"Housed in a 16‑room William Playfair–inspired Victorian townhouse in the West End, I found The Roseate richly traditional—huge fireplaces, ornate cornicing, peacock motif bedroom wallpaper, Persian rugs and free‑standing copper bathtubs—while owners’ Orkney heritage appears in oatmeal tweeds and fringed wool throws and a whisky cabinet that boasts over 80 fine Scottish single malts; all‑day dining focuses on hearty Scottish dishes like Highland rump and Aberdeen beef sirloin with an impressive cheese selection for pudding." - Rosie Conroy
