What is it that makes for the best food in Ireland and Scotland? We say it\u2019s got to have the heart of home in it, which means fresh-picked produce from the green fields of Ireland and Scotland\u2019s farms, and there is no better season than the harvest season<\/span>,\u00a0Lughnasa<\/span>,\u00a0for sourcing said quality ingredients.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

Celebrated as the first of the three Harvest Festivals in the Celtic Isles, Lughnasa takes place on August 1 and traditionally signalled the start of the reaping harvest seasons. Our farms are the source of exceptionally high-quality produce and products all year round, but there is something special about taking foodie travel for the best eating in Ireland and Scotland with autumn just around the corner.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>

We take our foodie travel seriously here and the best Irish and Scottish food is locally sourced and frequently sustainable. It’s a combination of creativity and quality, and if you\u2019re looking to go all in for Lughnasa, farm-to-table dining and walking foodie experiences are ones that you cannot miss.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
