It was good to just chill.

Very peaceful, good views for us. Love just watching the sea coming and going. Suited our kind of holiday. Nice walks and very friendly people.

Location was fine - as expected

Lovely holiday accommodation in a super location. Communication with the host before and during our stay was excellent and helpful. Great views over the harbour and beyond. The house is comfortable and well-equipped - we appreciated the provision of some basic (and not so basic) food/drink items so the lack of a nearby shop wasn't an issue. Our four-night stay gave us plenty of time to visit places of interest nearby and enjoy some walks around the village. The local pub serves good food and decent real ale (you need to book!) and The Hive cafe's breakfasts are also excellent. Highly recommended.

Nothing, just perfect.

The accommodation was first class and I would highly recommend the house. Lovely welcome pack and thoughtful touches. We loved our stay in Garlieston and will definitely return. Very friendly and helpful host. There are great walks and beaches on the doorstep. The weather was very good and we were swimming every day. Thank you.

I have nothing bad to say about the property.

It was very comfortable, very clean, lots of space and all things one needs for your stay including a coffee machine. Also the location was perfect near beach and costal walk.

Great location in a cosy clean house within easy reach of a great swimming beach. House was well equipped and spacious.

Creak on headboard on single bed, disturbing at night! Solved partially with a wedged cushion!

Location, cleanliness, facilities, welcome extras. Comfortable beds.

There isn't much in the village, just a cafe and a pub, and a shop at the garage. Our back door looked onto a Club campervan/caravan site. But it did not affect us at all. No noise at all.

There was almost no noise after about 8pm. The house is right by the sea and, waking up, in the wonderfully comfy beds, everything is so quiet apart from the birds. The house is very well-furnished and very warm. The huge settee and matching armchair in beautiful blue leather is gorgeous and comfortable. We enjoyed watching Netflix. We cooked some meals in the very well appointed kitchen. There are three toilets, one shower and a bath (with shower over it, I think) so the three of us never got in each other's ways! We could walk to the attractive village in a few minutes where there is a great traditional pub which goes like a fair. Live music, too. It was easy to get to Whithorn and Wigton, with excellent shops , pubs and cafes.

It would have been good to have a towel rail or hooks to hang wet towels in the en-suite. Also a bedroom chair would have been good.

Spacious ground floor. 2 bathrooms, nice views

The nearest mid-sized supermarket was in Wigton, which was about 7 miles away, so it's probably a good idea to stock up on your groceries before arrival. On our day of departure, we had to be out by 10am, which was too soon as we did not want to leave at all.

The owner gave us a lovely friendly welcome and presented us with a much-needed welcome pack, that included bread, butter, milk and not forgetting the two bottles of prosecco. The two-storey apartment was modern and immaculate. It had three toilets, one on the ground floor, and two upstairs. The double bedroom had an en-suite bathroom with a great shower. The twin bedroom had a great sea view towards the harbour and easy access to the other bathroom with a bath/shower. The double room had a fantastic balcony looking towards the Garlieston waterfront, giving us beautiful sunset views. It was a very short walk of about 100m to the picturesque harbour and a lovely pebble beach, which is a quiet hidden gem. There is plenty to explore in the immediate area, including Galloway House/gardens and another lovely nearby beach (about 5 mins drive by car). We had a fantastic holiday and we will definitely be back.

I can’t think of anything that could have been better

The welcome pack of bread, milk, Prosecco etc was such a nice touch, the house itself was just perfect, everything in the house was of the highest quality even down to the thickest, fluffiest towels.

It was amazing.

Some sort of water leak caused damp patches on lounge ceiling. No place to hang your towels after showering in en suite. Lack of blind on lounge window so when sun shone you had to close curtains to see tv and curtains draped over electric wall heater so a bit of a fire hazard. Small details but important to us.

Really comfy beds and quietness. A home from home. Great decor and neat and tidy layout. Friendly owners and a lovely touch with welcome pack.

There was nothing to dislike about the property.

Excellent , comfortable house. Exceptionally clean and beautifully furnished in a lovely location. The property has three bathrooms, plenty of space and is well equipped. The location is stunning, overlooking the harbour. Michelle is an excellent host who responds quickly to any questions, she is very friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend beachcomber, the best vacation rental I have ever stayed in.
