Croft Na Coille Bed and Breakfast and Self Catering Cottage

This attractive whitewashed former manse in the Cairngorms National Park has been transformed into a true dining destination with a personality of its own. Start in the elegant bar, with one of the fine selection of Scottish and Japanese whiskies, before heading to the Nordic-style dining room for the main event. A surprise tasting menu fuses Scottish produce, including some from their garden, with Japanese techniques, enhancing the ingredients to brilliant effect. The house-made oat tofu is a prime example, served with a lip-smacking fermented cream sauce with broad beans and chilli.
