Emma There’s no risk of festive-goers going hungry at this weekends Best Of The West Festival (BOWFest) – the family-friendly festival held in the grounds of the magnificent Inveraray Castle from 8-10th September 2017.

And if all that wasn’t enough to tempt the tastebuds of the most devoted foodie, then The Best of the West Festival Kitchen will no doubt do the trick.Sponsored by the Luss Smokehouse, the live kitchen runs throughout the weekend and features: Masterchef: The Professionals 2016 winner Gary Maclean; Graeme Cheevers, head chef of Restaurant Martin Wishart, Cameron House Hotel, Loch Lomond and Paul Leonard, head chef at The Isle of Eriska Hotel Restaurant, both Michelin star restaurants.

Eleanor, Duchess of Argyll, Best Of The West Festival chairperson, said: “Whatever your taste in music or food, Best Of The West offers something for everyone and this year looks set to be the biggest and best yet!” Inveraray Castle, the jewel in the West Highland’s crown, provides a stunning venue for the event, which is fully under cover. The imposing, turreted castle, sits on the edge of Loch Fyne surrounded by the breath-taking scenery of the west coast. The Festival will take place in the grounds of the castle with the castle itself, hills and loch as a backdrop.
