Neighbourhood: Graydon Hall

Perched atop a plateau on the edge of the Don Valley just sothwest of the intersection of the DVP and the 401, Graydon Hall is a green neighbourhood of pretty hills and dales. The small community overlooks the Donalda Golf Course and is home to Graydon Hall Manor, the luxurious “Sportsman’s Paradise” envisioned by original owner H.R. Bain, now a banquet and conference centre.
