Description

The town of Fraserburgh is situated just 42 miles north of the city of Aberdeen on the north-facing coast of Buchan. Fraserburgh received its burgh status in 1546 and Sir Alexander Fraser (after whom this Aberdeenshire town takes its name) built the first stone pier in 1576.

The town retains the feel of a traditional old-fashioned seaside resort, with long golden beaches offering fantastic coastal walks as well as watersports such as surfing and windsurfing. Fraserburgh beach is close to the town centre, while nearby Waters of Philorth beach is within a Local Nature Reserve where the river meets the sea.

Property in Fraserburgh consists of a range of styles from flats to semi-detached and detached family homes meaning there is something here to suit almost everyone’s requirements.

History of Fraserburgh

Fraserburgh’s maritime history is explored at the Scottish Lighthouse Museum, where nearby 16th century Kinnaird Head Castle contains mainland Scotland’s first ever lighthouse (built in 1787).

The fishing industry in the town is strong and there are many fishing boats at Fraserburgh Harbour, although not on the scale it once had. Fraserburgh, however, remains home to the largest shellfish port in Europe, with an abundant supply of shellfish such as langoustines in local waters.

Things to do in Fraserburgh

There’s a great choice of recreational options in the town, with Fraserburgh Leisure Centre and Fraserburgh Community and Sports Centre both offering a range of sports, social and community activities. Fraserburgh Golf Club offers a traditional Scottish links and is famous for being one of the longest established golf clubs in the world, having been established in 1777.
