A great partnership
Another stunning weekend at Loch Ness - May bank holiday, yourselves and the Loch Ness Clansman Hotel...what a great partnership. GOOD WEATHER, GOOD COMPANY & GOOD FOOD.

We were really busy throughout the holiday weekend with guests from all over the world out to enjoy themselves. After a day touring, sailing, hiking and biking around - what you need is a relaxing drink and a good meal.
Here at the Clansman Hotel our head chef David West, assisted by Mark MacMillan and team put on a cornucopia of edible delights all sourced locally with a Scottish flavour and an international fusion style.

Our meat comes from Stuart Grant in Grantown on Spey, our fish from Andy Race inMalaig, our Salmon from Letterfinlay and our fruit and veg from Williamsons in Inverness.

Everything else comes from our main supplier to all our outlets - Fife Creamery in Kirkaldy are the No.1 operators for 'Chilled Food' in Scotland. They have excellent representatives all over the country and our own - Charlie Sinclair is not only our business contact but has become a personal friend to the company.
If we have trouble sourcing something, Charlie is our Mr Fix-it and constantly keeps us up to date with the latest lines on offer to the hotel and catering industry.

Our wonderful Scottish cheeses from the Connage Organic Highland Dairy come to us via Fife Creamery - a lovely way to finish off a meal together with a glass of our Taylor's late bottled vintage port.

As you know, we own Cobbs Bakery - the premier supplier of home-made cakes in Scotland. These also can be sourced through Fife Creamery as they distribute these wonderful treats throughout the whole of Scotland.
Finally - a great partnership, a great team...send us your shopping list and we will oblige.
See you soon, Willie Cameron.
