Now known as The Eastern Residences, the development blends the character of the original sandstone building with modern living. Large windows fill the rooms with natural light, while the stylish interior creates a relaxed coastal atmosphere.
With private parking, attractive shared gardens and a location just minutes from the beach and town centre, Whinny Brae provides a comfortable base for exploring this popular seaside area.
Living Space and Bedrooms

On the ground floor you will find a large open plan living space designed for relaxing and spending time together. Comfortable sofas provide a welcoming place to unwind, while the dining table seats six for shared meals.
At the top of the stairs there is also a small desk area, useful if you need to catch up on emails or write a few postcards during your stay.
