Hugh Grant has paid a visit to a stunning Ayrshire hilltop restaurant.
The Love Actually star and British film legend was spotted in the Highgrove House Hotel which towers above Troon on Dundonald Hill.
Staff at the Costley venue found serving the icon an "absolute pleasure" as they posed for pictures with the Notting Hill and Four Weddings and a Funeral movie icon.
The Highgrove House Hotel announced their VIP guest on Facebook as they asked customers what their favourite Hugh Grant film was.
A post from the plush diner read: "We had the absolute pleasure of having Hugh Grant as one of our guests last night.
"What is your favourite film that he has been in?"
One customer commented: "I wish he was still Prime Minister," in reference to hit the 2003 Rom-Com Love Actually in which Grant played the Prime Minister who falls in love with his tea-lady Natalie, played by Martine McCutcheon.
Another joked that mega-star Grant was, "just another punter."
Grant would have been able to take in the breathtaking views that the Highgrove boasts with the venue in the perfect spot overlooking Troon and the Firth of Clyde over to Arran.
Grant is understood to be filming HBO series The Regime with Kate Winslet this week.
The drama, which also stars Andrea Riseborough, will be set in the modern day and revolves around an autocratic leader of a fictional eastern European country and her follower, held together by a strange and complex bond.
