So relaxing

We have just returned from Garlieston and what a fantastic site it is. The site had only just opened for the season when we arrived and it was immaculate, full marks to the wardens, who were both very welcoming and helpful. We pitched right on the harbourside and had a great view. We can thoroughly recommend the Harbour Inn, both for their beer a food. The pub is family run and all the staff take their time out to make you feel welcome.

lovely site

Just returned from a another great holiday on this site. Wardens are very pleasant and cant do enough to help you. A great walk to Rigg Bay can be bit muddy in places but overall a beautiful walk. Visited village tea room and pub, food excellent and both places dog friendly. Will be returning soon.

I love this place

We stayed on this site for a week in the summer of 2015. It is a little gem the site cleanliness and upkeep is everything we have come to expect on the Caravan Club sites, but we so enjoyed this area the beautiful walks and wildlife (I took a photo of a curlew on morning). We took the bus into Newton Stewart for coffee and retail therapy and there is a pub and café just across from the site entrance that we used most days (both dog friendly). Definitely worth a return visit.

Wonderful site

Lovely site with pleasant views, and the walled area quiet and secluded. Staff are excellent. Local pub with restaurant/café very good with friendly staff and dog friendly within short walk from site.

PEACE PERFECT PEACE

What a wonderful site. We have just enjoyed the most rewarding stay here in perfect weather, blue skies, strong sun and so forth. This is a site for those seeking real peace. The views are great, the site is immaculate with a wonderful display of flowers and the staff are truly welcoming and always willing to do all that they can for you. To be pitched right on the sea wall is really great. The village is small but welcoming with a good pub only yards from the site, and a bus stop there too for those that can use them. Plenty to do out and about, although the surface of the roads leaves much to be desired. We will be back.

Scotland at last

This was our first night of our tour of Scotland, we stayed for two nights on pitch 5 right beside the sea wall, the previous reviews are spot on, this is a great place to spend a few days or longer, the wardens were very nice and the site is indeed a credit to them, not much in the local area for families though, but that didn't bother us, but we will be back in the spring.

Lovely site!

We have just been to stay on this site last weekend for the first time and it was gorgeous!! Very small, very peaceful. Local pub (Harbour Inn) was cosy, logs burning on an open fire, delicious meals, very friendly locals, and the pub is dog friendly. We will definitely be back!!

Fantastic little site

Lovely quiet location, we visited for a few nights enroute from Gretna on our honeymoon through southern Scotland. The site is a real hidden gem and the pitches are well kept and pristine.  We stayed on pitch 31 which was hard standing with a nice view of the sea and hills in the distance.  We woke the next morning to find a hand written board at the edge of our pitch congratulating us on our wedding, this was a really nice personal touch. There are several nice walks close by, we tried the one turning left from the site and follows the coastal footpath and eventually came to Galloway house estate which has nice gardens and then back to the village or Garlieston.  The second day we turned right and followed the road around the bay and then onto the headland opposite which was ok. We took time out to walk across the beach, well worth a stroll. The locals that we met were also very friendly. The wardens Anne and Martin were really fantastic and run a really nice clean site, they were both very helpful and advised us to try the local Harbour Inn, and we were not disappointed the food was great and reasonable value for money, it's advisable to book a table as its very popular.  If your looking for a lovely quiet site then this is place to consider, we will definitely recommend and will revisit again.

Good location, a little gem

Stayed at this site for three nights returning on 18th October 2015. Our first visit as we usually go higher up the West Coast but we were not disappointed. Location great with only a short drive to Galloway Forest Park which has great walks which we and our dog enjoyed as well as the walks along the beach and through the woodland.The wardens were friendly and site facilities as always very good. The Harbour Inn, a short walk from the site is welcoming with a log fire and good food. Will be returning to this little gem in 2016.

Lovely Site

A well kept and clean site, staff very helpful and accomodating, the local pub is small, but does lovely meals. If you are looking for a quiet break, Garlieston is the place to go to.
