When it comes to restaurants, golf or accommodation in Perthshire, it's hard to see past Gleneagles for quality, style and content.

The 79-year-old hotel, which has been described as 'a Riviera in the Highlands' and the 'eighth wonder of the world', is a common haunt for the rich and famous as well as hosting top golf tournaments. So it's not hard to see why Gleneagles cuisine is also top-of-the-range.

In fact, food at Gleneagles isn't even confined to one restaurant - there's four restaurants within the confines of the vast hotel.

The Club restaurant @ Gleneagles And what's more, you don't have to be a guest at the hotel to enjoy a meal at Gleneagles; making Gleneagles the perfect option for a celebratory meal or special occasion.

The Strathearn Restaurant is famed for its excellent views across the Gleneagles estate and it has won two rosettes for its fabulous Scottish food and attentive service.

The food in the Strathearn is from a classical era with main courses ranging from Orkney Gold fillet of beef Rossini to Gressingham duck with caramelised apples in a poivre vert sauce.

The second restaurant is run by Scottish Chef of the Year Andrew Fairlie and is a quaint and intimate space where Andrew creates his signature dishes.

The Strathearn Restaurant Andrew's menu is predominantly French with a Scottish twist, due to the bulk of his chef training taking place in the South of France.

But if you are to visit Andrew Fairlie's restaurant, it'd be wise to try his splendid Smoked Lobster which is cooked over old whisky barrels.

Famed for its vantage point over the King's and Queen's golf courses, the Dormy restaurant has a laid-back and informal style where the grill dishes are delightful.

Lastly The Club restaurant is a trendy addition to Gleneagles' assortment of eateries which boasts designer pizzas, steak grills and Mediterranean-influenced pastas.
