British Horse Society & Leicestershire and Rutland Bridleways Association, August 2009
"Just a quick note to say a heartfelt thanks to the Greyhound 'family' for taking such good care of the Shine Television crew during our time filming at Stanford Hall.

Waspe Family - 10th August 2008
"I have finally found a safe haven to eat out where my severe gluten intolerance is not only recognised and understood but blissfully catered for.
So many places do not even have a clue as to the meaning of the term Coeliac, I have no hesitation in recommending that you give The Greyhound a try.
At this charming venue where the food is always excellent and the menu varied, the staff are absolutely lovely and nothing is too much trouble, I cannot speak too highly of The Greyhound Coaching Inn."

Conferences and Meetings
back to top"Dear Charlotte
When looking for a venue to host Design Team Meetings for the new Waitrose we came across the Greyhound, and what a great find it was too.
The facilities were exactly what we were looking for and the hospitality and service were superb.
The Greyhound became the base for the site team and you could not have been more flexible adapting to our ever changing room bookings and requirements. Thank you ever so much for your hospitality and understanding as well as local knowledge.
Kind regards”

It's always good to know when I plan for our Cabinet meetings I have the assurance that we are in good hands! The function rooms are ideal for our purpose and we are always well looked after. The meals and buffets are always superb, nothing is too much trouble.
It is the attention to detail which makes all the difference and I very much value the good working relationship which has developed between us over the years."

Alex Pyper,
Co Organiser for Round Leicestershire Ride , August 2009
"PSC have worked with the Greyhound for the last two years. In that time the Hotel has been forward thinking about fire safety and recently passed a fire inspection. It is obvious the Greyhound takes guest safety seriously.
PSC have used the greyhound for business meetings and find the atmosphere and décor suitable for our needs, our business colleagues who have stayed at the Hotel always say how pleasant their stay has been.
Personally we have eaten in both the main Restaurant and the Italian Bistro - the food has always been fantastic and service excellent. I would recommend it to friends and family. For a family-run hotel you get top class service and a warm welcome."
Paul Coughlan
PSC, September 2007
