At The Fife Arms in Braemar, just a stone’s throw from Balmoral Castle, there is truly something for everyone.
To reach The Fife Arms, you must first cross the Cairnwell Pass. Don’t panic, however, when the A93 grows steadily narrower and steeper—at one point, it glides through a glacial valley and becomes the highest main road in the United Kingdom—as you’ll eventually wend your way back down the other side to encounter some of the most spectacular vistas in all of Scotland.
After our long journey deep into this bucolic corner of Scotland, however, our appetites had been firmly whetted, and it was time to head down for dinner. Our first port of call was the jewel box of a bar, Elsa’s, which takes its cues from none other than Elsa Schiaparelli, who, it turns out, spent time in Braemar as a guest of her friend Frances Farquharson, the first wife of the 16th Laird of Invercauld and a former editor of Harper’s Bazaar.
