Smiths at Gretna Green Hotel

My wife and I booked our wedding for July 24 2025. From the moment we made contact with Gretna the communication was excellent and nothing was too much trouble. We booked The Smiths Hotel at Gretna,the rooms were fantastic,spotless and very comfortable. All our guests were very happy. The wedding day was perfect even down to the weather. Our ceremony ran like clockwork,the venue steeped in rich history which we are now a part of. The reception and pre wedding food was outstanding and the wedding sweet was set out beautifully to welcome our guests. Our wedding planner Amber was always available when we needed her or wanted a question asked,we can’t speak highly enough of her. She made our day perfect. 10/10

We stayed overnight at Smiths as we were having a Handfasting Ceremony at Gretna Blacksmiths the next day. We arrived slightly early, no problem, our room was ready. We had booked a Deluxe Double room, bed, breakfast and evening meal. Our view was to the front of the hotel, the lovely countryside, to the left was the Blacksmiths. The room was spacious and clean. The bed was very comfortable. There was an iron and ironing board and a hairdryer, also a kettle and coffee, tea, hot chocolate and biscuits. A flat screen tv, plenty of hanging space with hangers supplied. For anyone staying in the colder months there is an electric fire. The bathroom was spacious, a lovely clean shower, hand basin, with shower gel, hand soap and moisturiser and a heated towel rail. Our table for our evening meal was in The Chainmail restaurant. My husband had leek and potato soup and I had prawn cocktail to start. The only disappointment was they had run out of my favourite starter of scallops. For our mains my husband had the battered fish and chunky chips, mushy peas and tartar sauce, I had the Gretna Burger. My husband had the peach melba for his sweet, I opted for a coffee. Both meals were plentiful and delicious. From arrival to departure the staff were lovely. Special mentions for Roberta whom we had a lovely chat too and Lynne at the reception desk, both ladies were very helpful and considerate. We had such a wonderful time both at Smiths and at The Blacksmiths, thanks to everyone involved.

Amazing we booked our wedding and stayed in smiths for two nights amazing experience. All staff were welcoming and nothing was too much trouble, lovely room and food was nice.
