Very warm and welcoming hotel with friendly hosts -nothing too much trouble. Looking forward to a return visit.

Food was great, host was v friendly and helpful. Hotel is a little dated but it doesn’t matter at all! Excellent value.

A lovely place for an overnight stop. We were made very welcome, the food was great along with the room. It was so good we are thinking of a longer stay in the future to explore the area.

This is a great place for a stopover en route to the Highlands of Scotland. Really good value.A friendly welcome from Linda. Good breakfast and dinner. Comfortable compact room and shower room with all the necessities-hairdryer, tea/coffee, iron etc. Walking distance to a very good shopping outlet.

Nice rooms, friendly and very helpful good breakfast too.Good for independent travellers

The hotel was lovely and clean. The staff/owner was polite, helpful and efficient. Rooms and breakfast were very good. Thank you 😊

Stopped here for 1 night on way from London to Speyside and a good choice it was.Easy to find, comfortable room and bed and both dinner and breakfast were excellent choices.Fiona was very convivial and very organised.No hesitation in staying here again.

Made to feel welcome the moment you walk in, lovely breakfast and very close to all amenities

Stayed here for our wedding weekend. Lovely spacious room, we had the bridal suite. Linda sorted everything, great communication throughout and food was fantastic, home cooked and handmade, everyone really enjoyed it. Thanks for making the day so special. Highly recommend.

Just a one night overstay, with a warm welcome, lovely evening meal and comfy beds. Also made us breakfast to go for our leaving time. Owners friendly and accommodating. Would recommend.

The evening meal was fabulous, breakfast too.The beds were beautifully decorated and comfortable.

We had a lovely time and were well looked after by our host. The room was fairly basic but large and comfortable, but the location was perfect for a wedding at the gretna blacksmiths

Highly recommend.We stayed overnight on way to Wales. Very friendly owner. Lovely spotless room. Very comfy bed. Had excellent evening meal. Very good value.Breakfast was very good as well.

Clean ,welcoming and good value for money food.

Linda was really helpful in accommodating our severely delayed arrival.We were very happy with the room and would like to have stayed a further night but all rooms were booked.

Very welcoming, an excellent rest stop for a long journey.

Fine place to stay. Staff were happy to keep our bikes in a secure location. Food was good value. Rooms were comfortable.

Nice room in a beautiful atmosphere, hosts that care, can you ask for more?

We had a great stay. Linda and Gary were perfect hosts. Nice premises, great food, in fact we couldn’t fault the placr

3 couples stayed 1 night, perfectly adequate, everything you could need coffee machine + pods provided, tea, coffee + biscuits, hairdryer, body wash, iron + board outside in corridor. Delicious fry up, toast, jam, cereals + juice, not ultra modern but spotlessly clean. Great value.

Clean and comfortable good food . Linda was very friendly and helpful

Stayed at this lovely hotel to break up our journey to Scotland.Lovely big en-suite room with good quality fresh linen and towels. Evening meal and breakfast were both delicious. Thank you Linda and Gary for your excellent service and hospitality , Highly recommended. Hope to see you soon.

very friendly staff, nice & clean rooms, a good stop on the way to the Highlands

This Inn or BnB, met all our requirements. It was comfortable, a short walk from the train platform and above all quiet! The staff was friendly and helpful. They even loaned us an adapter since we had somehow lost one in all of our travels.

Very difficult to describe but generally this property requires some TLC. Very warm reception and nice enough food without being exceptionalPrevious review box title a little confusing.

PLEASANT ROOM AND STAYFOOD FRESH AND TASTY

We broke our journey to holiday on the Isle of Bute after travelling from Kent. We were met by the welcoming owner and made to feel at home. Very comfortable room and bed and an excellent 'full english' breakfast which set us up well refreshed for the rest of our journey.

Friendly welcome, clean and comfortable, ample parking and most importantly a very comfortable bed in a spacious room. Walking distance to everywhere in town.

My wife and I booked this as an overnight stay to break our journey up to Dundee. The room was excellent and straight from the Carpark into our room was a major help as my wife is disabled and has walking difficulties.Very welcoming check in and made to feel welcome. We had a slight problem with the TV and it was looked at immediately and sorted. Comfy bed and a warm room made our stay very comfortable. In the morning we booked breakfast the night before and we were both served with a lovely and hot Scottish breakfast. I would highly recommend this hotel and will certainly be using it again in the future. The owners were excellent and attentive to our needs. Thank You.

