Southerness is a small coastal village established in the late 18th century, which looks out over the Solway Firth, and forms part of the Colvend coast, one of the finest stretches of coastline on the 'Scottish Riviera'. Home to two pubs, a village store, a leisure centre with a pool and two miles of sandy beaches with sand dunes, rock pools and Gulf Stream warmed waters, and one of the oldest lighthouses in Scotland, built in 1748, it has everything you will need for a relaxing holiday. The nearby Criffel Hill rises to 569m, offers wonderful views of the farmland and the sands of the Nith Estuary below, and provides great walking opportunities. The Southerness Championship Golf Course adjoins the village and offers panoramic views of the Solway Firth, the Cumbrian Lake District to the south and the Galloway Hills to the west. A great location, with something to keep everybody occupied.

Previous visitors' comments about Beachcomber Cottage:
We had a wonderfully relaxing Christmas week at Beachcomber Cottage. The kids loved the outdoor play area. The games room was also amazing. We've never been to a property so well equipped with entertainment for the kids and adults alike! It was fabulous to walk along the beach most days n the week.
Mrs Whitaker, Bolton, December 2011
Beachcomber Cottage is absolutely perfect for a family holiday. There was lots for the kids to do at the house should the weather not be kind, but also a brilliant base from which to explore the area. The owner is warm and friendly and actively seeks feedback on how to make this wonderful cottage an even better place to stay. We can't recommend this house highly enough!
Mrs Howard, Reading, August 2011
The house was amazing but the garden was out of this world for children! The owner was extremely friendly. We had an excellent holiday!!
Mrs Burnett, Dalkeith, July 2011
Everything about the cottage was first class, there were three generations and each one of us had a great time. The owner made you feel very welcome, especially the children. There was so much to do at the cottage we never left it, even our dog had a great time. Big thank you!
