    The cottage was spotless, Sandy and Anne were lovely and very helpful. The location is perfect for the beach, pubs and chippy- they’re just a couple of minutes walk away. The garden is huge the kids and dogs loved it. We explored the local area and had a great week. Will definitely be coming back.

There is everything you could need to cook a nice meal, great TV and 2 lovely conservatories for some quiet time. Pubs and beach are within an easy walk. Owner is very helpful and friendly.

    Also a welcome visit at the end of the week to ensure that I was okay. The house was clean, tidy and well layed out with all facilities needed for a weeks stay. Even the starter bag of logs was a thoughtful touch. Dog absolutely loved the big garden, not often I can let her off lead but garden was doggy secure, though we did get the local bunny visiting each day. Within easy driving distance to some wonderful countryside and though the weather on the final few days restricted travelling, the nearby beaches made amends. I can definitely see myself returning time and time again. A definite home from home. Thank you.

  • "Kouloura is an absolutely wonderful cottage in a fantastic place."

    It is clean, comfortable and spacious. Sandy, the owner, is incredibly welcoming and is generous with his time and advice, giving us lots of information and suggestions about places to go and eat, which were a great help and ensured we got the most out of the location and our holiday. Kouloura is a fantastic base for everything the local area has to offer; the beaches (all so different), woods and hills provide fantastic days out for all the family. The pubs, arcade, shop and fish and chip shop so close by were brilliant and great on an evening. Even with these so close by, Kouloura has its own, enclosed large garden and is incredibly peaceful, just a couple of minutes walk from the beach. We had an amazing time time at Kouloura and didn’t want to leave. Our 3 boys have already asked if we can return.

  • "Excellent holiday."

    Owner extremely helpful and the house and area to be recommended. Definitely one of the better places in which to stay. Only downside was our springer spaniel insisted on jumping over fence to chase rabbits and we had to keep her on extending lead in the garden. However this was no reflection on the owner as the height of the fence would have been more than adequate to restrain other dogs (second dog didn't attempt it). Our escapee tried accessing other gardens when out, just a determined diva!! Strong lead essential.

  • "Had a wonderful stay at Kouloura!"

    Going to start with the negatives to get them out of the way! The property is advertised as having a sea view, now whilst this is technically correct as you can just about see the sea from the big conservatory it’s not my idea of having a sea view. I think the advertising of the property needs tweaking a little with that. The property is also quite overlooked by another couple of properties & a few caravan’s from the adjoining caravan park. Now for the positives, the absolute gem for this property is the garden! It’s huge, secure & wrap’s around the entire property. We had 2 Labrador’s with us who have had the BEST time! Possibly worth noting if you have dog’s with you that due to the time of year there were lot’s of daffodils in the garden which are highly toxic to dog’s so just something to keep an eye on. The property was a good size, it was comfortable & had everything we needed. It was clean with absolutely spotless bedding & all pillow’s had pillow protectors on which was good to see. Great to have a washing machine which if you’ve got kid’s, dog’s or both with you is an added bonus! The owner of the property was very friendly & obliging, he doesn’t live far away so I suspect if there were any issues during your stay they would be quickly rectified. It was great to be so near to the beach, just go out of the little gate from the garden, turn right, walk past another 4 properties or so, turn right again & you’re there! Less than a 5 minute walk! We have all enjoyed our week’s stay at Kouloura & would definitely stay again!

    The garden wraps the whole way around the property and as we arrived I spotted rabbits in the garden and was worried my dogs would escape given their rabbit frenzy ways! However the garden was so secure that they never escaped and had a wonderful time- rabbits all safe too. Cottage has everything you need and is cozy- we had wonderful weather but had to light the fire one night just to have a go- it was great, love an open fire. Beach 2 min walk away and great places to visit. Pub in Southerness friendly and decent food. Owner met us and pointed out features in cottage and suggested places to visit which was a lovely touch. We will definitely return one day.

    It was great being so close to the beach. The dogs loved the garden and we all loved the fire. It was nice when we put the heating on and used the large conservatory, which was a pleasant space for the daytime. The property is has one step down from the house into each of the conservatories, and there are steps out from the front door into the garden (just in case you have little people or little dogs like we did). We really liked the Smart TV so we were able to watch some of our favourites on Netflix and Prime etc. Having broadband was great too for gaming and working.

  • "The listing didn't give an accurate description of the place."

    The bathroom was NOT a family bathroom. Instead, it was quite small. The water pressure was horrendous in the shower as well. The 'adult bunk beds' were not adult in any way shape or form. They were quite small and cramped. The linens were still set up for winter, instead of switched over for summer. The TV room couldn't fit more than 4 adults, as there were only 2 two-seater sofas which were VERY uncomfortable. The photos definitely make the place look bigger than it actually is. The garden was nice, but not mowed. The conservatories were nice, however they became very warm very fast. There were no shades to help block the sun. Also,TWICE random strangers came to the door looking for someone that wasn't there. The area is cute, but not meant for a friends holiday. The wifi connection was awful and constantly dropped. The owner seemed nice, and gave us our space, which was good. But, other than that, it wasn't so great.

    As owners, we take pride in our property and its cleanliness, especially during today's Covid situation. In eleven years of letting our property it has never been left in the appaling state in which it was found after your stay. You showed a complete lack of consideration and respect for the lovely clean house left for you, nor for us as owners or the guests who stayed after you. We feel your review is just a cover for this. We have had many excellent guests who compliment our lovely cottage and return year after year. The description and pictures are accurate for our property. The bathroom is of a reasonable size with a full sized bath and shower and a sink. The shower has good water pressure. The 2 sofas in the living room are 3 seater Marks and Spencer sofas. There are, in addition and for guests comfort, 2 x two seater sofas and two comfortable chairs available in the large and small conservatories. The linen is always clean and fresh. The grass is mowed on a regular basis and was not overgrown during your stay. This should have made it easier to clean up your dog's mess, which was also left all over the garden. Your group were lucky and had a nice week of weather when the sun shone. It is unfortunate you did not go out to discover the beautiful local area with many fine beaches, forests, golf and other outdoor activities. We really do not understand why you chose to come to the area. The owners. Property Owner

About the location

SOUTHERNESS

Castle Douglas 19 miles; Dalbeattie 13 miles; Dumfries 16 miles.

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.

Note: this property does not accept Hen/Stag parties or similar.
