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.

Cosy apartment set inside a converted church with some beautifully preserved features. The owners clearly put thought into their guests comfort, and take pride in their business. Small details, like the welcome gift basket and finding tea and coffee provisions after a long journey, really made our stay. The surrounding area is fairly quiet, but that's great if you're looking to relax and enjoy some beautiful scenery. We will definitely be visiting again

Loved the apartment and the furniture inside, really nice. The area was ok even if it was a little quite. Owner very helpful about places to visit. Only downside was the WiFi. We were unable to connect when we arrived on phone, iPads and tv. We were assisted and put on another apartments WiFi but still unable to get the tv. We were under the impression it would be sorted on the Monday, but this did not happen. We were asked on the Monday if all was ok and we said still cannot get tv but still nothing was done to rectify this. Luckily we had our laptop to watch Amazon/ prime, but not the same when you had a large tv in the living room. Would stay again.
