Around Arbroath.
Arbroath is a red sandstone harbour town on the Angus coast, famous for its smokies and for the abbey tied to the Declaration of Arbroath. Visitors come for the harbour, the cliff walks and the abbey, while most residents work locally or commute to Dundee. Smokehouses, cafés and guest houses need to be easy to find and clear on opening hours for day-trippers, and trades do better naming Carnoustie and the surrounding villages because the local market spreads along the coast.
Closest to Arbroath within Angus: Montrose (11 miles) and Forfar (13 miles). Further out, Dundee (17 miles), St Andrews (17 miles) and Cupar (23 miles) are within commuting distance. It is worth saying plainly which of these you travel to, so people further out know whether to call.
Inside Arbroath, the site can name areas such as Carnoustie, Friockheim, Auchmithie, Colliston, Letham Grange and Hayshead.
Arbroath (postcode area DD) sits about 405 miles north of Exeter.
