"My twin bed room was medium sized. It had a small TV, hot water kettle, no mini fridge. But, there is a fridge in the breakfast room that you can place food in. Breakfast is included and it begins at 8:00am, 8:30am on Saturday and Sunday. Both times were too late for me. Cooked eggs, toast, cereals, fruit, coffee, tea. Towels, coffee sugar cream and tea packets for your room are shelf service . They are in the closet on the third floor. No elevator, so you have to carry your suitcase up the stairs. Check in and out was easy and fast."
"We recently stayed for an overnight at the Smiths Hotel to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary, returning to Gretna Green where we were married 35 years ago. We were allocated one of the newly refurbished rooms at the front of the hotel, which was spotlessly clean and modern.
The lounge and bar areas are freshly decorated with plenty of seating, including outdoor seating. We would highly recommend eating at the restaurant as the food was delicious. I enjoyed the Lamb and my husband had the steak, he said it was cooked to perfection. Hats off to the chef and staff as despite a large football function and another larger table at the time we were dining it did not have an impact on the quality of food or the level of service provided by the staff. The staff are a credit to the hotel. The hotel is a few minutes walk from the Blacksmiths shop and visitor centre. The village centre is a short walk away and there is also an outlet village with shops close by. Carlisle is only about a 15min drive away. We would not hesitate to recommend Smiths hotel if you are looking for a hotel in the area."
"Had a 1 night stay with husband and daughter.
Hotel is very central and had a nice friendly atmosphere.
All the staff were exceptional and couldn’t do more for you.
The restaurant is definitely worth a visit as food is outstanding.
Bar area got quite roudy at one point with a stag do, so we’d shed our meal from the bar to the restaurant upstairs.
Later the bar was fine and had a nice selection of drinks.
The room was fine and was quite soundproof considering it’s on the main road.
Breakfast was included in the price and was ok. Could possibly be more continental choices but hot food was nice and poached eggs cooked to perfection. "
"Nice rooms which included an iron and iron board, disappointed that we didn’t have a fridge though. Food and drink was lovely and the staff were friendly and helpful."
"What a beautiful setting and absolute gem of a building. Great staff with fabulous sense of humour. Every window has such lovely views you can’t quite believe you’ve found such a quiet spot. I won’t spoil the secret for other visitors but finding that extra little place in the woods made my visit. Such a special little extra.
The shared spaces are all large, airy and well maintained. I loved the windows, the staircase and the furniture. I appreciate the upkeep of something so old takes a great deal of money to keep in tip top condition, so new carpets must be diverging that happens over time. Our room was a bit tired, but then we didn’t pay much for our stay so I wasn’t disappointed at all. I just worry that if you did pay a lot you would want a refurbished room without scuff marks or broken lampshades. Things happen and wear and tear is normal but just those little things need maintaining to make everyone feel looked after, and aren’t too expensive to replace.
All in all we loved our stay. Stuart was a legend. He handled the burnt toast beautifully. The walks by the river and through the wood were my highlight."