I was made to feel very welcome at Hunters Lodge Hotel, through the booking process, during my stay, and after, when I received a message to say I had left a travel mug in my room and was able to collect it on my return journey past.I hope to stay again.

Totally enjoyed my stay at Hunters lodge. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and clean with a comfortable bed. Breakfast was delicious 😋

We stayed here Fri to sun last weekend, and from the minute we walked in we were greeted with a smile and made welcome, the hotel was spotlessly clean, and the room was a brilliant size for a family, even had a table and.chairs for the grand daughters to sit and drawn. It was lovely to see such a good amount of teabags and. Coffee and sugar in the room,that makes a lovely change, we do like our cups of tea, we had a continental breakfast due to the kids probably wasting a fry up, but there was plenty of choice we were very happy with the whole experience, would definitely recommend to friends and family, very friendly, spotless clean, and food excellent.

As always friendly staff, clean pleasant room, ideal for a small family. A quiet ideal location to visit the famous Gretna Green and surrounding area. Not too far if wishing to visit Carlisle or Dumfries and Galloway. Good value for money and more importantly a pleasant place to stay. Would recommend to friends.

Great location, especially when travelling by car.Very welcoming and helpful proprietors.Comfortable, cosy rooms with all the necessary amenities.Great choice of breakfast options/prices and evening meals decently priced and delicious.

A last-minute booking after searching for an overnight stop on a long journey, we were relieved to find Hunter's Lodge had an ideal 'triple' room available for myself, my husband, and our teenage daughter. Arriving late, it was a welcoming check-in, and our rooms were well set-up and very comfortable, with a homely and traditional feel but with all mod cons.Would definitely recommend and happily return!

Stayed one night. Didn’t book breakfast.Very nice large double room.Comfortable bed.Receptionist helpful. Enjoyed my stay.

Unfortunately, I had planned to stay only one night, but I highly recommend it for a a week as the directory gives you things to seeand drives in the whole area.The food is great especially if you like pasta cooked like in Italy (and an affogato😉)

What a find the welcome could not be better so freindly after a very long drive it was so nice to get the welcome i did great parking and the room spotless I highly recommend hunters lodge to you i will be definitely hoing back thank you

I regularly work in Carlisle and have stayed at many hotels in the Gretna area. This is my new favourite it has everything you need, great food and nice clean rooms I really liked that is was very quiet at night. Breakfast starting time is a little late for me but you do get a really nice coffee machine in the room. I'll definitely be back.

I arrived in the pouring rain to a warm welcome from Linda Dodd.The room was clean and spacious as was the bath room. Dinner was good as was the service. I left first thing the next morning and I would certainly recommend Hunters Lodge Hotel. I left in the sunshine but soon the rain started and I realised I had left ny jacket in the room. I had a long journey home but almost as soon as I got in I had a phone call from Linda to tell me she had found it. I sent her a pre-paid label, she put in the the bag and it's now on its way back. Thank you Linda.

1st stay at Hunters Lodge,the bedroom etc was super clean. We had a meal there in the evening which was very nice. And breakfast was also good.

Lovely welcome, clean and tidy room, good parkjng, excellent breakfast

We stayed here for one night room was nice and clean we had bar meals and breakfast all food was lovely.Host was very nice.

We used Hunters lodge as a stop over to going to the Isle of Skye.Lyn was lovely welcoming us and made us feel very welcomed.Our room was clean and tidy and most importantly comfortable.The Continental breakfast was filling.We would stay here again and highly recommend to our friends and family

We use this hotel on many occasions for our base before the National 3 Peaks Challenge.Always a relaxing experience and gorgeous breakfast before the task ahead . Many thanks Linda.x

Very pleased with the room, we were breaking our journey up north, staff were very pleasant.

I cannot fault our stay at Hunters Lodge Hotel in any way. I booked a room through their website and added a note about requiring a ground floor room due to my husband’s mobility issues. I was emailed immediately to let me know that my original booking was unfortunately a 1st floor room but was advised that this could be easily changed. Everything was amended swiftly. We received regular emails reminding us to book an evening meal if required and the need to have checked in by 9.30pm (no night porter). On the day of check in we were greeted warmly and advised we could order breakfast up until last orders. Our room was easily accessible and we were able to park right outside it. It was a spacious room (which easily accommodated wheelchair use), had a lovely, comfortable bed and tea/coffee facilities. It was quiet and private. The guest folder was informative and we’re glad that we detoured the next day to visit the Devil’s Porridge Museum (which was recommended in the folder). Check out was also easy and straightforward. Thank you for a great experience.

