This Victorian-themed house is a gorgeous spot to stay and eat. The rooms are charming, but lots of people come just for the food offerings. A family business through and through, from front desk to head chef, and more.

Local suppliers include McAtamney’s Butchers, Ewing’s Seafoods, Farmview Dairies and First for Fruit. They have their own Pedigree Aberdeen Angus herd beef when available, their own eggs, soda and wheaten breads and baked goods as well as produce from their own garden. You can even purchase items on their online shop for click-and-collect!

The afternoon teas are a cut above. Elsewhere, think Beef Arancini, Celeriac Remoulade and Tomato Dressing, followed by Oven Baked Cod in a Prawn Fennel Cream Sauce with Wilted Spinach and Sugar Snap Peas, and then maybe a Raspberry and White Chocolate Crème Brulee with a Shortbread Biscuit for dessert. You can have a tipple from the wine list. We like!
