The Oak Room is the very attractive dining room. It's formal but not formidable. The walls are entirely oak panelled and the windows nicely dressed with heavy, opulent tartan trimmed curtains. It's all very Scottish and the pictures just add to the plush, trad feel.
Head chef Bill McNicoll, formerly of red-starred Kinloch House, is experienced and well-known in Perthshire. His set dinner menu is £27.50 for 3 courses and allows some flexibility to mix and match.
It has a simple elegance all of its own, perfectly complemented by candle-light in the evening. Here guests can linger over lunch or enjoy a leisurely dinner; and the service is exceptionally good. You need to feel good to enjoy really good food to the full and the carefully and tastefully judged ambience, atmosphere and service in the restaurant will really invoke that true feeling of wellbeing.
The Conservatory Restaurant sits to one side of the main house, a bright and airy place usually open 7 days a week and serving light and full meals; a nice place for a spot of Sunday lunch, adding an al fresco feel to dining. Light lunches can in fact be served on the lawns outside, during the summer... tables and chairs with sturdy green umbrellas sit out awaiting. Just mind the ducks don't pinch your sandwiches.
