Greywalls

Greywalls is a refined Edwardian country house beside Muirfield, offering elegant rooms, fine dining at Chez Roux, and timeless charm for golfers and guests seeking understated Scottish luxury.

Greywalls is a timeless Edwardian country house perched beside the 10th tee at Muirfield Golf Club—one of the most exclusive and revered addresses in world golf. Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens in 1901, the house exudes quiet sophistication, with elegant drawing rooms, panelled libraries, and views stretching across the Firth of Forth. The hotel features 23 individually styled bedrooms, traditional lounges, walled gardens, and a fine-dining restaurant under the guidance of Albert Roux’s legacy—Chez Roux. Greywalls is not about modern flash but about atmosphere, refinement, and discretion. It’s a place where history is felt in every room, where service is subtle and deeply personal. Whether you’re teeing off at Muirfield, relaxing with a book and a dram, or enjoying a multi-course tasting menu overlooking the sea, Greywalls offers one of the most iconic and understated luxury stays in Scotland.