Stayed here quite a few times now. Linda and Gary are excellent hosts. It's a lovely place and the food is excellent too. Would definitely recommend and we'll definitely be back.

We really enjoyed our brief stay as part of a li her cycle trip in Scotland and northern England. Really appreciated the bike storage and delicious meals.

I needed somewhere to rest for only a few hours on 2 nights. Linda, was so helpful and I could not have made my trip without her being so accommodating.

Clean and tidy Lodge , good breakfast A+++

We stayed at Hunters Lodge Hotel for 2 nights in a nice ground floor room, with car parking right outside the door. We dined in the restaurant both nights and though the menu is not extensive, what we had was very good. We hope to return in the near future.

Great stay, the rooms are a good size with plenty of space and are spotless, the beds are really comfy which meant we got a good night's sleep ,the meals are really good and the breakfast was tasty and big enough to keep me going most of the day. Linda makes you feel welcome from when you enter till you leave, and nothing is any bother to her. You can see Linda and Gary put a lot of hard work into the business , we will definitely be back.

We chose Hunters Lodge for a dip on our way to Scotland. It was everything we want clean, warm, comfortable and a good price. The staff/ owner was very friendly to. Well done

Very comfortable room, Dinner was exceptional, breakfast hearty and filling.

Second visit and as excellent as the first. Clean, comfortable welcoming hotel. Delicious evening meal and breakfast.

We stayed here twice, either side of the Easter weekend on our way to and from visiting family in the north of Scotland. The hotel was a lovely relaxing place to stay after a long drive. The rooms were comfortable and the meals were really enjoyable. Linda looked after us very well. Would definitely recommend a stay here.

The perfect place to stay.Only one night but would happily have stayed longer.A very warm and friendly welcome from Linda.Room was very clean and the bed extremely comfortable. We are more than happy to recommend to others and this will be our first choice in the future.Thank you.

The place was lovely and cozy, the room was beautifully laid out and my kids absolutely loved it and took loads of pictures to remember it. Would definitely recommend and stay again when I'm there again

Made very welcome from booking to end of stay. Lovely comfortable room. Delicious evening meal and breakfast. Would highly recommend staying at Hunters Lodge.

Very welcoming, tasty homemade food. Really lovely with our two young children. Rooms had character, which we love and clean. Nice quiet location, within few minute drive from Gretna Green. Would stay again if headed that way.

Hunters Lodge Hotel provided a lovely setting for our wedding party ~ very close to Gretna Registration Office. Historically interesting building, friendly and helpful staff. Relaxed enjoyable stress free lunch. All our guests enjoyed the party.

A very comfortable room, friendly welcome and excellent location for our onward travel to Northern Ireland.

Great hotel to stay at. Enough parking room, easy to find. Staff we’re very helpful.

good food with helpful service etc...

The directions and instructions for check in were clear, the room was adorable and had everything we needed but what really made the visit was our host.We had trouble with our hire car and Linda went above and beyond to help us try to sort it out and was flexible with our schedule.We hope to return another time and will definitely be staying with Linda at Hunters Lodge!

Great little hotel in Gretna; close to the wedding venue, it that's what you need. I used it as a stopping off point en route to the Scottish Highlands.Very welcoming staff; comfortable family room to stay it. The family room we had was pretty much two adjoining rooms, with a door between, very comfortable, with the en suite facilities shared between the two rooms.Evening meal was very good, but the hotel advises you to book a table in advance. This restaurant gets quite busy, so would advise you do book in advance. Hunters Ragu Pasta is a popular menu item and this is highly recommended. Very good food in my opinion.Breakfast wasn't included in our booking but can be added on arrival. Good choice of cereals and juices, and breakfast items cooked freshly.

