- Our Wild Kitchen experience is located on the riverbank of the Tay and enables us to showcase local quality ingredients for our members to cook themselves over charcoals at their table. Pairing the experience with some fantastic cocktails and wines encapsulates everything that is unique about our club.
- The Laird’s Hall offers a truly Scottish experience from start to finish with baronial style feasting and will offer produce from the Glenlyon Estate itself such as game, eggs, fruits and berries the estate services up.
The choice of food outlets will increase again with the opening of the castle, offering a Tavern, fine dining hall, champagne and caviar room, whisky bar, private dining area and Chinese drawing room. Each with their own distinct characteristics and exceptional service.
