A Storytelling Dining Experience
Step inside The Aithir Dining Room – named for the Gaelic word meaning ‘air’ or ‘sky’ – and discover a space shaped by atmosphere, elegance, and quiet wonder. One side evokes the stillness of ancient forest, the other reflects the mystery of the sea. Together, they create a setting unlike any other – the perfect place to slow down, connect, and savour.
Each evening, we offer a curated multi-course menu that showcases the best of local produce, prepared fresh daily by our chefs. From the first bite to the final course, every detail is designed to celebrate the flavours and stories of the Highlands.
