The pretty harbour village of Garlieston became famous for the sea trials of the structures for the floating Mulberry Harbours, used off Normandy immediately after d-Day. Garlieston was chosen as a secret location for its trials because the tides were similar to that of Normandy. The remains of two wrecked “beetles” on Eggerness rocks, the remains of the “hippo” at Rigg Bay can be seen. Today, Garlieston is popular with tourists, with sandy beaches and stunning coastal and cliff top walks. Some 7 miles away is Wigtown, which was officially designated “Scotland’s National Book Town” in 1998 and is home to a wide range of bookshops and cafes. The Galloway Forest Park is also located nearby and is an ideal centre for a large range of outdoor activities including walking and mountain biking, world famous 7 stanes cycling routes, fishing and enjoying the countryside.
