It is situated in a prime location close to Annan Railway Station and the High Street and it retains many of its original features including stained glass windows and mosaic flooring. It is located in the Royal Burgh of Annan; an ideal location for exploring this scenic area of Scotland as well as the Lake District and Hadrian’s Wall. Gretna Green is situated 9 miles away and Annan is on the Sustrans National Cycle Route; Rowanbank therefore attracts regular wedding trade and cyclists.
