What he didn't say in the video is Broughty Ferry is part of Dundee, one of its suburbs, only 4 miles from the city centre of Dundee along the River Tay.
You said you would stay in Dundee, so i take it you have visited. Broughty Ferry is practically part of it although it is on the outskirts. If you had kept heading northwards you would have came across it followed by Balmossie, Carnoustie and Arbroath
Dennistoun one of the wealthiest bits of the East end and is a 10 min walk from a lot of things like Celtic Park,Strathclyde Uni,Merchant City and only a 45 min drive from Edinburgh! Its apartments are gigantic!
If you ever plan a visit to Inverness let me know. You would be more than welcome at ours to save you hotel costs. We live 5 miles south of the city. We were a guest house but haven’t reopened since covid. Let me know if you want details.
I'm a Glaswegian, and I love Glasgow but Perth and Kinross is just beautiful, Dunkeld has so much history. It's Isle of Eigg is pronounced Egg. Probably don't be talking about buying a cottage anywhere in Scotland to stay for a few weeks, it's because of the English buying properties as holiday accommodation that the locals can't afford to buy property in their own villages, just saying as a bit of advice to you, please ignore at will. x
Na h-Eileanan Siar is Scots Gaelic for the outer Hebridean Isles of Harris and Lewis and Barra and other littler ones dotted around. Luskentyre beach looks like the Bahamas however very much not as warm.
I live in the Outer Hebrides, on Isle of Harris. Originally from Edinburgh, moved up many years ago, became a weaver of the famous cloth. The place is stunning, white sandy beaches, aqua green seas & wonderful mountains. It's not for everyone, winters here can be harsh. The pretty much constant wind can wear people down when they 1st move here!
Please ignore most of the pronunciations in this video, the voice sounded AI and got lots of the names wrong! If I'd managed to make money, my dream was to buy a flat in Glasgow's west end, and buy a cottage on Loch Lomond or in the Trossachs so I could enjoy the best of both worlds. Alas, I'm in my mid 30s and still live in a council flat, though at least I already live at Loch Lomond so things could be worse! If I could move anywhere in Scotland nowadays I would choose Oban, It's fairly remote and surrounded by stunning scenery, but it has all the amenities you'd need and is well connected by bus, train and ferry.I don't disagree that most of the picks on this list are nice places to stay... however my own top 10 would be very different from this video. Eigg is a real place and it's pronounced Egg! Eigg is near other islands called Rum and Muck. Along with Canna they're known as the Small Isles. I've never visited any of them but I have sailed past them on my way to the Outer Hebrides.
Wow!! I just switched on to watch this vid as havecwatched you before and what do you say first thing? My home city of Dundee is your favourite place to live in Scotland although I'm really in Broughty Ferry now which is just outside the city but was incorporated. I bet you visited and likely passed my home. Thank you kindly big man ❤
Do some research in to Up Helly Aa. It’s a fire festival in the Shetland isles, that happens on the last Tuesday of every January. People come from all over the world to capture the event. You can also experience the 12 hour boat journey (longest ferry journey in the UK) as well.
I'm glad I have no hair, as some of these pronunciations would make me rip it out. Not you Eddy, but the muppet presenting. Dennistoon has me still raging. He got so many of these horribly wrong. I hate North Berwick. Only because on a visit to the RSPB reserve, I bought a pair of binoculars. They are awesome, but £1200 was a wee bit more than I meant to spend! Yer Scottish accent is coming along fine. It's smashin'. Gerrit up ye! Cheers Eddy. Good lad
@@alfiekelly5914 I do some work in content creation, and the voice sounds familiar. Which makes me think it's likely AI.