Excell rooms excellent food excellent service excellence in cleanliness excellent comfort Linda and Garry went above and yond 100 percent perfection in everything thank you I would love to stay again very luxurious stay

I needed an hotel for an overnight stop on my way back down from Dundee, and Hunters Lodge fitted the bill.The Owners, the food and accommodation were lovely.

we stayed one night. room was comfortable and the bed was great. bathroom small but very clean, soap and shampoo provided. coffee and tea in the room. we had a lovely dinner and breakfast in the morning was super! host linda was very friendly

What a lovely stay. Staff were friendly and the grab and go breakfast was excellent.

Stayed here for 2 nights recently. My room was clean and comfortable with everything you needed. The owner is very welcoming and as I'm on crutches made a point of helping with my luggage etc. Restaurant had a good selection of reasonably priced dishes. All good! I'd certainly stay here again. It's a handy stop off point if you are traveling up to other parts of Scotland.

Excellent service and excellent food

My daughter and I stayed here as we was attending a wedding.We was greeted with a lovely lady, our room was ready before 3, we was very grateful.Everything was just perfect here, we would recommend to anyone to stay here. Thankyou for everything.

Our room was at the front of the hotel overlooking the road (which was quiet) very comfortable with everything that we needed.The shower room was small, but clean and tidy with nice towels. We stayed for one night as a stopover on our way to start the NC500.

Dinner was good bar was goodroom was large and clean

What a lovely place,staff are so friendly and polite. It is a little dated and could do with some modern touches, The full breakfast are delicious,the portion size is just right it is served with a pot of fresh coffee. We stayed for our nephew wedding as it is only minutes away from the old blacksmith shop.

Very comfortable with everything supplied - had dinner which was excellent- plenty of parking and very pleasant owners, couldn't ask for more.Will definitely be back!

Enjoyed our stay it was very clean no problems at all staff very friendly

Had another stay in the Hunters Lodge, as usual met by a very friendly helpful receptionist and guided to our comfortable room with all you need.

On our trip back to England from Scotland we stopped off in Gretna Green over night, Hunters Lodge was our choice for the night, it was absolutely first class.

An enjoyable stay. Looked after very well by the friendly, helpful Linda.

A warm welcome from our helpful and friendly host, Linda.Spacious, clean, quiet and comfortable bedroom.Adequate on-site parking.Splendid meals, with plenty of choice.Very good value for money.We fully recommend this hotel.

The Lady was so helpful, my husband has to have oxygen, every thing we needed to make our stay a good she did. Wonderful will go again.

Nice people , clean , food good ….perfect for a short stay xxxx

Booked at the last minute due to initial stay elsewhere being uninhabitable (not in Gretna)! Arrived early, and lady offered to call us as soon as room was ready (which she did). Nice little hotel, very friendly.Nice wee bar, beer garden. We were in one of the chalets and it was great. Definitely recommend and if we’re back in the area, definitely stay again.

The hotel was amazing, very reasonable price and amazing staff room was perfect

We have just returned from a 2 night stay at Hunters Lodge. We were a family of 7 over 3 generations staying in 2 family rooms which were perfect for us, very clean and comfortable. Linda made us welcome on our arrival and continued to look after us throughout our stay. We had an issue with our shower but it was promptly dealt with.Breakfast was well cooked and delicious! There was plenty of choice from which you ordered the night before.We didn't have an evening meal there but we may have missed a treat as they certainly smelt lush! Would not hesitate to stay at Hunters Lodge again.

The owners linda & gary are very welcoming,and friendly,rooms are immaculateand well equipped,highly recommended

Very comfortable,easy to find, staff pleasant and helpful food good

The food was brilliant as were the owners in attending to your every need.

Friendly and welcoming staff. Very comfortable and quiet room. Good home cooked food. Easy access from motorway. Walking distance to shopping outlet.

Arrive in the poring rain to a warm welcome and a clean tidy warm room.Dined in the hotel that night and had a very comforting, warming mealThe Red lentil soup was excellent with a very good main course of scampi and chips to follow.Served by Linda and with a smile and a story to tell.Breakfast was just as good and served with good heart at the early start of the day.

We had a fantastic stay at the Hunters Lodge Hotel. We used Gretna as a base to do some sightseeing and of course shopping. The hosts were absolutely lovely and couldn't have been more helpful when it came to seeing the sights. Beds were also super comfy and food was really really good. I thought the evening meal portions were a bit on the small side, but this left room for dessert! 10/10 would recommend.

