Dining at Skibo Castle

Passion on a Plate

The chefs at Skibo are passionate about food, and it shows through on the plate. Executive Chef Craig Rowland, recently invested as a Fellow of the prestigious Royal Academy of Culinary Arts, oversees a team of talented professionals committed to offering members world-class cuisine.

Breakfast

Start your day with a selection of homemade granola, fresh fruit salad, locally smoked salmon or croissants baked fresh that morning by the Skibo pâtissier. Perhaps you will top your traditional porridge with the preserves made from soft fruits grown in the castle gardens, or with a spoonful of honey gathered from the hives right here on the estate. For those who prefer a heartier start to the day, a classic 'full cooked' Scottish breakfast is available to set you up for adventures ahead.

Lunch

Lunch is served in the contemporary Clubhouse which, with its floor to ceiling windows offering outstanding views of the Dornoch Firth, provides a relaxed, inviting space to socialise.

With a selection of exquisite fare on offer – everything from salads and seafood to wood-fired pizzas and beer-battered fish and chips – it’s difficult to remember to leave room for dessert!

Afternoon Tea

Members can enjoy a traditional afternoon tea in the castle, served daily from 4pm to 6pm. Choose from a selection of loose leaf teas and tuck into finger sandwiches, mini macarons, freshly baked scones with clotted cream and raspberry jam, and other tempting sweet treats.

Evening Options

Depending on the season and their preference, members can enjoy an informal brasserie-style meal at the Clubhouse, private dining room in the castle, home delivery service to their lodge, or the famous hosted dinner.

All Inclusive

The daily all-inclusive rate includes all food and all drinks including teas, coffees, Champagne, wines and spirits by the glass, meaning that there is nothing to sign for while you are here. Members can simply sit back, relax and enjoy all that Skibo has to offer.
