It is most unexpected, to be on the sea front yet feel sheltered by this cosy picturesque little site, with its beautiful flowery entrance, wonderful helpful wardens, and great cleanliness. The site is kept in tip top condition, and it not only overlooks the bay which has a stony beach, it also overlooks the picturesque village front of Garlieston itself. There is the Harbour Inn within short walking distance that serves lunches and evening meals, as well as friendly locals at the bar. We stayed 11 nights, and enjoyed every moment. Dumfries and Galloway is not a typical tourist destination, but it is worth taking time to explore it because it has some beautiful corners, so all in all we had a great time, and I have a feeling that we will be visiting this site every year now, because it's such a special little place.
