The Old Mill Inn - Carta

during a golftrip to the Scottish Highlands we and another couple stayed 6 nights at The Old Mill Inn and we had 3 dinners at the Hearth restaurant. Each meal was an excellent experience: the dishes were beautifully presented and the influences from different cuisines are used in a refined and harmonious way. Last but not least Sophie and David are exceptional hosts

I went to Hearth, the restaurant at the Old Mill Inn, for dinner this week and I have to say I was very impressed! The setting was lovely, the meal was delicious, and the atmosphere was warm and inviting. The service was excellent, efficient yet personal. We even received some recommendations for places to visit in Moray. When we travel up north again, we will definitely make sure to stop by Hearth again!

My wife and I frequently visit this restaurant in the area, as it has become our favorite spot. The atmosphere is quirky, cozy, and relaxed, with great attention to detail. The food is delicious and creatively presented, and the service is flawless. We always feel warmly welcomed when we arrive. We are looking forward to returning and want to thank David, Sophie, and the team for always making our evening special and memorable. Ver carta

This restaurant blew us away. Everything was simple, elegant, understated and then WHAM! the food came and we were amazed. My husband had the wood pigeon and hake…exquisitely plated and such well balance components for each plate. I almost don’t want to write this as then everyone will know about this amazing and special spot….but they deserve all the recognition and visitors! Definitely get a booking ahead of time or you won’t get into this hidden gem

We have been meaning to leave David and Sophie a review for a while now as we often visit The Hearth as a family. The service is always fantastically welcoming and makes the experience extremely comfortable and enjoyable. Then there is the food... its a wonderful representation of our local larder in the north of Scotland and despite several visits there is always something new and exciting on the menu to choose from. Besides the food there's a vast selection of quality drinks and not to mention some tasty cocktails. From start to finish its a truly exceptional experience and we all look forward to our next delicious meal.

During our family vacation in Scotland, we stumbled upon the Old Mill Inn and decided to dine at Hearth. Let me tell you, it turned out to be an absolute gem! Sophie and David welcomed us with open arms, making us feel right at home. They were incredibly accommodating, even with our requests, and that meant a lot to us. The place had a cozy vibe, and the food was simply top-notch. Every dish, from the fresh bread rolls to the perfectly cooked monkfish, was a delight. And that venison burger with haggis? Oh, it hit the spot. What stood out most was the genuine care Sophie and David showed to all their guests. It wasn't just us; they treated everyone with warmth and kindness. We're definitely...

We stayed three nights, two of them with my niece and her husband, both Londoners with pretty developed experience and taste in matters of travel and food. We all loved the place and the warm welcome and thoughtful attention. Our rooms were nice, the beds very comfortable. The breakfasts are a winner, with three lovely choices, each a great way to start. For us, though, the star was the night we celebrated my wife Jeanne’s 81st birthday with a special dinner. The food was fabulous, with the vegetarian among us beautifully catered to and all of it from starters to dessert top class ... the chefs here are seriously good. The family treated us to a bottle of really good champagne which launched...

We were thrilled to dine at Hearth again on Friday evening and were greeted warmly. We had a tough time deciding on our meal as everything on the menu looked delicious. My husband chose the Trout with trout mousse, potato salad, and pickled cucumber, and he said it was delightful. I opted for the belly pork, which was sweet, juicy, and crispy, served with buttery mash and a delicious redcurrant glaze. For our main courses, we chose two favorites: the Biriyani Arancini with coconut curry sauce and crispy potatoes with salsa, and the Roe and Red Deer with a unique blueberry and bramble sauce with a hint of dark chocolate. We were quite full by this point, but decided to indulge in dessert. The...

Visited with a few friends as part of a dinner club. Lovely setting with a great ambience and welcoming staff. This is a restaurant that is clearly living in the shadow of its AA Rosette and is charging obscene prices for what I would class as average food. Pork Belly was the starter and to say it was unimaginative would be an understatement. A chewy section of pork belly was accompanied with a berry style compote and decorative swirl of mashed potato. If you’re after a crispy piece of pork crackling and a succulent layer of fatty pork meat then you’ll be disappointed. Instead you’ll be welcomed with a chewy section of pork that hadn’t been cooked low and slow, failing to render the fat and... Ver carta
