A large contemporary hotel close to the Gretna Green complex. Though the blocky exterior won’t delight everybody, the interior is much more stylish; rooms are decorated in a chic, restrained style with king-sized beds. Various grades are available; the rates here represent typical online booking offers. The restaurant is the best around. There's a little noise from the adjacent motorway.
