Designers on LSD
The Fife Arms combines historic charm with avant-garde decor curated by renowned Swiss art dealers. Its whisky bar features 486 bottles and requires reservations. Pet-friendly rooms are available, and outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate its proximity to the Cairngorms National Park. Be sure to visit the boot room for post-hike clean-up. The atmosphere is lively, but the creative interiors might not appeal to minimalists. Room rates can vary significantly, so book early for the best deals.

Food + Drink On-site surprises
The Fife Arms features two exceptional dining venues. The Clunie Dining Room specializes in wood-fired Scottish cuisine with a contemporary twist, and a great wine list. Elsa’s Bar offers creative cocktails and small plates. The Flying Stag feels like a local pub perfect for casual fare (think elevated pub food), and the Whisky Bar is a must-visit for enthusiasts, boasting nearly 500 curated bottles. Seasonal ingredients take center stage in all menus, with an emphasis on local sourcing and Highland traditions. Don’t miss the decadent afternoon tea served in the Drawing Room.
