Fonab Castle Hotel & Spa
“Marvellous Scottish cooking on an adventurous tasting menu” - AA Inspector
PITLOCHRY, PERTH & KINROSS
Our Inspector's view
Located on the edge of Loch Faskally, Fonab Castle is home to the fine dining Sandemans Restaurant. The castle is late Victorian, and was built for a member of the Sandeman port-shipping family. The seven-course taster menu offers an exciting programme of cutting-edge dishes, with appetisers and a pre-dessert filling in the gaps between main items. So, you could find the menu offering crab rillette with pickled cucumber and gazpacho, confit salmon with poached oyster, asparagus and caviar, or breast of Peking duck with confit leg with potato galette in a dashi stock. Unsurprisingly, considering the Sandeman connection, the wine list is excellent.
