Wonderful staff and breakfast. The bar/dining area was cozy and great to meet/greet other travelers! Kudos to Stan, the Missus, and Darren. Hopefully the Cross Keys Hotel in Canonbie will achieve National Trust-worthy potential.
A better location right on the Borders, in Liddesdale, I cannot imagine (Hermitage Castle does not have adequate accommodations). ;) I woke up the first morning there with a Borders ballad tune playing in my head (I am NOT making this up). And the history of the place - no comparison - going back to the 1600's, when it was an inn and carriage house on the Edinburgh - Carlisle road. Living history - who were the historical personages that overnighted here?

This family-run hotel in the center of Gretna offers a warm welcome in homey surroundings. It is near to Gretna Register Office, Anvil Hall and the famous blacksmith's shop.

Room was lovely and clean and very warm bed was comfy apart from the pillows thin and uncomfortable.
Located just 10 miles north of Gretna and well located in a scenic area of south-west Scotland, Kirkconnel Hall is a magnificent 15th century manor set in extensive gardens and grounds.

A lovely area which provides some lovely walks of varying lengths (downloadable from the Langholm Walks website) and some interesting history. It is a quiet and peaceful and can be used as a base to visit attractions further afield.

At the junction of many roads so easy to go off exploring in different directions. Some beautiful parkland with bridges over the river - and open public toilets! Helpful tourist office with lots of leaflets. Would recommend the prehistoric trail of Eskdale but you may need boots and a bit of energy to get up the steep hills to the forts. People friendly and a useful bakery and large co-op. Lots of buses stopping so may be suitable for a visit by public transport.

The castle & racecourse by the river were lovely, I though areas were a little run-down, but when exploring the town with dogs, you would find those areas. The river walk was lovely, & the town itself was wonderful. We tried to eat in the Pub in town, the barman said we could let the dogs off the leads in the back, but then a young woman told us that we couldn't, this put us off staying for something to eat, which was a shame as the Vegetarian menu looked wonderful.

Langholm is a beautiful town soaked in history.
Langholm is a beautiful town soaked in history. The lovely river Esk runs right through the town. There are several lovely walks in the area, my favourite is round the Duchess's Bridge. There are a few places to eat all very reasonably priced. We had a lovely meal in the Douglas Hotel, the food was excellent, just a small point I felt that the waitresses who served could have been a bit more friendly. I will definately return to Langholm but perhaps choose other accommodation.

What a lovely little town.
What a lovely little town. Friendly locals and lots to see and do. Douglas Hotel had a lovely restaurant and the food was superb. The bar area was friendly and vibrant. Wish I had been able to have a little look in the lovely shops I saw but as it was the weekend I missed opening hours.
Very welcoming, friendly staff with high quality - mainly traditional - food and a well-stocked bar . The hotel is in an excellent location to explore Langholm and the surrounding area but is also very popular with locals - a very good sign in itself. The atmosphere in the hotel is very relaxing and we were happy to spend some time just chilling with a coffee and newspapers.
We had a pleasant weekend stay. It's a lovely cabin, decent sized rooms, spacious and very cosy and supplied with everything you could possibly need. There wasn't much in Langholm itself for us, but it's just a stones throw away from Gretna gateway and we took a drive to the lake district which was about an hr and half.
Location was very good on main street of Langholm close to a few bars and restaurants. We received a very friendly welcome which was the same during our stay from all the staff. We were provided with a safe location to store our bikes up the back passage of the hotel. Bar was lively with locals.
Room is amazing and the land lady she is an absolute star. Very helpful. Super place and great breakfast to prepare you for a long walk. The room is super clean and bigger than the norms with a fantastic shower and fluffy towels; 5 star hotel. Also the bike parking at the back helps a lot.
Breakfast was absolutely fab. good choice and the children were well catered for. Host was really helpful and approachable and have no hesitation in recommending this hotel. We had the family room with a sofa bed. I can't believe how comfy the sofabed was
The location was okay. Plenty of walks in and around Langholm. The lodge was a dream really clean, comfortable and cosy. Would love to stay again! Hopefully next year. I would recommend!!
The staff were wonderful and so welcoming. Lovely little hotel set in the perfect location for exploring. The room had everything we needed and very comfortable beds.