It was a joy to return to the warm friendly atmosphere of Hunters Lodge. The hospitality is wonderful and, once again we enjoyed Garry's exquisite cooking. It is a hotel to which we will keep returning.

Beautiful building and lot of history with it . Nice place to stay

I had the pleasure of staying for 2 nights. The hotel owners were very welcoming and friendly. The room was very comfortable, spacious, quiet and immaculately clean. Food was excellent. Very good value. I Would definitely stay again. Highly recommended

Hello. We have to say how wonderful are stay was at the Hunters lodge hotel ,This is a hotel we visit we stay at when we travel to Gretna and the surrounding area. There is always a friendly greeting on arrival along with a chat that always mentions useful information about the area etc. Our room was very comfortable ,warm and a great en-suite. Our evening meal turned out to be one of the best meals we have had for a long while , the beef we had was first class ! clearly a lot of care and skill went into the preparation. After a great nights sleep we had the pleasure of a great breakfast , before leaving .

We have been staying at Hunters Lodge for over two years now and we allways have a very warm welcome from Linda & Gary. The hotel is very homely and all the rooms we have stayed in are clean & comfortable. We allways enjoy the food, which is home cooked, breakfast is excellent as are the evening meals & of course a "G & T" & wee dram (or two) to finish.For our latest stay of 17th - 20th July there was hand sanitiser & wipes in the room and at various positions around the hotel making this very "Covid Friendly". We are looking forward to returning in September.Caole & malcolm

We stayed the first night lockdown ended, pre booked for our 25th wedding anniversary, returning to where we were married. Excellent service prior to our stay and so well looked after when there too.We were very much reassured with extra health and safety measures to address COVID concerns and Linda went over and above to make sure we were comfortable and had a wonderful time. Thanks for looking after us all those years later!

Stayed overnight following shopping at Gretna outlet. 7 minute walk. Owners very friendly. Room very clean and comfortable. Tea and coffee facilities. Would recommend and stay again

We are a couple , who like so many over the years , married at Gretna Green.As a result of this we have a deep fondness to Gretna and the place where we got married. As Valentines day approached we decided to return to the Hunter.s Lodge for a romantic meal . The staff as always were friendly , helpful and informative . The food is first class and our room with en suite , all excellent ,very comfortable . Plenty of car parking and located in a great locationie close to all the local facility's

Very peaceful and comfortable, with a lovely breakfast and friendly host.

Our first visit to this hotel and we were met with a friendly warm welcome, our room for three adults was actually a single & double connecting rooms so great for us. Only issue was the pressure and temperature of shower but apart from that clean comfortable rooms, great value for money and lovely breakfast. Good location for Gretna Gateway and Carlisleonly a short journey away.

Nice clean welcoming hotel. Check in easy, excellent food, lovely room. A nice friendly place to stay.

It is always a pleasure to visit this hotel.The rooms are spacious and décor first class.The location, meals and owners are just what you want for a good holiday. We will return again.

We didn't check in till late but we had an message from Hunters Lodge informing us of last check in time which was very polite and helpful. The lady who i am assuming was the owner was absolutely lovely and very welcoming.The room was lovely and bed comfortable .Excellent value for money,will definitely stay here again .

Having tried many times to contact booking.com without success as they had not given us a PIN number we brought our visit forward one night.We were treated very well and we booked a twin room.Everything was excellent,staff,room and food.Would certainly stay with you again.

Superb,little,hotel in a perfect location. Upon arrival the owner/receptionist/hostess, upgraded us to a larger room.we had 3 rooms for 5 adults.all rooms were a good size with all that we needed in them. The breakfast was amazing ,esp the haggis balls. This hotel was a perfect place for the registry office,shops and bars. Its such a relaxed atmosphere.We definitely recomend staying here.

After a drive that took 2 hours longer than expected it was lovely to be welcomed at the hotel. It was very cosy and friendly and even though they had stopped serving meals they kindly made us food as we had been stuck for so long in traffic. Very comfortable rooms and bed, so a great nights sleep. Linda was very helpful and I think this is an ideal hotel for touring around the borders. I would definitely stay again when back in the area.

Lovelg room. Lovely food. Lovely lady who was extremely helpful. Will book again

The hotel was very welcoming from when we arrived through to our departure.It was the perfect stop over for us.We would certainly return.

