The AA named its top B&Bs in the UK, and one in a popular Scottish island took home the ‘Best Breakfast’ accolade.
Roskhill House in the village of Dunvegan on the Isle of Skye, was given the Best Breakfast award, out of a range of B&Bs in the UK, at the event which took place earlier this month.
Award categories at the AA Awards included: AA Inn of the Year, AA Restaurant with Rooms of the Year and AA Bed and Breakfast of the Year, with winners selected from each of the three nations.
From the wild coasts of the Outer Hebrides to the surrounds of historic Bath, the winning B&Bs highlight the diversity and richness of the UK hospitality scene.
The AA team had this to say about Roskhill House’s breakfast: “Begin your day at Roskhill House with a carefully curated breakfast where quality, freshness, and locally sourced ingredients take centre stage.
“Enjoy a generous selection that includes eggs from their own happy hens, seasonal fruits, yogurt, and Scottish vegetarian cheeses. Savour a variety of baked delights such as oatcakes, fresh breads, homemade cinnamon buns, cakes, seeded banana bread, muffins, and sourdough toast.
“Accompaniments include local honey, their own marmalade, and a range of homemade jams. To complement your breakfast, they serve expertly roasted coffee from Birch in Portree and a thoughtfully chosen selection of teas from Shibui in Edinburgh.”
Of the overall awards, Simon Numphud, managing director at AA Hotel & Hospitality Services, said: “These awards shine a light on the brilliant people and places that make Britain’s B&B scene truly world class.
“Whether it’s a warm welcome in Scotland, a design-led retreat in England, or a culinary gem in Wales, this year’s winners represent everything that’s special about independent UK hospitality.
“They go beyond offering a bed for the night - they offer character, comfort and care that stays with you long after check-out.”
