The Peat Inn Restaurant with Rooms

The Best Places to Visit in Scotland | Condé Nast Traveler

"Beloved as a restaurant with rooms in Fife, The Peat Inn is singled out as a reason to visit the peninsula for its food alone." - Mike MacEacheran

"Geoffrey and Katherine Smeddle have run this restaurant since 2006, but the history of this whitewashed inn extends back to the 18C. Geoffrey is an experienced and knowledgeable chef who has built up a close web of suppliers which, in conjunction with the seasons, virtually writes the menu. Expect to find ingredients like East Neuk crab, Black Isle lamb and Easter Grangemuir Farm strawberries. All of these are put to great use in vibrant, flavoursome dishes. Stylish, split-level bedrooms are available too, with breakfast served in your room." - Michelin Inspector

"Hotels in St Andrews are largely of the golf resort variety, like Rusacks—if you want something quieter, drive to East Neuk for cozy stays like The Peat Inn."

"Peat Inn Around since the mid-1700s, the Peat Inn has gone from a coaching inn to a pub to a Michelin-starred restaurant with rooms. Regardless of its format, however, it’s always offered superior hospitality—a tradition that owners Geoffrey and Katherine Smeddle carry on to this day. In The Residence, guests find eight beautifully appointed suites, seven of which feature a split-level design with a bedroom and bathroom on the lower floor and a separate living room on the mezzanine level. Next door is the Michelin-starred restaurant, which serves modern Scottish cuisine prepared with local ingredients and classic techniques. To pair with the exquisite fare, there’s a wine list with more than 400 bottles, from classic Burgundys and Bordeaux to small, lesser-known varieties from Spain, Italy, Germany, the U.S., South Africa, and Australia. When you’re ready to venture out, the inn is conveniently located near St Andrews Links, West Sands Beach, and the city of Dundee."

The Peat Inn (St. Andrews, UK) Verified Reviews | Tablet Hotels

"Hidden in the Fife countryside, The Peat Inn is part restaurant, part all-suite retreat, and entirely worth seeking out. Just eight generous suites sit behind the main house, each with garden views, soft tones, and split-level layouts with smart tweed sofas and deep baths. It’s the kind of place where you’re looked after before you even think to ask. It keeps things simple: calm suites, a great table, a team that pays attention and food that more than earns its reputation. For those who make the trip, it’s not easily forgotten, nor easily topped." - Tablet Hotels
