Dining
Dining with us is something to savour and enjoy. Our Loch-Smith Restaurant offers stunning views over Loch Awe.
Our A la Carte Dinner menú is available to enjoy in the Loch-Smith Restaurant or in the Orangery (perfect if your pooch is joining you)
During the day we offer Soup and Toasted Sandwiches in addition to the luxury treat of Afternoon Tea or a Simple Cream Tea.
Sunday we offer our very popular Sunday Roast Sharing Platters, the ideal way to enjoy a Traditional Roast.
We look forward to offering you our hospitality.
