This was my first time at the Gables and found it to be a decant place to stop over on route to NC500. The staff made every effort to make my stay pleasurable and found the food that was on offer to be tasty but limited due to Mothers day set menu which took away my option I wanted. There was a fair on across the road so was a little noisy at times but got a decant nights sleep. I think the staff make this place a warm friendly place to come and would come again.

Just an observation but think a couple of extra staff at busy times would speed the process up as the one lad who served my meal was also the bartender and was ran off his feet but did brilliant job. Deserves a pay rise lol

I booked a family room in the app due to no single being available. However, when I arrived, my room was ready, and when I entered, my jaw dropped. Immediately, I saw a four-poster bed. Upon entering the bathroom, I was pleasantly greeted with a jacuzzi bath and quite a large shower cubicle, the bed itself was comfortable, the tv (in my opinion) was to small but worked fine, there was a must smell when I entered the room but that soon dissipated. I thought I had been given a bag of sweets but it was the tea and coffee in a sweet bag, the staff were very helpful as I was in the area to photograph a wedding at the blacksmiths and the receptionist gave me a fob to open the door when I returned as the exterior doors are locked at 10pm until 7am.

The musty smell wasn't unbearable but was noticeable, and the tv was too small.

The staff went above and beyond, couldn't have been taken care of more, really went out if their way, advice on where to eat , gin recommendations, gave us a bigger area to prepare for our wedding we were attending, gave as a beautiful breakfast so kind and helpful. Very clean and fresh room was a great size, bathroom spotless and had everything we needed shower was amazing. Anything else we needed we just asked and it was delivered thankyou so much for having us , highly recommend for a family of 5

One bed(mattress) wasn't to comfy(but I am heavy) but the other 4 were great 👍

A great rest place for our LEJOG trip. Goos was excellent both at evening and at breakfast. Our room was a shock as it had a four poster bed and a jacuzzi bath. Most unexpected. Staff were very helpful and an excellent recovery place for us before returning home. Easy to walk to the Caledonian shopping area and to the more traditional blacksmiths shop at Gretna Green. Helpful with storing husbands expensive bike and Gluten free was no problem. The waitress in the evening was well on the board knowing not only what was GF but how options could be adapted. Loved our stay and the lovely weather was a bonus!

One of the younger waitresses on the Sunday breakfast forgot part of our order then got it wrong when reminded. She was the only staff member we had who was not positive or welcoming. We excused it as we have no idea of her circumstances but do expect faults to be admitted!

The property was a large sprawling house/ hotel . It was old but very well kept. Because I had a dog with me I was on the ground floor yeah !! & the staff even gave me a short cut to the outside where I had parked my car so it was so convenient. ( traveling with Dog think Baby) lots of luggage. The room was large and the en-suite was modern . Dog Bowls provided. . Set in large grounds so able to exercise the dog easily . Restaurant was good .

Font of house in restaurant in the evening was the Barman / Waiter. Who was more interested in my dog and forgot to order my food . Waited over an hour . When I asked and he made some excuse about the order not going through on the computer. I was the only one I at 5.30 pm . By the time I had finished a few other people had arrived ………they got their food promptly. …..

Jane the receptionist was brilliant. Due to staff shortages she had to book everyone in, tend to the bar and take orders for dinner plus serve them when ready. She did all that without a grumble and had a smile and joke for everyone. What a trooper, well done Jane

Not much, The Gables is a very comfortable family hotel, informal, and easy to relax in. Rooms were spacious for us and warm. The only issue we had was the bathroom was a bit tired, and water did run out when we showered, but it didn't spoil our stay

The staff were fantastic. The bed linens & towels were immaculate. Bathroom newly refurbished. Breakfast excellent. Large room & bathroom. Lots of parking for guests. Hotel rooms being refurbished.

Bedroom carpet badly stained. Skirting boards marked. Decor needs attention. Crash fire door was ajar and wouldn't close, so security issue. No blind on the window in the shower, so early morning shower needing the light on didn't feel as comfortable as it could have...although obscure glass was provided & it was a nice bathroom.

Loved the friendly welcome and the overall appearance of the hotel inside and out. Great to be on the ground floor and room was lovely for us and our dog floyd spotlessly clean, as was everywhere inside and out . All the staff were so cheerful and helpful and the girl on reception even came out to take photos of us ( sorry i didnt get the name). We had a lot of laughs with her. the breakfast was one of the best we've had. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff.

Nothing. Everthing was perfect

I stayed for a wedding so I went for this hotel as it was fairly close to the venue. Lovely staff from reception to bar. Check in was easy and directions to the room were made very clear. Didn't get her name but the very helpful receptionist booked us in for tea time during check in as well and the food was good.

Probably nip picking a bit but the water pressure on the shower was not great, water basically just fell out the shower head. Room was a little warm, a desk fan would be beneficial

The Gables was a very friendly, family feeling hotel. Rooms are good - a touch on the small for a large family with suitcase but we made it work. Showers were hot & well ventilated. Staff always greeted us with a smile (even during the fire drill). While I didn't personally eat there, my Inlaws said the breakfast was good. Alternatively there is a lovely pub down the road & a large shopping complex for food. Best of all we could park our van safely as need. Come & go as we discovered the local sights.
