"There's an inviting, contemporary feel to this 18th-century Cumbrian inn that's situated so far north, it nearly crosses the Scottish border. If you time your visit right, you'll get a glimpse of a truly spectacular sunset. The adept kitchen team match the wonderful surroundings with ease, eschewing unnecessary flourishes and instead delivering beautiful balance and depth of flavour with just a few ingredients – as evidenced by superb vadouvan-spiced scallops. Extend your visit with a stay in one of the smart bedrooms." - Michelin Inspector

The Pentonbridge Inn is not short of excellent reviews. why, because it is excellent. From the moment you are greeted at reception to the moment you leave the premises it oozes class. The staff, the service and the rooms are exceptionally good, combine that with wonderful food and you cannot fail to be impressed. Our stay was probably the best hotel stopover I can recall in many years. Well done to all the team at Pentonbridge Inn.

We came over to Gretna for a family wedding but decided to come up a day early. As we had an extra night we wanted to enjoy some time together and Pentonbridge Inn was only a short drive away! From entry to exit the staff were super attentive, ensuring we were enjoying the experience at every moment. The tasting menu was incredible! Having done a couple at other Michelin star restaurant, I can confirm some of these dishes were just above and beyond! The savoury custard and fresh peas, just not what you'd expect but absolutely delicious! Really pleasant experience and would highly recommend ✨

Our stay at the Pentonbridge Inn was nothing short of exceptional. From the moment we arrived, the service was warm, welcoming, and genuinely attentive. The inn itself is beautifully appointed—elegant yet cosy, with thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. The highlight, of course, was the Michelin-starred dining experience. Every course was a masterpiece, perfectly balancing creativity and flavour with the finest local ingredients. The wine pairings were expertly chosen and elevated each dish even further. Breakfast the next morning continued to impress, with fresh, high-quality offerings that were absolutely delicious. That granola OMG. We left feeling completely looked after and already planning our next visit. Pentonbridge Inn is a true gem, combining luxury, comfort, and world-class cuisine. Highly recommended!

Fabulous place if you enjoy fine dining. The 8 course tasting menu with wine flight was sensational.

We had the most phenomenal meal at the Pentonbridge Inn for our mini moon. All of the staff were extremely kind and welcoming, and the food was incredible. Thank you for making our first Michelin dining experience one to remember!

Such a beautiful wee inn! From arrival to departure was excellent! The little snacks on your bedside table and the offer of fresh milk for the room were just the start. The staff had in-depth knowledge of the dishes and wine menu so that helped if you didn’t want to have the wine flight! Breakfast was great also with great views over the rolling hills. Thank you to everyone who was on shift last Saturday! Dean

Our dinner was close to perfection - all the staff were kind, professional and knowledgable (made us laugh too, at times) and the cooking was absolutely outstanding. After a few disappointing 'top-end' dining experiences lately, our visit restored our belief in the joy that cooking and food at this level can bring. Just brilliant.

The taster menu is a beautiful and tantalising dining experience. Staff were attentive and informative about the produce and food preparation. A lovely atmosphere. Also, the speed at which the dishes came to the table was perfect. Not rushed, but neither too slow; just right. I didn't stay. Therefore, I can not comment in the rooms.
