that our homeward train travel, booked around the originally stated check out time, involved an extra hours wait in breezy Arbroath.

The garden opens out on to the beach and as we had great weather (for February!), we loved the views in the morning. There are lots of gorgeous walks and plenty of smoked fish! Cottage was always warm and cosy.

The location is the big seller. Right onto the shale beach, beside the harbour and a few minutes walk from the town centre and the Abbey. Plenty of eating places nearby.

The kitchen is very small, a party larger than 2 eating in would struggle. There is no teapot & no coffee pot or toaster, we didn't use the cooker so cannot comment on anything else. The staircase to the upstair rooms is steep with very narrow steps, is it legal? The TV is very small with no access to streaming channels, the lounge is comfortable for 2 people but more will struggle on wooden bench seating. The bathroom is a good size, but the shower head only allows a weak flow The downstair bed is very noisy and slopes inwards. The bedside lights are attractive but not suitable if one or other wants to sleep. The decor is tired and needs to be refreshed. Outside is a great space but needs a tidy up. We were there in January, the weather was dry but too cold to sit out so did not use the furniture. The old shed/garage(?) space could be a great asset if utilised properly but currently looks unwanted.

Very clean and warm right on the beach so very good

There were a few issues with the cleanliness of the property when we arrived. A couple of items were found in the rooms from previous guests indicating the place had not been as thoroughly cleaned as hoped. The rubbish had not been removed from the previous guests and the garden was a mess so we were unable to use this or put any of our waste in the outside bins which meant this had to be kept in the house.

Stunning location…direct access to the beach was amazing

Very small galley kitchen, was fine as just the two of us though
