The site offers 5 hardstanding pitches for caravans/motorhomes and 3 hardstanding pitches for tents, each with a 16-amp electric hook-up. Your pitch fee includes free hot showers, no extra charge for awnings or pets, and access to the beautiful surroundings. Wi-Fi is available for a small additional cost.

Set within 5 acres of woodland, the site features a charming ¾-acre fishing lake stocked with brown, rainbow, blue, and tiger trout. Fishing is strictly barbless hooks only, with tickets available from reception.

Garlieston Lodge is also home to a small breeding herd of rare Large Black pigs – Britain’s only all-black pig, tracing its lineage back to the Old English Hog of the 16th–17th centuries. You might also spot the resident Indian Runner ducks dashing comically around the site.

For refreshments, a short stroll takes you to The Harbour Inn, a friendly pub serving good beer and hearty meals, or The Hive Café, known for its excellent food and irresistible cakes.

If you’re looking for peace, nature, and a warm welcome, Garlieston Lodge is the perfect base for your Scottish escape.
