Iron Age Gourmet Day

There was no kitchen in the Crannog, or at least not one that we would recognise today, but the Loch-dwellers managed with what they had producing fabulous down-to-earth nutritional food.

Our Iron age Gourmet day is one of our most popular events so don’t miss out on cookery demonstrations like you've never seen before: fish baked in clay stuffed with foraged herbs; fish smoked over an open fire; stews and soups using fresh local produce; breads, spreads and jams; locally-sourced spit-roast lamb, wild boar sausages to toast over an open fire and more.

Based on finds at the 2,500 year old Oakbank Crannog, our Gourmet Day proves that the ancient Loch-Dwellers were inventive, resourceful people who made the most of what was around them.

Group booking essential but everyone else is welcome to just come along and enjoy tasters of amazing food.
