Price could not be argued with, room was clean and tidey, you get what you pay for and i could not complain.
I have stayed here a few time now, rooms are fab, heating in the room was perfect as I hate a hotel room which doesn’t have great heating. Hot chocolate, tea, coffee and biscuits and a bottle of water provided. I would highly recommend this hotels to my friends and family. Staff were lovely too.
We had an amazing time in the Cottage it was beautiful, spacious & very clean & literally across the road from the wedding venue & the hotel is also 2 minutes walk away.
Amazing stay for my daughters wedding.
Attentive, friendly staff, who were always available to help if need.
Gorgeous food.
Would definitely recommend.
Perfect in every way
Thank you
Easy to find, friendly check in. Room was ok - I was just there for one night on business in the local area. Ate in the restaurant which was fine and breakfast was good.

Friendly helpful staff lovely room accommodation very good food availability
Only suggestion is a handle by the side of the bath to help getting in and out of shower and safe any slipping for older people
Stayed here for 1 night in a family room. The room was very big, plenty of space. Double bed was huge but it was actually 2 singles joined together which was great. There were bunk beds located in the room for kids. Only idsue was for some reason we could not get any sound from the tv in the kids area which was annoying as they had to watch the other tv in our bed. We went elsewhere for dinner but breakfast was amazing, great choice of food and kept being repelnsihed. If your stayimg in Gretna I would definitely consider this hotel, its a few £ more than others in the area but in my opinion its worth it

Really nice staff and handy for a wedding (5 mins walk). Beds are comfy and despite being beside the M6 and in a roadside room, I slept well. Bathroom was in need of refurbishment.

Great few days
We were at a family wedding and the stay was great. The bathrooms need a bit updating but overall it was a great stay. It was raining on the morning of the wedding but umbrellas were available. The staff were very attentive so overall a great stay

It’s was ok - friendly staff, room needs some maintenance works, toilet roll holder coming off the wall, paint chips.
Room only had 2 plug sockets which are not located from the bed.
Nice hotel, had a lovely meal in the restaurant. Room was nice but needed some attention to detail. Fire in the room wasn't working or i couldn't find the switch!
Door to the hotel corridor slammed on the second floor, so heard it every time someone used it. Some damping on the frame would solve the problem.

Room was cold, hotel was cold, bathroom was dirty. Wall near towel radiator was filthy with dirty watwr marks all down it. Not worth the money for value. Food was ok and staff were friendly. Its basically had a facelift on the front but is still in the 80s inside with ni working lift either.
