Fancy double double-yolked eggs for breakfast?
Our new young Silver Sussex hen, Agnus is, like all of our hens, is named after a plant...but we think "Eleagnus Quicksilver" is a bit of a mouthful!

She has even produced some HUGE eggs with double yolks and they are absolutely delicious, especially when fried.    Mmmmmm......anyone hungry?????

These little beauties are indeed super tasty eaten straight from the plant and even more so when roasted in a little local rapeseed oil.   Just as well we have plenty of them as our guests love them!

Marmalade-making!

Closing

The Dulaig B&B is now closed.

It has been our absolute pleasure to share our home, garden, love of Scotland and of food, with guests over the past 14 years. The experience of running our B&B exceeded our wildest dreams however we - Carol, Gordon (& The Cake Fairy) - have hung up our aprons for the last time.

Thank you to the wonderful guests from all over the world who have stayed with us. You have given us so many special memories which we will always treasure. Thank you too, everyone else who has supported us: your confidence in us was appreciated more than words can say.

Warmest Wishes to All,
Carol, Gordon..and The Cake Fairy x
