Southerness is a small coastal village in Dumfries and Galloway. Southerness is located approximately south of the A710 between Caulkerbush and Kirkbean. The town today is mainly a tourist village and has for many years had a large number of static caravans, some private and many rented to holiday makers. The local bus services to and from Dalbeattie and Dumfries are more frequent during the summer season. One of the main landmarks is its lighthouse which was built in 1749 and is one of the oldest lighthouses in Scotland. The lighthouse stands approximately 56 feet (17 m) tall and was decommissioned in the 1930s. One of the two golf courses was redesigned in 1947 by course manager Mackenzie Ross. The village has to the north a magnificent backdrop of the "marilyn" Criffel, and to the south the sandy bay of Gillfoot. There are good views on a clear day across the Solway Firth to the Lakeland fells. ==Tourist facilities== * 18-hole golf course * JJS fish and chip shop * Paul Jones Hotel * Mermaid Bar * The Venue * The Minimarket * Evening entertainment "during the high season" * Two caravan parks 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Southerness」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
