We received a warm welcome from Alison, who provided a clean, quiet and comfortable twin room (en-suite) for me and my son. Breakfast was delicious and included Scottish additions which I hadn't tried before: Lorne (square sausage) and haggis. I would highly recommend a visit to the Village Inn, and we will definitely return if in the area again.

Good overnight stay

A small b&b outside Gretna Green. Nothing was too much trouble for the owner. Evening meals were not available but this was made very clear before the stay. Room was a good size and spotless. The photograph shown was not taken recently. Breakfast was excellent. A good overnight stay.

Excellent value for money.

Excellent stay thank you. The room was spotless, very comfortable and tremendous value for money. The owner was very friendly. An ideal place to stop off on the way to/from Cairnryan, further north into Scotland or for longer stays to explore the beautiful Borders area.

A Hidden Gem Off the Motorway

We were driving to North Scotland from East Sussex and wanted to break our drive overnight and The Village Inn and Kirtle House B&B was ideally situated to do this. There was ample parking at the rear of the property through a gate. Alison, the proprietor was extremely welcoming and accommodating. The bedroom was thoughtfully set out with accessories, tea and coffee making facilities. The bed linen was clean and the bed very comfortable. Alison recommended the local Pub for an evening meal, which was a short distance away, which was very good. Alison's breakfast menu was amazing which included the full Scottish consisting of lean black pudding, homemade haggis and Lorne sausage. We would certainly recommend this B&B and would definitely stay there again.

Hostess goes the extra mile, made us feel so welcome & booked our table at the local restaurant so we did not miss out. Our room was lovely, slept so well. Breakfast was perfect with lots of choice. We will be returning.

Great place to stay after a long drive - easy access to A74(M) but far enough away to avoid the road noise. Spotless en-suite room with tea coffee & Tunnocks teacake, yum. Wake-up to a relaxing view of green pastures and dairy herd. Welcoming host and superb Scottish breakfast. Highly recommended.
