What if I am a fussy eater, will I like the food?

At Blairvadach we always offer a range of food at meal times to suit most tastes and faiths. We encourage people to try new things however if you have specific dietary requirements please be sure to tell us (ask your group leader) in advance of your visit (we do not use nuts or eggs in our kitchen as standard).
