The house
Marine & LawnEdwardian country house
The estate runs like an Edwardian family home, where daily life centers on the walled gardens, library fires, and neighboring links.

What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Greywalls, a stunning Arts and Crafts–style house built in 1901 by the architect Edwin Lutyens.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Muirfield links borders the grounds, home to the Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers. The sandy beaches of Gullane Bay sit minutes away.
The rooms
Bedrooms across the main house and gate lodges keep classic styling, looking out over the walled gardens or neighboring fairways.
At the table
Chez Roux serves French cooking overlooking the Muirfield links, and the Whisky Room pours regional single malts by the fire.
How it began
Politician Alfred Lyttelton commissioned the house in 1901 as a golf box, placed just a mashie niblick shot from Muirfield's eighteenth green.

The eight vibes

Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.

Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
