Hollytree Seafood Restaurant

The Hotel is renowned for being a special occassion restaurant and supplies some of the best seafood and grills in Scotland. Fresh languastine is landed on the Hotel's own pier daily and lots of other shelfish and seafood is freshly delivered each day by local suppliers. Meats are supplied by local suppliers who are members of the Scottish Beef Club and is always delivered fresh and using only the very best cuts such as fillet and ribeye Scottish beef. We have a Charcoal grill and this is used to ensure that meats and fishes are superbly prepared resulting in a truly exceptional dining experience.

This is our normal menu but obviously occasionally we need to make alterations.
Hotel residents enjoying Dinner, Bed and Breakfast terms are entitled to any first course, any one second course, and either a dessert or cheese, then coffee and petit fours.

As well as the Seafood Restaurant, bar food is served all day in the Captains lounge bar.
