Parks & Nature

Wonderfully peaceful and beautifully maintained, glorious for a good leg-stretch. Particularly lovely in spring with the rhododendrons out.

Off-shoot of the Michelin-starred Kitchin, though more affordable. Cosy dining-room with Scottish accent on produce and food. Rumoured to be slightly slipping from previous excellence. Will check and report back.

Sightseeing

If you are interested in our Royal Family then this is a great visit where Diana and Charles honeymooned. Highly-polished presentation and a peek inside Royal lifestyle. Also a very, very good tea-room (you have to pay the entry fee) where my chef cousin said it was the best thing he'd eaten in two weeks in Scotland.
