The Gables Hotel

8/10 Good

"Hotel is well placed in Gretna and accessible from M74. The room I was in was really clean and comfortable. Only concern was being next to a room where there was a dog and it barked in the night, breaking my sleep."

Bojangles Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing place. We loved everything……. a very friendly welcome on arrival, lovely spacious room with great decor and furnishings. Huge comfy bed, our favourite brand of Scottish toiletries in the bathroom. Some home- baked cookies with the tea and coffee tray. Best of all……it was all spotlessly clean. Breakfast choice was impressive and beautifully presented. We had a really perfect stay. We can definitely recommend Bojangles."
