Pretty Harbour Gem

Return visit to this site, located in a small town overlooking Wigton Bay. The site is divided into two halves, one walled garden area and the other the harbour view. Pitches along the harbour wall give an amazing vista over the Bay but can get very crowded as the grass between hard-standings are also allocated as pitches during high season. We were on pitch 6 which was lovely and spacious. The facilities are a little dated - I could not get one of the showers to operate, which left only 1 working cubicle. The hairdryer is very low power too but adequate if you are patient. The motorhome service point is in the walled garden area only, which can be a little tight if you have a large outfit. There is a bus stop right outside of the site but the timetable is a little erratic - you can get to places but there can be long waits for the return journeys. The town itself is pleasant to walk around, The Harbour Inn is always worth a visit, and the locals play crown green bowls even in wet weather. Delicious mobile fish and chip van arrived on Friday evening (4pm - 7pm) and very good prices. The harbour/bay is dog friendly all year round when the tide is out. There is a lot of history attached to Garlieston, so worth wandering around, reading the information and visiting the 'museum' in the community hall. Will definitely be back for a third visit.
