Courtship Maze

Courtship Maze – Gretna Green

For a sweet and memorable stop in Gretna Green, only 5 minutes away from High Gaitle Caravan Park, the Courtship Maze is a lovely little attraction that celebrates love, partnership and the area’s famous romantic heritage ❤️🌿

Designed in the shape of a heart, this hedge‑style maze offers a fun, winding walk through leafy pathways that lead to a central viewpoint which is the perfect spot for photos. Couples are encouraged to start at different entrances and meet in the middle, adding a playful twist to the experience.

Located close to the historic Blacksmiths Shop and other Gretna Green attractions, the maze beautifully complements the village’s long‑standing reputation as the UK’s premier destination for elopement.

It’s completely free to visit, and many guests choose to buy a ‘lovelock’ to write their initials on before attaching it to the bridge inside the maze or the nearby LOVE wall, a simple but meaningful keepsake of their visit.

Charming, romantic and right at the heart of Gretna Green, the Courtship Maze is a lovely stop for couples, families and anyone who enjoys a bit of fun mixed with local history 💕🌳