We had a very relaxing overnight stay at Hunters Lodge. Our room was very clean light and spacious with everything we required. Comfortable beds with white cotton bedding.Our continental breakfast was ideal and our thoughtful host made us feel as if nothing was too much trouble.A delightful privately owned hotel with old world charm, which is well worth a visit whether as a single night stopover or a more extended stay to enjoy the surrounding area which offers border life adventures.We will certainly be returning.

Very friendly staff adequate breakfast nice clean room roasting bath very comfortable bed nice kebab shop 2 minutes walk away central to everything no complaints whatsoever

Excellent stay. Had our usual room with bath. Evening meal very good. Pleasant evening in bar with our host.

It would be difficult to find a hotel that can give better value than Hunters Lodge. We are returning clients and ALWAYS find the hospitality, the cleanliness of the rooms and the quality of the meals exceptional. Good luck in the Great North Run on Sunday Garry

We were so pleased with our stay here. The room was modern with a cool highland cow theme and the bathroom was spacious with a large bath. Our room was accessible directly from the car park which was useful for us and gave us privacy. The staff were attentive and made sure we had enough teabags etc.The breakfast was a lovely fry up with a Scottish style which was really nice. There were also lovely croissants and juice to help ourselves to. Breakfast was between 8-9 which is really nice as it’s not too early. The owner was really lovely and offered us advice if we needed it.I would recommend this to anyone it’s very reasonable.

Lovely room, excellent food and friendly staff. Would recommend a stay here

Perfect stay in this lovely, clean B&B. Friendly welcome and fab evening meal. The breakfast was amazing!!! Very central too. Only stayed 1 night but would have loved to have stayed longer.

We had a great overnight stay here, about a mile from the historic Blacksmith Shop. The beds were very comfortable. Even with 3 beds (1 king, 2 twins) the room felt spacious.We ordered the grab-n-go breakfasts which were simple, but delivered right to our room. The owners were wonderful and very kind.

Stayed for one night with my friend.Was greeted in a very friendly manner.Found the hotel very clean and comfortable.Would recommend.

Place was clean and tidy breakfast was superb

We stayed overnight on route to Northern Ireland and this hotel provided everything we needed.From the moment we walked through the door and were greeted with a warm welcome to the point where we checked out.

Accommodation was excellent, a friendly welcome, good food, lovely atmosphere. Would recommend for short or longer stay.

Stayed at Hunters Lodge overnight en route to Manchester from Inverness.Very comfortable and clean.We didn't eat there this time as we had an early start in the morning but have eaten there in the past - excellent.Will book in when next visiting the south.

Whilst touring Scotland in our van we stumbled across this little gem. What used to be an ex officers mess was now a warm welcoming hotel. We had been drenched for couple of nights we thought sod it we have a hotel for the night. We met Linda the hostess a bubbly character. She made us feel welcome straight away. The rooms are large with an equally large ensuite. Both spacious. We did find the bed too hard for our liking but that's our issue not the hotels. The food was tasty and plentiful, and reasonably priced. The bar also reasonably priced. Though our our short stay Linda and her team worked not stop to make us feel comfortable. Her local knowledge outside of the standard weddings and forge was interesting and her knowledge of local points of interest is never ending. A great place to stay and will hopefully return for another visit

Lovely welcome, lovely stay. Lovely food!What more could you ask for!

Only stayed one night as we were heading north, but made to feel really welcome. Room was spotless. Food was very good, we had a bar meal in the evening and a particularly good breakfast. Glad we chose this instead of one of the hotels on the M6.

7 of us came to stay at the hotel, we got married at the blacksmith,not one of us have a bad word to say, accommodation was perfect the family who run the hotel were lovely and welcoming.We would highly recommend Hunters lodge to others with children.

Absolutelly amazing time spending in this hotel - super staff members and delicious breakfast - I recomend this place. I'm back there is possible soon ^^

Lovely little hotel, fabulous hostess, who keeps the chef well hidden! Nice room, excellent service.

Lovely family run hotel. Room was lovely and clean and spacious. Food was very good

Spacious room in a beautiful little lodge run by friendly, helpful people who are very knowledgeable about the area and it’s hist.Wish we could have stayed longer.

Very comfortable and pleasant overnight stay. Good evening meal and continental breakfast.

Been before ,good place to relax and eat ,bit of site seeing ,good breakfast lovely hosts.

