About this property

Located in the lovely seaside village of Southerness, Wagtail Cottage is a charming single storey cottage with fabulous views over the beach. Offering high-quality accommodation for 4, Wagtail Cottage has views out over the sea. You enter Wagtail Cottage through the kitchen and all the accommodation is on the ground floor. The fully equipped kitchen leads into a cosy living/dining room with Freesat TV, with access to the conservatory that provides those gorgeous views out across the beach and the sea. It's the perfect tranquil spot for a breakfast cuppa or a sundowner after a busy day sightseeing or on the beach. There are 2 generous sized bedrooms, 1 double and 1 twin, both decorated in a lovely beachside style. The modern family bathroom has a walk-in shower WC and basin. Outside, there's ample off-road parking for 2 cars, and a lovely seaside garden with a large patio and garden furniture. There's another small seating area virtually on the beach, and although there is no direct access from the house, you can get to the beach in just 30 seconds.The beach at Southerness is a vast expanse of sand that stretches around Southerness Point. With stunning views over the Solway Firth, you could spend your entire holiday here exploring the dunes, climbing the lighthouse and eating fish and chips on the beach. If you're a nature lover, then this area of Dumfries and Galloway is a paradise with 3 nature reserves on the doorstep. If a round of golf on one of Scotland's many great courses is more your style, then there are 4 courses within a 10 mile radius, with the 2 links courses at Southerness virtually on the doorstep. Perfectly located for beach lovers, Wagtail Cottage is the perfect holiday destination for those who enjoy their holidays in the great outdoors.

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. Home to two pubs, a village store, a leisure centre with a pool and two miles of sandy beaches with sand dunes and rock pools. The nearby Criffel Hill rises to 569m, offers views of the farmland and the sands of the Nith Estuary below, and provides great walking opportunities. Nearby The Southerness Championship Golf Course can also be found. Cumbrian Lake District is to the south and the Galloway Hills to the west. A great location, with something to keep everybody occupied.

    We loved our stay and so did the dogs. Kitchen had everything we needed and more. Cottage was clean and welcoming when we arrived. Looking out from the conservatory at night was one of our favourite features about the cottage.

    Would if been good if there was information on the Nisa supermarket nearby. We only found it on our last day walking the dog. The mini market at road entrance had nothing on shelves being so close to end of season

    Lovely looking cottage that flatters to deceive. Soon after our arrival it was evident an infestation of silverfish had taken over the conservatory. This was reported to Sykes who contacted the owner . They failed to respond, lied about saying they had been and had spoken to us .Then as we sought to wash clothes to avoid taking these insects home with us , the washing machine failed. Again reported , left for 3 days without it and dishwasher ( same fuse) . No action by the owner. Sykes offered a minimum of comp and had to admit that owner had failed to respond to them . Avoid at all costs.