Orkney is my favourite place to visit. There is so much to see, it has a wealth of Neolithic sites including the Ring of Brodgar and Skara Brae. It has Viking sites. World War II sites. Beautiful nature - including puffins. Plus there is a cracking snack van in the carpark opposite Tesco. Don’t think I could live there full time though. Too remote and the winter is too long.
Spent half my summer holidays in Broughty Ferry as a kid, my gran lived in Dundee and we'd walk to Broughty Ferry almost every day to go to the beach, and it had a really good ice-cream shop.
These narrators really ought to do their homework on how to pronounce place names before presenting to the public! For example (amongst others), “Bearsden”… ridiculous.
Thats where i live portobello edinburgh very expensive always packed with being a beach resort place ever it good for day out if your even this way you should try st andrews chip shop best fish ever
I grew up in Bonnybridge (not the prettiest but the aliens seem to like it! Yeah definitely a thing.) You recently went to the Falkirk Wheel which is just a couple of miles from there. I currently live just outside of Dumfries in a place with beautiful scenery and woodland. I've moved away a couple of times over the last decade but I usually last 6 months before the homesickness gets too much and I come back. I've only recently discovered your channel through your reactions to two of my all-time favourite comedies (Gimme, Gimme, Gimme and Still Game) and I love your positivity and good humour.
Eddie commented before on a previous video you had and you said thanks for the tip , should get the train or 124 or x 5 bus from Edinburgh to north Berwick for the day if ever up 👊 great day out for all , friendly place as well everyone says hey on street as well so you will get a good banter and chat
The best job in the world is in Orkney. The Logainair pilots who fly the Westray to Papa Westray route. Shortest commercial flight in the world. About a minute or 2. It's on my bucket list
My mate Donny did live on the Isle of Eigg. He has to get the ferry to visit his family every year. He lives in Edinburgh now. Melrose is just up the road from me. My rent is £280 a month. It is a one bedroom though. So beautiful however. ❤ my own front and back garden. Perfect for me.
@Eddy Cheese , My stepdad is from The Isle of Eigg (pronounced egg) and he lives here in Glasgow just a 5 minute walk from me . But he is on his way to Eigg next week for a wee break with my mum . About half of the population of the island are his relatives . Dennistoun in Glasgow is less than 2 miles from Celtic Park . I think this top 10 is made up of places with really high property prices which doesn't really paint a picture if they are the best places to live . I'd rather see a top 10 showing places with the least crime figures & great community spirit .
Eddy I bet there must be someone who has done a video of " The Ten Cheapest places in Scotland" I'll bet some of them will only be 40/50 minutes away from some of the places mentioned here :)
Eddy , wouldn’t take the video you were watching too serious as you probably know more about Scotland than the person narrating it . Although you need to head a bit further North out of the Cental Belt places like Oban, Aberdeen,Wick, Ullapool , etc. Some off these places are quiet and scenic perhaps not enough happening for your videos but worth seeing. I think you’re doing it right a bit at a time as travelling is really expensive these days, especially accommodation.
Eddie please visit Strathclyde park in Motherwell between Edinburgh and Glasgow, truly paradise mate you will love it mate, make sure its a sunny day to get the best experience, love the vids!
Hey, their Gaelic's even worse than Eddy's English! (He's not got to island games at the weekend by the way - but highland ones!) You'll be staying at a Otel, are you, Eddy?!! Na h-Eileanan Siar sounds a bit more like Nah-ee-lan share. Think of the River Siur (Shoo-er) in Ireland, or even the girl's name, Sian, in Wales... Si- always sounds like the English Sh- sound! Broughty Ferry is the upmarket seaside suburb of Dundee, Eddie... In the World? Aye well, when your world stops at the Waterloo Bar just past Glasgow Central Station one way and Robroyston in the other - Dennistoun probably does resemble Las Vegas...!! Melrose is nice - at the foot of the Eildon Hills - but why they show you the mental health unit at the back of the hospital is anyone's guess, LOL!!
Best place in Scotland, Fife. Dundee's a shithole. Broughty Ferry is near Dundee. The Isle of Eigg is pronounced 'Egg'. No joke. It's next to the Isle of Rum.
It's pronounced Dennist'n not Dennistoon jeez. 🙄. Shaw...lands? Shaw... lands!!? It's Shawlands .... all one word not two separate words. Oh dear heavens could that man butcher our language and names more than he has?! And I've lived in both of them. Miss my wee flat in Denniston 😥.
Please don't listen to the pronunciation of place names in the video you are watching. It's absolutely butchered half the place names. The way it said na h-Eileanan Siar, Bearsden, Shawlands, Isle of Eigg, & Dennistoun was really grinding my gears! On a positive note, your own attempt at the Scottish accent was pretty good I thought
No the 'voice' pronounced Na h-Eileanan Siar wrongly. Google the correct pronunciation. Bearsden is pronounced BearsDEN (emphasis on the second half). Dennistoun, emphasis on the first half of the word. Never let AI voices loose on Scottish names.
Sorry Eddy I couldn't take this video seriously after the narrator guy made an absoulte arse of pronouncing Na h-Eileanan Siar 🙈 embarrassing why did he not just say the Western Isles in the first place

Broughty Ferry is basically Dundee’s beach.
I defo think Dunkeld and a walk up to the hermitage to see the waterfall would be right up your street
Top Quality - Nice up there 👍
I live here. Parking is a nightmare....

And Broughty Ferry, we live in Arbroath and often head to the Ferry for drinks and eats.
