Peace and quiet in abundance

We stayed at this site for 12 nights in September/October, having read the review in the CC magazine last year. The site was busy and we were pitched in the walled garden. The pitches were very tight to access but fine once we were set up. The toilet block was small (2 toilets, wash cubicles and showers) and in need of refurbishment, but was adequate. We did not use the other toilet block on the harbour side. The site was well kept, neat and tidy and the wardens helpful and friendly. We were surprised that there was no recycling facility for glass either on site or locally. We did not want to put empty bottles into landfill, so took them home with us to recycle! The local shop in Garlieston is run by a rather grumpy gentleman, and only stocks the bare essentials. We shopped at Morrisons in Stranraer, although there is a Co-op in Wigtown which is nearer. The village and surrounding area is lovely with plenty of coastal walks in both directions, as well as easy access to Galloway House gardens which were very interesting. The village is like stepping back in time and although a road cuts the site in two, it was very quiet and peaceful. The Harbour Inn is 2 minutes walk away and served reasonably good pub grub.
