Caledonian Hilton

The Caledonian Hilton, or the “Caley” as it has become affectionately known among Edinburgh folk, was and still is the epitome of style and excellence. The large, rose-coloured Permian sandstone façade, quarried in Dumfries, dominates the skyline of the city’s west end. The hotel has not only remained a focal point for more than one hundred years, but a symbol of the very best of Scottish hospitality. The Caley’s pivotal position at the very heart of Edinburgh has always been its greatest asset. Created out of the 19th century railway boom, the five star hotel is looking to the future with confidence and pride in its ability to keep pace with the times. The hotel’s reputation is as justified now as it was when the hotel first opened its doors in 1903

Fortingall Hotel

Fortingall Hotel has been welcoming guests through its doors for over one hundred years. It has, and still is, the heartbeat of the village, where no-one is too busy to say hello. They’re as happy to receive dogs as their owners, in a place where guests rub shoulders with shooters, ghillies and fishermen over a dram in the bar. They’re proud of the welcome they offer to their visitors, whether they are walkers at the end of a long day Munro-bagging, or City guests up for a get-away break of doing nothing but relaxing. At the end of the nineteenth century local landowner Sir Donald Currie commissioned Arts and Crafts architect, James M. MacLaren, to build this Victorian Estate community. Thatched roofs and crow-stepped gables sit side by side in this unique ribbon of whitewashed cottages, with the magnificent Glenlyon House at one end and the church and hotel at the other. All look south over open fields, at the end of which the River Lyon bubbles gently down towards the River Tay at Aberfeldy.

The Inn at Lathones

The Inn at Lathones is a charming 400 year old coaching Inn (the oldest coaching Inn in Scotland), situated seven miles south of the famous golfing town of St Andrews.

The Inn’s award-winning food is inspired by ‘Cooking in Trilogy’. Once, many years ago, there was "Buffet service". Then during the 18th &19th Century came "Russian service" followed fairly quickly after by "English service". In the back end of the 20th Century came "Platted service" and with this came the tasting menu. This broke down in literal terms to be simply: A Plate; A Recipe; A Taste

From this, Damian and Yves Thuries of Le Grand Ecuyer set about creating a new and exciting form of cooking called Trilogy. This allows the gourmet to discover tastes that blend together and excite whilst sampling 3 dishes on one plate at one time. It is Marc’s ambition to make this style of cooking as famous in Scotland as it is in France today.
