Restaurant at Knock Castle Hotel & Spa Description
Nestling in the hills of the Strathearn Valley, the enchanting Knock Castle Hotel and Spa is a haven for those who wish to get away from the bustle of modern living. With uninterrupted views across the beautiful Perthshire countryside, this stunning Victorian mansion was once the baronial home of Scotland's shipping magnate Lady McBrayne.
The Henderson Group took over in December 2007 and the recent multi-million pound refurbishment ensures that all rooms are fully up to date. If you really want to cut a dash you could arrive in style by chartering your own private helicopter from the Henderson's fleet.
In contrast to the period façade, the hotel is relatively contemporary in style with a bright reception area set in warm wood tones. The bedrooms are named after several way marked walks around Crieff. So choose, say, between the Lady Mary, Ben Chonzie or Glenalmond, each with its characteristic design and remarkable views from the window. With eight luxurious bedrooms, the adjacent Castle Lodge is suitable for large groups who seek comfort and privacy.
After a stroll through three-and-a-half acres of wooded grounds, pamper yourself with the latest spa treatments and therapies or settle in the rooftop lounge to take in some astounding views of the picturesque landscape beyond, whilst sipping an apéritif. Indulge your taste buds in some delectable fare from the seasonally changing menu where dishes created using organic fruit and vegetables, and meat, fish and game sourced from suppliers across Scotland.
The dining area is a charming space with dark pink walls and matching tablecloth while the large mirror, art work and ornate windows accentuate the period feel. Look out for special treats such as beetroot and goats' cheese tart with horseradish dressing and seared hand dived scallops with grilled Stornaway black pudding and pea dressing.
A popular main course is the char-grilled fillet of Aberdeen Angus beef with creamy rosemary mash and roasted root vegetables with red wine jus; while others dishes such as oven roasted monkfish served in a bed of spicy Moroccan couscous and wild mushroom charlotte on a salad of herbs vie for your attention.
Sign off with some delectable desserts such as chilled red berry gazpacho with kir royale mousse and green tea brûlée with homemade shortbread. An excellent selection of wines is always there to do credit to the food.
Those who love outdoor pursuits could avail themselves of the concierge service to arrange access to tee off at a golf course, or to the nearby Loch Earn, which is a preferred destination for water sport enthusiasts. Find out far more about the Knock Castle Hotel on their informative Website.

Chris Farrell (25 August 2008)
A warm welcome followed by excellent food and wine combined with superb service and the accompaniment of classical and contemporary tunes played on the grand piano by a very talented young lady, made my first visit to this hotel a refreshing change to the usual fare on offer close by. I will certainly be back.
