Harden's survey result
Summary
“A remarkable experience” in a 13th-century castle overlooking the Atlantic from the Ardnamurchan Peninsula – this remote and “romantic” venue offers a well-rated five-course or eight-course menu from chef-patron, Colin Nicholson, which provided one diner’s best meal of the year.
Summary
On the Ardnamurchan Peninsula, this “stunning, remote restaurant with rooms is set in a 13th century castle overlooking the Atlantic” (complete with battlements); restored to its former glory in 2016, it reopened in 2021. You could be forgiven for anticipating anticlimactic results in the dining room, but (on admittedly thin feedback) there is nothing but praise for the “warm service and great food”.
For 33 years we've been curating reviews of the UK's most notable restaurant. In a typical year, diners submit over 50,000 reviews to create the most authoritative restaurant guide in the UK. Each year, the guide is re-written from scratch based on this survey (although for the 2021 edition, reviews are little changed from 2020 as no survey could run for that year).
