Your home away from home

Resting in the coastal village of Southerness, and county of Dumfries and Galloway, is this fabulous single-storey cottage, The Wigwam.

Accommodating five guests across three bedrooms, a group break will be perfect at The Wigwam, set within proximity to the shoreline, local amenities, and a wealth of attractions.

A sought-after parking space for up to two cars will welcome you as you enter the front of the cottage, set within the epitome of nature with an enclosed wrap-around lawn to relax on.

On entry, be charmed by the open-plan living space, boasting stunning views of the nearby shores of Southerness beach, whilst delivering culinary essentials, the perfect dining setting, and a homely sitting room with a TV and electric fire in tow.

After a day of exploration, retreat to the stylish ground-floor bedrooms, where you can relax and unwind ahead of another busy day in Scotland; choose between two double bedrooms and a single, all with easy access to the main bathroom.

If you instead prefer an evening out with your party, The Coast Bar and Restaurant is a short stroll away, accompanied by further dining out options and taverns, offering local produce and a snippet of the local community.

By day, visit Drumburn Viewpoint, Criffel Summit and Horse Isles Bay for stunning views of South West Scotland.

For an immersive activity, head over to Dumfries Museum and discover the history of the local land and people, visit Annan Museum, and embrace its cultural themes, or welcome the wildlife and picturesque setting of Threave Garden and Estate.

For an escape in nature, hike around the hills of Glencaple, walk across Rockcliffe Beach and take in its scenic shoreline, or visit Caerlaverock Castle and its mediaeval grounds.

For a staycation near the shores of Dumfries, choose The Wigwam as your group abode.

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 three pubs, two village stores, a leisure centre with a pool at Parkdean 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.
