Perthshire Breakfast

Travel around Perthshire and you'll soon notice that it is a favoured place. Its lush fields edged by woods, its straths, rivers and upland grazings all create a sense of well being in the landscape. And proof of this is in the sheer variety of quality produce that originates here.

From outstanding raspberries and mouth-watering soft fruit to fresh free range eggs and honey from hills and blossom. From top quality beef, lamb and game to wild boar, succulent venison and an array of vegetables, Perthshire is unbeatable.

A Perthshire Breakfast makes the most of this natural bounty and consists of at least 50% Perthshire produce - a delicious and memorable start to the day.

Several businesses in Perthshire are taking part in a new initiative and are shining a spotlight on our fabulous Perthshire produce by offering their guests a Perthshire Breakfast.

Perthshire Breakfasts are as individual as the businesses themselves. They reflect the creativity and culinary flair of the owners, the changing of the seasons and the diversity of quality ingredients found in Perthshire, the green heart of Scotland.


The local businesses listed below ...

... are proud to offer a Perthshire Breakfast:

We are passionate about a high standard of Perthshire Breakfast which begins with home grown, quality, fresh, local ingredients from Perthshire.   We provide an extensive menu, from our hearty Full Perthshire Breakfast to homemade delicacies.   We only purchase our sausages, haggis and black pudding from the top class local butcher, Simon Howie, and our eggs and oats are from Gloagburn Farm.  Granola and savoury scones, both homemade, are Almond Villa specialities.    We also use the seasonal fruits from Perthshire in our compote.

Promoting local produce is important to Almond Villa - as well as being tastier, it supports our community and is better for a sustainable environment.   We are members of the Green Tourism Business Scheme.
