Delve into our dog-friendly cottages in Gretna Green and find self-catering accommodation to suit the whole family in this magical destination. Set in Dumfries and Galloway in Scotland, this small parish is on the edge of the town of Gretna (1 mile), close to the border with England. It’s steeped in history as a romantic destination for elopement since 1754 when young couples ran over the border to marry in Gretna Green. Renew your vows or tie the knot with a traditional handfasting at the blacksmith’s anvil. Shop, dine and go whisky tasting; or discover the love wall, maze and lock bridge. Visit the pet-friendly coach museum, gift shop and sculpture garden, or join in a wedding re-enactment as a fun holiday activity.
Venture towards the Devil’s Porridge Museum in Eastriggs (6 miles) the site of a world war munitions factory. Visit Gilknockie Tower in the Debatable Lands (11 miles), a 16th-century stronghold of the Clan Armstrong which hosts family-friendly activities, art exhibitions and historical re-enactments. Dare to head over the border to England and visit the vibrant city of Carlisle (11 miles) where you can explore the 16th-century medieval fortress of Carlisle Castle, the Cumbria Museum of Military Life, and the city’s Roman heritage. Back in Scotland, don’t miss the dreamy 13th-century moated Caerlaverock Castle surrounded by a lush green pasture, woodland and nature reserve (23 miles). Book Gretna Green dog-friendly holiday cottages and plan the most romantic of escapes together.
