Food Scene

A very special restaurant. A beautiful experience for special occasions of just a treat for no reason at all... Foraged and local meat and fish with exceptional attention to detail and a fantastic view of the old castle Lachlan.

The original Loch Fyne restaurant, now independent of the chain it spawned, with fresh seafood and a decent atmosphere. Take away the the "brandon roast" smoked on-site from the deli.

Our favourite local run. Quite a climb from the car-park, but worth it for the views on a clear day, and still fun to bound over the rocks in the drizzle and mist. Watch out for rock fissures!
