Bidrage med feedbackLucky to find that dinner was available on one of the nights. The meal was excellent. Extremely well cooked, presented and served. Don't miss the opportunity to eat there if you can. Elaine is a great cook/chef.
We relaxed in the holiday bubble of Tigh na Sgiath. But where everyone has become used to COVID bubbles this one was different. We were enclosed within an authentic ambience that energised the spirit and stilled the soul under the unobtrusive, sensitive service from Iain with Elaine creatively crafting culinary delights behind the scenes. Ballindaloch was our resting place that resonated Victorian valour and for a few days time stood still. Sunshine, a world class environment where flora and fauna seemed at one allowed us to savour every moment. We appreciate our seamless experience that glided effortlessly like an osprey on the wing was the product of skilful hospitality and hard work but that was never evident! Bubble? Bubbles! Really delighted to raise a glass of fizz and toast our terrific time many thanks Iain and Elaine.
We enjoyed a gorgeous afternoon tea on the hotel's grounds. The host was welcoming and made us feel right at home. A delicious array of sandwiches was followed by scones and a variety of delicate cakes, all elegantly presented on bone china. Our favorite was the little ginger cakes, but everything was delightful. Next time, we might opt for the Prosecco option!
The restaurant is located within the hotel and is personally managed by the owners. Iain, who runs the front of house, made us feel welcome and treated us like valued guests. We dined at the restaurant for both dinner and breakfast. The dinner consisted of 3 courses with coffee, priced at £68. We also ordered two large glasses of red wine for an additional £12. My husband enjoyed a delicious soup, made with butternut squash and chilli topped with coconut cream. Although it wasn't my initial choice, we swapped halfway through and I found it to be quite tasty. I opted for a mini seafood platter, which included prawns in Marie Rose sauce wrapped in smoked salmon, rollmop herring, and smoked mackerel served with a side salad. For the main course, we both selected the pork fillet in a creamy sauce served on a bed of white pudding. The vegetables were slightly overcooked, but that's a matter of personal preference. The desserts were exceptional, with my husband choosing an apple and cinnamon strudel with ice cream, and myself indulging in mini profiteroles filled with chantilly cream and Baileys chocolate cream. The coffee was served with fudge and Turkish delight. For breakfast, we both had orange juice and French toast with bacon and maple syrup. The French toast was incredibly light and delicious. Additionally, there was toast and marmalade on the side, along with a silver pot full of tea served in china cups. The restaurant exuded an impressive country house style, with fresh flowers adorning the drawing room and dining area. The entire establishment was wonderfully clean and well-maintained.
Dinner is served for people staying at the hotel and their guests. A lovely choice of dishes and special diets are catered for with advance warning. They couldn’t have been more helpful with my husband’s requirements. Drinks were served by the roaring fire in the hall. The food was delicious. Would highly recommend.
