Grantshouse railway station was a railway station that served the village of Grantshouse, Berwickshire, Scotland from 1849 to 1969 on the East Coast Main Line.

The station opened around 1849 by the North British Railway. The station was situated north of Reston station and to the south of Cockburnspath station. The station was believed to have closed after a mishap at Grantshouse which involved a D249 locomotive crashing into a building, which was on 8 August 1969. The line has since been repaired and is now a deserted trackbed.
