Garlieston is just beautiful and has a lot of history to it, the Harbour Inn is the hub of the village for many people! The accommodation was excellent, very clean, tidy and everything in place perfectly. In our experience all the staff work hard and went above and beyond to make you feel welcome and were extremely attentive and helpful. The food is amazing, we had both evening meals and breakfast and neither disappointed us, definitely worth every penny. Pets are welcome which is great. I cannot wait until we get back to this little piece of heaven! Thank you for a wonderful stay. It may be a little bit out of the way for some but that appealed to us even more.

Nothing

Loved the bar with big roaring fire. Staff were very friendly. Bedroom very good with a great view, comfortable bed. Dinner was great as was the breakfast.

What I didn't like was wakening up in the morning without any central heating (did have small heater) or hot water. The room was freezing as was the bathroom. Contacted staff who phoned owner. Had to get dressed without showering and get out of room to get a heat. These things happen, could of accepted it okay if the owner would have spoken to us, didn't get call or visit us before we left. Doesn't seem to care for his/her customers. We were going to book for next month because we really liked the hotel but not now. The owner is lucky they have fantastic staff.

We really enjoyed the Harbour Inn. The location was superb, the staff friendly and helpuful and the food excellent. The room had great views on two sides and the beds were comfy. The bathroom looked a little jaded but the rest of the hotel had been refurbished and looked great. The pub was lovely with a great vibe. We also thoroughly enjoyed the evening meal in the restaurant. Overall a lovely hotel with lots of charchter and in a wonderful location.

What a lovely place! The Staff were so friendly and welcoming! We had a meal in the restaurant which was really tasty followed by drinks in the bar. We got chatting to the locals and even sat with the owner for a few hours, Harry thank you so much for a wonderful night! Our room was really comfortable, plenty of space and doggy friendly which is super helpful! Our room overlooked the harbour and was a lovely view to wake up to. Full Scottish breakfast in the morning set us up for the day. We look forward to coming back!

One of our party is vegan and another lactose intolerant. I had contacted the Harbour Inn beforehand to ask for an alternative milk. Not only did they provide this, when we came down to breakfast the chef had written out a separate list for each of them, showing what was suitable (she even came in to apologise because she had left the vegan sausages off the dairy free list!). Little touches like that mean a lot. My breakfast was excellent as well.

The breakfast haggis. We had four meals at the Inn, all of them excellent. The haggis at breakfast was cooked in a way I found rather strange but it was still very tasty, so I can't really say I didn't like it.

It’s very quaint, very friendly, the room was comfortable with a wonderful view over the bay, the pub was a proper old fashioned village pub, nice atmosphere, open fire and local ales. The staff couldn’t do enough for us, even made us a packed lunch for our journey home as we left very early. Very dog friendly also.

Breakfast starts at 09:00 which was. Bit late for us, but if you let them know in advance, they will accommodate you earlier.

The staff, food and accommodation were great. Our only adverse comment was that we were surprised that nobody tidied our room each day, so by the end of our 4 night stay our bins were overflowing and crockery had to be washed every time we used them - we haven't experienced this before in accommodation...

As mentioned above, the fact that the room was not tidied each day.

Great B&B above the bar and restaurant, the staff couldn’t be more polite and helpful. My room had a sea view and was more than spacious. Tea and coffee making facilities are provided, breakfast was freshly cooked and more than ample.

I found the mattress on the bed on the soft side and I don’t think it is a quality product. The shower temperature fluctuates when the water is used in another room.

A little off the beaten track but superb scenery and quiet, so no problem sleeping. Ample and excellent breakfast, so much so that didn't need lunch that day.

Would have liked curtain linings as, with days getting longer, room bright when sun came up. Would have preferred a bath, rather than a shower cubicle, from which water was slow to drain away. Coffee cups in room were stained thus did not make coffee - only black mark I would give the place.

Located with an amazing outlook to the harbour, the bed was comfortable, the linen crisp and the room massive! Particularly liked the blackout blinds and curtains - important for a light sensitive sleeper like me. Breakfast was plentiful - highly recommend the omelettes and the coffee set you up for the day!

Bigger towels - bath sheets not towels, and three hand towels please! The hairdryer nozzle was broken and fell off a lot! The shower doors didn't quite meet But I'm being super super picky and none of it detracted from the stay.
