Beautiful art exhibition on one floor. Loads of history about Broughty Ferry. Helpful staff and nice gift shop (picked up some children's activity items). Looks plain from the outside, however is worth a visit.

On a short break to Dundee. Decided to visit , so popped on a Xplore Dundee bus 5a from centre of town . Bus stopped around 20 mins walk away , so not two far . Quit windy the day we went , but didn’t affect the tour . Observation deck wasn’t open , but I guess that could have been down to the weather . Very interesting and informative of local past times etc . On a summer day i would imagine it would be stunning area .

Fascinating history going back to the 1400's. On a rocky outcrop at the mouth of the Tay so was an important fortress in its day. Acquired by the War Office in 1855 who intended to use it as a defence against possible attack from the Russians. Due to the threat from possible French invasion it was re-fortified in 1860 and then further altered due to the German threat in later years. Now a museum with many interesting artefacts on display manned by friendly, helpful staff. Worth climbing the spiral staircase in the tower for the fantastic views across the Tay.

Smashing place, steeped in history, with spectacular views up, down and across the River Tay. Friendly staff, an emphasis on local history, plus an art gallery and a nice bit for kids, makes this quite the place to spend a few hours. That's before we get to the superb on the beach location. and the fact it's a short stroll from 'Ferry central.' What's more it's free.

Good wee visit to see some history and it will amaze you what they have in what looks like a small building. It’s a lovely view from the viewing window at the top. The stairs are quite steep inside but ok

The member of Staff who talked to us was fantastic! He was so knowledgeable, engaging and all round brilliant! I couldn’t recommend this castle and museum highly enough. If you go I hope you meet him and you won’t be disappointed. It’s free too!

A castle turned museum right on the Broughtyferry beach. It is a good activity for those looking to know about the city's history and the associated arts. Be prepared to climb up some steep stairs as the museum is situated over 3 floors which are approachable only via stairs.

Went to view the castle and had the bonus dolphin or ten. The castle was a private home that fell to rack and ruin. It was restored for military use. The tower has 4 floors of exhibits including the history of Broughty Ferry. It is free to enter and can be covered in one hour. There is free car parking nearby and a toilet inside the castle.
