Joan Collins calls it "fabulous" and it has been lauded by Time Out, Fodor's, the AA and more. The opulent Prestonfield House is simply one of Edinburgh and the UK's finest destinations for fine dining, afternoon teas and hotelaccommodation.
Friends of mine recently arranged a celebration tea there and were impressed by the ambience and lavish levels of service. They sampled the 'Tea House' , set in a formal rose garden within the grounds. Privacy was theirs as they indulged in a heady selection of teas, coffees, sandwiches and dainty cakes. Plus, of course, a sparkling glass of champagne.
Prestonfield offers a fine selection of eating options. Rhubarb is the eccentrically named fine dining venue set in two over the top Regency rooms. It is the latest venture of James Thompson whose 'The Witchery' with it's rather Gothic setting close to the Castle and romantic candlelit tables, is of course an established Edinburgh dining legend. Expect to sample the finest Scottish ingredients, such as succulent Angus Lamb.
For added indulgence private dining is available, in Rhubarb itself and three other fabulous Prestongrange Rooms. Ensconce yourselves in a richly decorated world of superior service and exquisite dishes and flavours. Whatever your choice Prestongrange offers superlative service and an escape into a dreamily hedonistic array of dishes and flavours.
