Davina Comes To Gretna Green
Posted by Ami Brough - February 11, 2014
There's been a wee bit of excitement and a buzz in the air around the Gretna Green Famous Blacksmith Shop and Smiths Hotel since Saturday!
We can hear you wondering why?
We had a celebrity visiting us.........yep, that's right! The Famous Blacksmiths Shop hosted Davina McCall for a wee 'pit stop' on the first day on her epic Sport Relief journey from Edinburgh to London!
She popped in to say hello to some visit lucky guests who were staying in the Smiths Hotel Bensmoor Suites (a party must have seemed like luxury after cycling here from Edinburgh through rain, sleet, snow and driving wind!!).
We even snagged a wee cheeky photo of Davina with our famous Anvil! After a well-deserved cup of tea and plate of chips, she was off again - still had to get to Keswick before her day was done!
Fabulous! We doubt we would have made it through the gales, rain and hail from Edinburgh last Saturday! Okay fine - let's be honest! We wouldn't have even started if the weather was horrid when we got up!
Good luck to Davina with the rest of her Sports Relief challenge from all of us here at Gretna Green Famous Blacksmiths Shop and Smiths Hotel!
Fancy following Davina as she completes the second half of the challenge? Keep up on Twitter!
