Visitor Reviews of Southerness

Emily, Ayrshire
Date of stay: 15th April 2025
We recently stayed in two of the Nith caravans, which were perfect for our family of three adults and five kids. The vans were clean, spacious and really comfortable. The site itself had plenty to keep everyone busy, especially with the family activities on offer. We spent some time at the pool, which was nice, though a bit chilly. One of our favourite bits was walking down to the lighthouse - even if the beach isnt very sandy, its a lovely stroll. We didnt explore much beyond, but theres loads to see nearby. Weve already booked again for next year, cant wait to come back!

The caravan was lovely overall, but the carpet was poorly fitted and the curtain rails felt flimsy.

We really enjoyed our break, relaxing in the caravan and exploring nearby. It was just what we needed to unwind from the daily grind. Lovely break!

We had a pretty nice weekend overall, staying in one of the Don caravans. It was surprisingly spacious and the washing machine was a lifesaver after a long walk on the beach. The location was lovely and peaceful, which we really appreciated. However, our experience at the on-site restaurant was quite disappointing. We waited nearly an hour for our drinks and chips, only to be told our order hadnt even been taken when we asked again. A staff member promised to check, but another ten minutes passed without any update. Eventually, we had to go inside ourselves to find out what was going on, only to be told our original waiter denied taking our order at all! Things got sorted, but it was frustrating and the bill was still for the full amount, despite all the hassle. Bit of a let down, honestly.

The sofa was quite stained and the carpet near it was lifting, but overall, the caravan was in decent condition, so not too bad!

We really enjoyed our stay! The site has loads of kids activities and the beach and caves are just a short drive away. Climbing Criffel was a great adventure too.

Date of stay: 28th August 2024
Overall, we had a decent stay. The caravan was clean, but there were a few little issues like the broken curtain pole in the living area and the tatty sweeping brush. The TVs are pretty basic, but having two toilets was a real plus for us. The three bedrooms suited our family perfectly, especially with two teenagers. Not perfect, but wed come back!

Emma, Glasgow
Date of stay: 18th February 2024
We hadnt been back in over two decades, but our trip from the 16th to the 20th September was just lovely! The staff were genuinely friendly and made us feel really welcomed. The only thing wed suggest is adding an extra heater in the caravan - those chilly nights couldve used a bit more warmth. Otherwise, it was a perfect, relaxing break for me and my husb and. Would definitely return!

Date of stay: 17th January 2024
We had an absolutely lovely week here! The park was stunning and really made our trip special. The staff were so friendly and helpful, which we really appreciated. The only funny moment was when I accidentally walked into a door that said pull-awkward but hilarious! Definitely recommend.
