Broughty Ferry Gains Further Recognition in Sunday Times Best Places to Live in Britian

The Sunday Times Best Places to Live in Britain 2015 Logo
Broughty Ferry has today been rated 16th best place to live in Great Britain and second only in Scotland to Old Aberdeen.

Earlier today the Sunday Times published their list of 50 best places to live in Britain 2015. 

In the second part of their guide, they explain that the "focus is on the best of urban Britain, from prime neighbourhoods in our biggest metropolises to smaller cities that shine as a whole."

In making their award, this is what the judges wrote about Broughty Ferry:
16 Dundee, Brought Ferry
"Nestling beneath a 16th century Castle and away from the smog and noise of central Dundee, Broughty Ferry is a picture perfect former fishing village that's netting ever more interest. ..... "

This is the second time in six months that The Ferry has been nominated for a prestigious award. In the Autumn 2014, it came close to winning the UK Academy of Urbanism Best Neighbourhood Award and made the last three.


Very well done to all Ferry Folk, our businesses and public services, our community and voluntary organisations that together with our outstanding natural environment make Broughty Ferry such a great place to live.
