'Scotland is the world capital of fish for breakfast. During 10 days in Scotland I ate smoked haddock topped with an orange-yoked poached egg; scrambled eggs and smoked salmon; proper Scottish kippers on the bone, with plenty of melted butter and a fat pink fillet of trout, masterly cooked by Elaine Murdoch, mother of five and hostess of Lochwood Farm Steading - the farmhouse bed-and-breakfast where we stayed one night.

Once upon a time, they served fish like that on the luxury transcontinental trains in the United states. No kidding.'

Raymond Apple, restaurant critic for The New York Times

This is served each day, in either our ‘Pine’ or ‘Mahogany’ Dining Room between 8.00 a.m. and 9.00 a.m. - for an extra touch of Romance (!), Breakfast can be served by candlelight in the ‘Mahogany’ Dining Room.
