Although having once lived in Scotland we had never visited the south west of Scotland and when planning our tour Garlieston was a speculative choice. What a beautiful site it turned out to be. We were lucky enough to get a front sea view pitch. The site has a mixture of grass and hard standing pitches and is split into two sections but the sea view part is far the nicer. The village of Garlieston is a very pleasant with a small harbour, bowling green, a post office/shop and a tea room adjoined to a very nice pub where the food is good and plentiful. A bus stops just outside the pub taking you to the larger towns and villages in the area. The locals are very friendly. You just know you are going to get a warm site welcome when you see the beautiful flower display around the reception area as you arrive and this proved to be the case. The wardens were very friendly and informative and the site was well maintained and the facilities were modern and clean Our only regret was we were only there for two days we will be back but our stay will be longer
