A classic of the Elsa's cocktail menu, 'Shocking Pink' is inspired by Elsa Schiaparelli's signature colour that she debuted in her Paris 1937 Collection – a shade she described as 'bright, impossible, impudent, becoming, life-giving', 'a shocking colour, pure and undiluted'.⁠
⁠
Beetroot-infused vodka lends the cocktail its radiant pink hue, layered with rich Chambord and sparkling Maid of Bruton Rosé, while the non-alcoholic variation combines Seedlip Grove with Noughty Rosé Sparkling Wine.⁠
⁠
When cocktail hour calls at the Fife Arms, settle in beneath the mirror ball in our Art Deco bar and be transported to the exuberant age of Schiaparelli.

A traditional pastime beloved by Queen Victoria, hike into the heather-clad hills with bonnie Highland ponies carrying your picnic of local fare in their wicker panniers. At the perfect spot, settle in for lunch amidst the wild mountain scenery and be transported to another age.

The Fife Arms prawn cocktail, our take on a timeless classic, is light, refreshing and sweet, making it the ideal summer starter. To follow, why not enjoy the Shetland mussels bathed in cider and wild garlic, before finishing with the indulgent Valrhona chocolate pudding, topped with cocoa crumble and clementine.⁠

Wild swimming at the Fife Arms is a bracingly feel-good experience for both mind and body, truly immersing you in nature and introducing you to the benefits of pure Scottish water.
 
With many exhilarating rivers and natural beauty spots located near the hotel, our Ghillie team can organise outings to the best locations for a dip with our experienced local partner, Annie Armstrong of Wild Braemar.
 
Afterwards, don the Fife Arms Dryrobe and eat a ‘chittery bite’ (Scottish for a sweet snack to warm you after a chilly plunge) to banish those post-swim shivers.
