Gretna Green is a village in the south of Scotland famous for runaway weddings. It is in Dumfries and Galloway, near the mouth of the River Esk and was historically the first village in Scotland, following the old coaching route from London to Edinburgh. Today Gretna Green is one of the world's most popular wedding destinations, hosting over 5,000 weddings each year and one of every six Scottish weddings.
Gretna GreenMark and Lesley guided us around some fascinating sites within the region, some of which we did not know were there - even as locals! The day was informative, relaxed and a great way to see around the wonderful, beautiful part of the world that we live in.

What better way to spend your Monday morning than walking the Solway coastline in the Winter sunshine.
We were invited along to a guided walk from Rockcliffe to Rough Island and were guided by James, a friendly and knowledgeable NTS Ranger.
The weather was just perfect as we walked to Rough Island and we were fascinated to hear the conservation work that NTS are carrying out on the Island and along the Solway Riviera.
James was a fantastic Guide and we would highly recommend others to join one of the many guided walks that NTS have organised over the next few weeks.
