Rigg is a quiet little village a stones throw away from the world famous Gretna Green. This ideal location is only minutes from the main A75 and M6, perfect for exploring the area. Gretna Green, one of the world’s most popular wedding destinations due to its romantic wedding traditions dating back to the 1700s, is well worth a visit. It is possibly the most romantic village in the UK and has become synonymous with romance and runaway couples. Marriage ceremonies are still performed over a blacksmith’s anvil and Gretna Green attracts thousands of couples from all around the world to be married each year. It is easy to overlook that there is more to this area than weddings. Ideally placed to not only explore Dumfries and Galloway, it is also within easy reach of the Scottish Borders, Hadrian’s Wall, the fells of the Lake District National Park and much more. During your stay at 5 Church Square you can also enjoy a day shopping at Gretna Green Outlet Village, and a must is a trip to the nearby Devil’s Porridge Museum, where you can learn the story of how this area flourished into a hub of wartime activity. The owner will also provide other information about the local area in the form of leaflets at the property. Shop, pub and restaurant 1½ miles.
