My husband and I enjoyed an overnight stay at Greywalls in January 2012. The hotel was lovely, the staff were pleasant and attentive, and the food was excellent.

We had a very nice room, which was very traditional and in keeping with the rest of the house, with a lovely view over the adjacent golf course. It was furnished with a desk / dressing table, with 2 armchairs and a fireplace, in addition to a large, very comfy, bed. A hospitality tray was provided on request.

A slight drawback was the shortage of power points. It was impossible to use a hairdryer and have access to a mirror at the dressing table at the same time. However, only staying for one night it was not too much of a problem, and it certainly did not detract from our enjoyment of the comfort of the room.

We had an afternoon snack in the Library on arrival, and dinner and breakfast in the main restaurant. Dinner was particularly lovely, and the wine list very reasonably priced. The full Scottish breakfast was also a winner, with superb, beautifully cooked ingredients and a perfectly sized serving after over-indulging the previous evening.

Overall, a very successful visit, the first but definitely not the last.

We have just had one of the best weekends ever at the Greywalls Hotel, the staff are extremely attentive and helpful the hotel is comfortable and you feel totally relaxed. The highlight of the weekend was the food, the meal was first class. Thank you we will be back again.

My husband and I enjoyed a wonderful birthday celebration meal and as always we were enveloped in the unique warmth of this special place. A roaring fire, a comfy sofa and the quiet attention from staff, who made sure that we had everything that we needed, was much appreciated. In particular a very discreet response to special dietary needs, meant that my husband enjoyed every delicious morsel with no need to worry! Great choice of food and wine and definitely something for everyone, with value and quality in both the set menu (offering amazing prices), or A la Carte. Emphasis on fresh local produce much in evidence and a passion fruit souffle to die for!
Service with a smile and those extra little touches mean we will be returning very soon!

Greywalls has been on our "to do" list for ages. An Itison deal, however, meant that it didn't seem quite so decadent to spend a night at a hotel only a short drive from home. The main aim had been to see the house and gardens, and we were really lucky that the weather was bright and sunny when we arrived.

Everything about our short stay, though, was just great. The service was friendly and relaxed, not stuffy. The room, overlooking the gardens, was lovely and had everything you could want. We ate in Chez Roux and the whole experience was a delight - plate of olives, veg crisps etc as we had our drinks in the library first; not one but two amuse bouches; nice touches such as "Which fruit would you like in your glass of tap water?"; an astonishingly reasonably-priced "Daily menu" - only £28 for three course; beautifully hand-made sweets with coffee.

The building is extremely interesting and there are loads of public spaces in which to relax. The Gertrude Jekyll gardens were a delight as well.

The only negative aspect of our trip was that we were home again in about half an hour!
