Dakota’s signature impeccable service and stylish interior sets the tone for an unforgettable dining experience at one of the best restaurants in Glasgow. Famous for our steaks, we source our prime cuts from naturally-reared Scotch cattle, before we lightly season and grill to perfection over hot coals. Contemporary twists on seafood classics keeps your tongue tingling, including our famed aromatic monkfish curry. The interior design in our signature suite was absolutely divine. We loved it and we will definitely use it as inspiration for our next bedroom. The love for details and the quality of materials is remarkable.

Brambles of Inveraray

Inveraray

Located in Inveraray and within less than 1 km of Inveraray Castle, Brambles of Inveraray features a garden, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi. This 4-star inn offers a 24-hour front desk.

Guest rooms at the inn are equipped with a seating area and a TV. Each room is equipped with a kettle, while some rooms are equipped with a kitchen with a fridge, a dishwasher and an oven. At Brambles of Inveraray each room includes bed linen and towels. We loved our stay of 2 nights in the Garden suite! Simply amazing! When we arrived we had a very nice warm welcome of Victoria, one of the owners of Brambles of Inverary. The Garden suite is just lovely! Amazing comfortable beds and sofa in front of the tv. My compliments to the housekeeper who specially arranged the stuffed animals of my daughter on her bed when we came back in our room. This totally made her feel really special. Brambles had their own restaurant and coffee café accross the street. In their restaurant they serve during the day nice lunches including amazing pastries and cakes. I was personally in heaven with 1 of their specialties, the blue berry lemon curd cake with lemon frosting. It's a good thing for my health that I do not live here haha. The first night we also had dinner at the restaurant of Brambles. This was also really excellent. The staff is very welcoming and friendly. This restaurant is nice for any kind of group. In the morning we had breakfast at Brambles which was included. You could choose something cooked from the menu and you were able to take anything you wanted from the counter. Like croissants, cereals or juices. We had Eggs Benedict, very tasty! Brambles is located at the main street of Inverary. Within 10 minutes walk of the Inverary castle and 1 minute walk of the Inverary Jail. Both I definitely recommend to visit! In the area there are also really nice hikes you can do for example go up the mountain 250 metres high to the look out point of Dun Na Cuaiche. Trust me it's worth it! The view at Inverary and Loch Fyne is breahttaking! Next time if Inverary is on our route, we will again book our stay with Brambles!
