Amazing hotel with lots of parking, very modern feeling and friendly staff who couldnt do enough for you. We were blown away by our stay in the Ash suite and would go recommend to anyone.

Stopped here on the way up to Scotland for the night using their motorhome britstop facility, had a lovely evening meal and Buffett breakfast next morning before heading north. Amazing food in a beautiful place.its right next to the Gretna green blacksmiths. The motorway does run right behind it so there is a bit of road noise but that didn't bother us.

We booked a table for afternoon tea. Easy parking and a warm welcome. The food and the service were excellent. We would highly recommend and it was lovely to see several newlyweds from the iconic Gretna Green enjoying their food.

Where do I start? Amazing place to get married. Staff can't do enough to make it special and all about you. Bianca was particularly great. Nothing was too much trouble. Wish we could do it all again!

I drove over 30 miles on Monday at 1.00 pm to purchase vouchers for Xmas to be told it was on line only. I explained I had no printer or the way with all to do this. However the receptionists not interested, I also work in the hospitality sector and I would have went that bit more to help and resolve the customers request. I did however take my valued custom elsewhere and the service was amazing.

For a four star hotel it's looking a tad shabby. Mould on the tiles under the shower really isn't acceptable.

Really friendly and helpful staff. Tom(?) was brilliant, always smiling having a chat and couldn't do enough for us. The rooms were nice, a little outdated, but clean and comfortable. As for the food, fantastic, every dish we had was so tasty, well presented and plentiful. The breakfast was a "help yourself" buffet style, it was topped up regularly and was really nicely cooked. Would recommend a stay while in the area.

This hotel is an absolut disgrace by taking and keeping my funds because I had to cancel due to an illness, NEVER will I recommend using them for any purpose whatsoever!

Was really nervous about our wedding on 4th November after reading some reviews last minute. However we had such a blessed time. We had nothing to worry about at all. The venue was lovely. The food was incredible (not just the wedding food but the resteraunt too). Rooms were clean and suitable, yes tired but no concerns at all. We were made to feel very special and everything was well organised and planned by the wedding hosts. Such a relaxed, joy filled weekend and wedding day. Anyone who is getting married in the original blacksmiths room, I highly recommend and also adding the Scottish Piper was such an emotional experience to pipe myself into the room. Yes there was 1 lady on reception who clearly hated her job and needed cheering up, but the rest of the staff were absolutely incredible. Can't stop thinking about the whole weekend and all of our guests enjoyed themselves too.

Were booked in for two nights and decided to upgrade to the cottages. Everything about it was really good untill today. We were out for the day and came back to find housekeeping had been in. They started to clear the bathroom of our stuff which was put in a plastic bag. My wife's stuff taken off it's hangers and packed into her bag. Bathroom was cleared of our stuff an put in a plastic bag. Fridge was cleared of things we had there and threw out. Seems before they went too far they were in the wrong room. So they have managed to spoil what was up to now a good stay. Would have given this a better star rating if this hadn't happened.

Visited this pub yesterday and it was great, very quiet but service was top notch and it has to be one of cleanest pubs I've ever been in. The best pint of Stella I've ever had. Didn't have food but I will definitely be back.
