Thorter Row - The Ideal City Centre Base

Thorter Row is a bright and welcoming two-bedroom flat perfectly placed for a fun-filled stay in Dundee. Tucked nicely into City Quay, this first-floor apartment offers a peaceful stay just moments from the city’s waterfront buzz. Whether you're here for culture, cuisine, shopping or simply to relax, Thorter Row puts you in the perfect spot to enjoy it all.



You’ll be just a short walk from both the train and bus stations, making arrival and departure refreshingly straightforward. And with private parking included, you can leave the car and explore on foot at your own pace.



Inside, the flat is thoughtfully equipped to meet the needs of both short breaks and longer stays. The main bedroom features a king-sized bed, while the second offers a small double - ideal for a couple, friends or a family of three or four. The modern bathroom includes a shower over the bath.



The spacious lounge is the heart of the home, with a cosy sofa, a smart TV, and a dedicated desk area if you need to catch up on work or emails during your stay. It’s a lovely, relaxed space to unwind after a day out exploring.



City Quay has become one of Dundee’s most desirable areas for visitors, thanks to its waterside setting and proximity to the city centre. Once part of Dundee’s bustling docks, it has been beautifully regenerated into a vibrant neighbourhood with cafés, restaurants, and a relaxed marina atmosphere.



Just a few minutes from the flat is the RRS Discovery and V&A Dundee, two of the city’s headline attractions. And even closer still is the HMS Unicorn, one of the world’s oldest surviving warships and a proud piece of Dundee’s maritime history - moored practically on your doorstep.



You’ll also be close to local favourites like Porter's Bar & Restaurant, Quayside Bar & Grill (located in The Apex Hotel), and the independent shops and bars (The Wine Press) in the city centre, close by. Whether you’re sampling street food (Heather Street Food outside the V&A is a must, and Jannetta’s Gelateria), strolling the Waterfront Promenade, or heading out for live music, everything is within easy reach.



Thorter Row takes its name from a stretch of Dundee with a rich past. Historically, ‘Thorter Row’ was a narrow lane that once ran through the heart of the city, lined with small shops and merchants’ houses. While the original street has been reshaped by time and redevelopment, the name lives on - a nod to the area’s long-standing role in Dundee’s commercial and social life.



City Quay itself was once the beating heart of Dundee’s jute and shipping industries, and its Victorian warehouses and harbour walls still tell stories of that era. Staying here gives you a chance to soak up that atmosphere – and perhaps imagine the sights and sounds of the city’s past as you sip your morning coffee.



Thorter Row is perfect whether you're visiting for a family break, a couples getaway, or a working trip with some downtime. The combination of comfort, location, and a touch of local charm makes this flat a standout base for making the most of Dundee.



Book your stay and experience the very best of the city - from historic ships to riverside walks, vibrant culture to waterside calm – all from the comfort of Thorter Row.