Lovely accommodation with very friendly staff. Recommend Hunters Lodge for all age groups.

Hotel location is very good for all attractions, rooms could do with being upgraded. Good bed and nice breakfast. But bathroom could do with grab rails to help guests get in and out bath/ shower

Comfortable sleep . Lovely breakfast.

Perfectly placed to explore the area and easy walking distance to all Gretna Green has to offer. Good comfy beds and spacious rooms.

Breakfast and eve meal excellent

excellent service from check-in to check-outTHANK YOU

Excellent stay good food comfortable accommodation

Another great stay with family, Linda and Garry are fantastic hosts who willingly go the extra mile. Comfy beds, spacious rooms in a quiet location, the food is exceptional and the lemon tart is to die for. See you in September!

Great wee hotel to stop off in Gretna for shopping and food was nice.

Warm, friendly and very helpful staff. The twin room was comfortable, clean and a good size for two. A very restful night.Good information on facilities that were available if needed.Not far to wall to the Gretna Outlet and the Blacksmith's Forge.Can't comment on breakfast because we had to leave early and didn't have any.

Lovely place to stay. Good food very comfy bed and hosts great people. Good choice for breakfast shame I was a little under the weather to do it justice. I would come here again.

Lovely Hotel, plenty of character. Building was formerly an Officers Mess.Nice room (2) comfy bed, (two singles) lovely big TV, nice bathroom with shower. Sliding door between bathroom and bedroom did not close fully, but I was travelling solo, so it was not a problem. Nice informal eating area. Lovely smoked haddock fishcake, was delicious and filling. Lovely selection of Gins. Great freshly cooked breakfast in the morning, with additional choices of fruit, croissants and yogurts. Welcoming and hard working hostess. A lovely little Hotel,plenty of parking. Great value for money. Easy access to main A75 route. Highly recommended.

We had a good nights sleep in a comfortable bed and a lovely breakfast the next morning to send us on our way.

Close to register office, retail outlet.Clean, nicely decorated rooms. Bathroom small.Staff friendly and helpful, went extra mile by chilling our prossecco for us. Highly recommend.

Hotel staff were very welcoming and could not do enough for us. Food in hotel was excellent and could not fault a thing. Hotel was a little dated but was spotlessly clean. Beds very comfortable.

very friendly staff, very spacious room, lovely food, no real complaints. Would definitely come back

Would definitely visit again if I’m in that neck of the woods. The proprietress Linda was very welcoming and friendly, made my family feel at home. We were glad we had the full breakfast in the morning as that kept us going most of the day. Accommodation was clean, the pint of Carling was refreshing. Definitely plan a stay if your passing.

Had a great time, care and attention from staff was super the whole weekend. Ideally located next to shops and various outlets. Would certainly recommend this place to friends and family.

Very nice hotel. Room clean and tidy, bed very comfortable. Breakfast was excellent.Rm 15, the TV is to far away, needs moving to a closer wall. Apart from that, we will definitely be staying again in 2 years time.

Just as welcoming as usual. We will be back

Clean affordable room. Excellent for our short stay.

Hotel was as good as it always is.good evening meal and breakfast.Always well looked after here. Look forward to our next visit.

Perfect little bnb if you're a guest at a wedding.Beds are comfortable, rooms are clean.Fresh towels daily if you need them.Staff sre very helpful and friendly.Would highly recommend.

Had to laugh. Everyone else in the Birthday party stayed in the big expensive lovely looking Hotel a mile away. They complained of; Bad sleep because rooms like saunas, broken toilets, green mold all around the silicon bath seal and, apparently, the breakfast sausages where appalling.( Not to mention the price of ale...)They should have stayed at The Hunters.Lovely room. Clean, very roomy, perfect temperature for sleep in the big comfy bed. Friendly staff and absolutely no mold anywhere to be seen.Cant knock that at less than half the price all our friends payed. Ha!Do yourself a favour - Stay at The Hunters.We

Once again first clas service received. First class service, first class accomodation andfirst class service. Looking to return very soon as the proprietors are very friendly and helpful.

Hunters Lodge is a lovely hotel. Very traditional and friendly.Clean room and good price.Would defiantly stay again.

Very helpful service clean,bright and spacious room. Comfortable four poster bed, breakfast was good nice cup of tea. Will stay there again highly recommend it.

