Great value stopover with a peaceful, comfortable room
Pros:

We stayed in Room 32 at the Days Inn Gretna Green, and it was an excellent, high-value stopover for visiting the area.

​Convenient & Accessible: The location right at the service station makes it ideal for a quick break with good food and amenities right on the doorstep. We had food at Chopstix and The Good breakfast. Both were good value. The single-story layout is a huge plus, as all rooms are on ground level with no stairs to negotiate with luggage.

​Quiet & Clean: The room was spotlessly clean and remarkably peaceful. Considering how close it is to the motorway, we hardly noticed any road noise at all.

​Comfortable Stay: The bed was very comfortable, and we really appreciated being able to open the windows to get some fresh air into the room.

​Overall, it offers outstanding value for money for a restful night's sleep. We would definitely stay again!

Cons:

Liked everything
