No mobile car valeter listed in Stranraer yet.

A mobile car valeter cleans, polishes and details your vehicle at your home or workplace - saving you the trip to a car wash and delivering a far superior finish.

Services typically range from a basic exterior wash and interior vacuum to a full detail including machine polishing, wax protection and leather conditioning.

A good local valeter will know how to deal with Scottish weather damage, salt corrosion and the kind of mud that comes with country roads - and they come to you, so your car gets the treatment without leaving the driveway.

Stranraer is a town at the head of Loch Ryan in the far west of Dumfries and Galloway, historically the main ferry port for crossings to Northern Ireland.

The ferry services relocated to Cairnryan in 2011 and the town has since focused on regeneration - the waterfront and harbour area are being reimagined as a leisure and marina destination.

Stranraer has a compact town centre with local shops, a museum in the 16th-century Castle of St John and the nearby Castle Kennedy Gardens, one of the finest landscaped gardens in Scotland.

The town sits at the western end of the A75, with a rail station providing connections east to Dumfries and Glasgow.

Dumfries and Galloway is the most south-westerly council area in Scotland, stretching from the English border at Gretna to the Mull of Galloway - the southernmost point in Scotland - and from the Solway Firth coast inland to the hills of the Southern Uplands.

Dumfries is the largest town and administrative centre, a handsome red sandstone burgh on the River Nith where Robert Burns spent the last years of his life and is buried in St Michael's Kirkyard.

The region divides naturally into three historic areas: Dumfriesshire to the east, Kirkcudbrightshire (the Stewartry) in the centre and Wigtownshire to the west - each with its own character, landscape and loyalties.

The Galloway coast and countryside have a mild climate influenced by the Gulf Stream, fertile farmland, dark-sky reserves and a string of small harbour towns that attract artists, writers and visitors drawn to the quiet and the landscape.

Despite its size, the region is one of the most sparsely populated in Scotland - a place where community is strong, the pace is slower and the landscape ranges from river valleys and rolling farmland to wild moorland and rocky coastline.
