Lovely little site

We stayed here for 3 nights in September 2015 on a tour around southern Scotland. First time here and what a great choice. We'd booked a standard pitch without awning so it meant we got one of the pitches on the harbour wall. Fab view of the little town and the tide rushing in and out. The facilities were spotless, plenty of hot water in the showers and the wardens were friendly and helpful. The pub is a short walk and is also dog friendly serving scrummy food. We will definitely be returning here.

wonderful place for relaxation

Just had a week at Garlieston Caravan Site. Wonderful place to relax. Warm welcome from the wardens. Great to sit and watch the wading birds in the bay, oyster catchers and curlews. Logan Botanic Gardens was an excellent place to visit, with magnolias and camellias in flower. We also saw red kites in the Galloway forest park. Will be returning to this wonderful area.

Fabulous

This was our first outing ever in a motorhome. This site was perfect, Ann & Martin (wardens) were very helpful and very welcoming. We wanted somewhere to unwind with a peaceful atmosphere, Garlieston fitted the bill to a tee. We didn't know what to expect as motor homing was a completely new concept to us, the site was clean and well looked after, nothing was too much trouble if we were unsure. Cycling and walking in abundance. The pub is just a stones throw from the site, very friendly with good food. Definitely recommend this site, we will certainly be back. Thank you for a wonderful introduction to the world of motor homing and the Caravan Club.

Gem of a site

Just returned from spending a long weekend over Easter. Very helpful and friendly wardens. The site was immaculate and all facilities. Great venue for families who want to get away from it all. We explored the beach, great for bikes as all the nearby roads are very quiet. Also good for using the site as a base. We went to Cream o'Galloway and enjoyed the treetop nets, climbing tower and the delicious ice-cream. We went to the swimming pool at Newton Stewart on a rainy Saturday and had a drive up the coast to Ballantrae where we were rewarded with seeing gannets and shags diving for fish. Would recommend this site and will definitely come back.

Great in Garlieston

Spent a week here over Easter.  Nice quiet site away from everything.  Good facilities and friendly locals.  An excellent pub nearby, The Harbour Inn, serving excellent meals including a Sunday carvery and real ale.  We don't have a dog but the walks down by the harbour and beyond would suit the doggy set.  We will be returning.

Who built that Bridge

Have regarded Garlieston as one of our favourite sites since 2007 We call at least 4-6 times a year. A replacement Bridge has been fitted, if you have a caravan you will 'bottom' your caravan, if you have a larger motorhome, the same will happen. Not good, please sort this out soon. A bit of planning would have averted this !! The site will still remain one of out favourites. The wardens need to be commended for the floral display, each year, why hasn't this site won this catagory

A Great Start to Our Caravanning Year

Spent Easter at this peaceful site, our first outing of the year. We chose a pitch in the walled garden which was a wise choice given the high winds we experienced. Our new air awning was in no danger at all. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed the easy access to the dog friendly beach and the other lovely walks accessible from the site. We enjoyed two delicious meals at the Harbour Inn where the staff were very friendly and welcoming and the food superb. We would definitely recommend this site for a peaceful and relaxing getaway.

Lovely Peaceful Site

We have just returned from this lovely site having spent Easter weekend there. The wardens could not have been more helpful and obliging. An exceptionally peaceful site with beautiful views and some great beach walks.  Some local birdlife to be seen from the caravan included curlews and oystercatchers. The toilet/shower blocks were immaculate at all times and the site was very, very tidy. We will absolutely stay there again.

First time out

This was our first time out with a motorhome and the first site we have used. If this is the standard , then we will be very happy. Excellent information from the friendly wardens, who provided an immaculate site. Great location for the local pub , who supplied great food. The local bus service was handy to get you back to the site , once the days walk was over. Would definitely recommend it.
