There are three Dining Rooms and a Sitting Room with sofas and a big stone open fire. The atmosphere is refined but friendly and relaxed. All is dedicated to the unhurried and unpretentious enjoyment of good food and wine.

The Peat Inn is blessed with easy access to three sources of Scottish produce: game, beef and lamb from the Highlands, Fife has some of the best agricutural land in Britain, and the sea. Geoffrey (photograph, below left) always uses fresh produce, and he and his team produce good Scottish food with echoes of the Scottish/French friendship which dates back to the 15th century, the beginnings of the Auld Alliance.
