THE OLD ABERLADY INN

The Old Aberlady Inn is a family hotel. No one could fail to feel the relaxing, friendly atmosphere of the cosy well-stocked bar with its "olde worlde" charm and its fine selection of wines, beers, and traditional Scottish Malts.

The Old Aberlady Inn enjoys an attractive setting in the historic and picturesque village of Aberlady in East Lothian. Here the visitor is only 18 miles from Scotland's Capital City of Edinburgh, yet has the privilege of feeling "away from it all" beside nature reserves, sandy beaches, and sites of historic importance. But, most of all, people come to enjoy golfing on some of the oldest and worthiest courses in Scotland. Musselburgh, after all, rather than St. Andrews, claims the title of the world's oldest course.

The Old Aberlady Inn has earned an outstanding reputation for the quality of its cuisine, served in the restaurant or in either of its homely bars, where chef presents the very best of Scottish meat and fish in a variety of imaginative dishes to suit all tastes.

In the summer months, guests may enjoy eating and drinking "al fresco" in the attractive and colourful beer garden.

All the attractively furnished bedrooms at The Old Aberlady Inn are supremely comfortable and fully equipped with en suite facilities, colour TV, tea/coffee facilities, and direct dial telephone.

Kilspindie House Hotel was taken over in 2004 by Malcolm and Fiona Duck, and renamed Duck's at Kilspindie House. Having undergone an extensive refurbishment Kilspindie House has been granted a three star rating from Visit Scotland as a Restaurant with Rooms. Bed & Breakfast is offered in Ducks 23 en-suite bedrooms and it now also has two restaurants. Duck's restaurant and head chef came highly commended at the 2006 Scottish Chef Awards.

Malcolm and Fiona were already passionate restaurateurs with their well established Duck's at Le Marché Noir restaurant in Edinburgh, which closed in 2009 after 20 years with an international reputation, a Wine Spectator honoured wine list, entries in most major guide books and a Bib Gourmand in the Michelin Guide. Duck's in Edinburgh closed down so that Malcolm and Fiona could concentrate on Ducks in Aberlady, Malcolm felt trying to do both was neither enjoyable nor satisfying and that he was spending too much time on the road and not enough time in either place.

Duck's restaurant offers Fine Dining with white linen and candles, a Seasonal á la carte menu including seafood, steaks, lobster and an award winning wine list.
