Discover Southerness

Sandwiched between lush green hills and panoramic views of the Solway Firth sits Southerness Holiday Park, near Dumfries. On the edge of Powillimount Beach, a day spent soaking in the Scottish coastline is only a few minutes away.

Historic Dumfries is a 30-minute drive. Meander down this quaint market town’s cobblestone streets and discover its connection with Scotland’s famous poet, Robert Burns.

A region known for its natural beauty, Galloway Forest Park is an hour’s drive away. Its amazing selection of trails offers something for everyone - from gentle loch-side strolls to hilly mountainous routes.

Settle into a relaxing beachside break at Southerness Holiday Park in Scotland. Peace and quiet has never been so easy to find!
