I visited Garlieston C&MC Site for 5 nights in April 2024. I really enjoy this site, it's sea side location, and the opportunities for exploring the fantastin surrounding area. For 2024, this takes my nights count living in the van to 12. The site itself is on the site of a former harbour, used for the shipping of timber from the surrounding forests. Dumfries and Galloway have massive plantations. The site is split in two, the harbourside and the walled garden. I prefer the shelter and quietness of the walled garden, and above, my van is almost bang in the centre of the picture above. The site is also located across a burn from a different, private site, Garlieston Lodge. Garlieston Village, famous for also being the place where nearby the Mulberry Harbours used during D Day were designed and tested. A really nice seafront, a good pub, and a great beach for walking the dogs. Looking across the water to the distant hills of Cumbria. Visited some nice places. This was Glasserto
