Description
Nestling in the foothills of Ben Nevis in over 500 acres of grounds, this majestic castle sits amidst some of Scotland's finest scenery. Built in 1863, it remained a private residence for over 100 years before being converted into a luxury hotel. Lavishly appointed in classic country-house style, it makes a truly impressive setting for fine dining - aperitifs are taken in the sumptuous lounge or on the terrace on warm sunny days, while dinner is an experience to savour in any of the three dining rooms, each with elaborate period furniture and stunning mountain views. Genuine comfort and luxury abound, while service is highly professional but with a relaxed and friendly note. The kitchen's accomplished modern approach - underpinned by a classical theme - suits the surroundings and makes fine use of the abundant Highland larder, as well as produce from the estate's walled garden, on its repertoire of daily-changing five-course dinner and tasting menus. Expect high-level technical skill and clear flavours in dishes like grilled tranche of turbot with cauliflower salad, horseradish mousseline and yogurt beignets, or Scottish blue lobster with lemon and honey dressing, navet and truffle, followed by seared fingers of John Dory with soured cabbage and chorizo gnocchi, or crispy fillet of sea bass with Jerusalem artichoke ravioli and fish velouté. There's a notable wine list with an extensive range of half-bottles to enjoy, but remember your jacket and tie gentlemen, it's the required dress code here.
