The Cross....one of SCOTLAND'S

20 BEST-KEPT SECRETS!

The Glasgow Herald . September 16, 2006.

"THE CROSS RESTAURANT WITH ROOMS Three AA rosettes for culinary excellence, the AA Wine Award for Scotland, a fourseal dining award from the RAC and one of the AA's top 200 places to stay in the UK . . . so why has nobody heard of The Cross? Probably because most of those who have discovered it are reluctant to share the secret - it's the kind of place you want to keep to yourself.

This five-star establishment, tucked away in Kingussie, is somewhat challenging to find because the owners have been forbidden from signposting it from the main road through the village. Persistence pays off, though: you'll be rewarded with a cup of tea, a slice of home-made cake and a friendly welcome from the thoroughly charming David and Katie Young. David is a former AA hotels inspector, and a lifetime of sampling the efforts of others has obviously paid off - the service is faultless and the food some of the finest in Scotland.

The former tweed mill has eight individually styled en-suite bedrooms, three backing onto River Gynack and one with a balcony. Guests can choose to eat in the 20-seat restaurant - and would be foolish not to - though some tables are reserved for locals. Young children and mobile phones are not welcome, which makes for a peaceful dining experience. The menu changes daily, but might typically feature boudin of local estate venison, wild Scrabster sea bass and a hot chocolate fondant with chilli ice-cream.

After dinner, guests can retire to one of two comfortable lounges and while away the rest of the evening with board games and a steady supply of whisky. Bliss."
