Arbroath Abbey is located close to the centre of the town of Arbroath. At first sight its urban setting seems odd, it's too easy to forget that when it was built, over 800 years ago, few of the buildings you see today in this part of Arbroath would have existed. Site of the signing of the Declaration of Independence 1320.

Arbroath Harbour Visitor Centre opens its doors

A new lease of life beckons for Arbroath's historic and picturesque harbour with the official opening of its new visitor centre. The harbour is set to thrive again with the eye-catching new development on the site of the former Gerrard's boatyard. The regenerated harbour features a multi-media visitor information and orientation centre to be managed by national tourism agency VisitScotland, a seafood restaurant, coffee shop, public toilets and two shops.

Lunan Bay has become more accessible in recent years with the building of a car park behind the dunes, but there's still plenty of beach to go round. It is popular with surfers and horse riders, and fishing still takes place here, with nets strung from poles on the beach to trap fish in the falling tide. 

Family fun...and that's a promise whatever the weather! Here at Pleasureland you are under cover and its FREE ENTRY!