Great value, friendly hosts great food

Had an unplanned two night stay at the hotel due to late reservations, which were the best deals around. The lady who checked me in on both occasions was very friendly and helpful. The second night I needed a hot bath after my days exploits and opted for the double room annexe. The room was spacious and had all I required for a relaxing evening. Enjoyed excellent fish and chips at the nearby takeaway, which was recommended to me at the hotel. The hotel is well positioned for a day out to the Borders, Cumbria, Dumfries & Galloway etc.

This was a late booking in the evening and we didn't know what to expect.When we arrived we were met by the owner who was very chatty and welcoming. The room was clean, warm and had coffee and tea making facilities. The bed was nice and firm and we had a great nights sleep. Linda brought us extra milk and coffee as were leaving early in the morning and were unfortunately unable to make breakfast.Great value, we will be using Hunters Lodge again.Thanks

A lovely warm welcome at reception by the owner. Put us at our ease and led us to a very pleasant room.We had freshly made pizza for supper, which was first class.Breakfast the following morning was also excellent. We'll be back

Hi there I would like to say that I had two stops at this hotel in ten days. The rooms were clean tidy and very spacious. We really liked the highland coo designed pictures and throws.

Had evening meal and breakfast on both visits all served with a happy attitude. Meals all very good.Overall a very pleasent stay. Would recommend highly for stay. In fact allready have.Andy Rose.

We once again very much enjoyed our stay at Hunters Lodge as we did 17 years ago when we were married. Thanks to Linda and Gary for all they did to make our stay memorable.

We stayed in the family room. It was a lovely large room. The service at the lodge was excellent. They went above and beyond to make us feel very welcome. Would highly recommend.

Booked in for one night while attending a family function locally. We didn't require many of the facilities but would stay again and use it as a base for exploring the surrounding area.

Everything was perfect - accommodation, meals, flowers, piper and car and thanks to your terrific organising skills it was truly stress-free! Everyone had a great time and really enjoyed it. Thank you once again and we all hope to see you again - maybe for Shaun's birthday and our first anniversary next year! Best wishes for continued success.

Just wanted to thank you all for having us stay at your hotel on our wedding weekend. It was perfect. Thanks to you for all your help in organising, it was a huge weight of our shoulders. A huge thanks to you all and your lovely staff for helping to make our special day and weekend EXTRA special.

Just a quick note to thank you so much for all your help with the guests for Hayley and Gary's wedding. The weekend was absolutely perfect and you all made us so welcome. Every member of your staff made us feel that nothing was too much trouble, even little Jak running around and causing mayhem everywhere! The food also was wonderful. I will certainly recommend you to anyone thinking of booking a wedding in Gretna

I want to thank you both for giving us a wonderful wedding weekend. We had a fantastic wedding. You made us all feel so welcome and nothing was any trouble to you

We would just like to say thank you for a very lovely stay in Gretna. You were more than helpful in all aspects and the room was great. The breakfast was excellent and you and your staff could not have been more helpful. We will remember our special day and this is in no small part due to the warm welcome we received from you and your staff. We would not hesitate to recommend you to our friends and family. We consider ourselves well travelled but this was probably one of the nicest places we have ever stayed. Thanks again

What more can we say, thank you so much for the wonderful welcome and hospitality from yourselves and your staff which are a credit to you. The delicious food was always served with a smile and nothing was too much trouble making the wedding of Peter and Barbara complete. I will recommend you to one and all. Thank you again

We just wanted to thank you for everything last week. You made sure everything went smoothly for our wedding day. Everyone had a lovely time.

I would like to say thank you very much for the excellent hospitality you showed us earlier this month. Our Wedding Day in Gretna was perfect and our stay at Hunter's Lodge was the icing on the cake

Just a quick word to say how we, the Banks family, enjoyed our stay at your hotel. The hotel was clean, friendly and very welcoming. The family room for five was perfect, just perfect, we couldn't ask for more. We will be sure to book with you should we ever travel into Scotland again. Thanks again.

Hi Linda. Jackie and I just wanted to thank you for all your help during both our wedding and the run up to it. Great dealing with you as nothing seemed to be to much trouble to you and you made the whole thing so much easier and we had a great day. We look forward to seeing you again next year when we celebrate our 1st anniversary.
