Kilmarnock Arms Hotel Peterhead, Aberdeenshire AB42 0HD
A staggering two thirds of the world’s langoustines are landed in Scotland. Between the months of May to September, the Kilmarnock Arms Hotel has local lobster on the menu. Available with a day’s notice, head chef Matthew Lobban recommends the freshly caught lobster is simply grilled so as not to spoil the delicate flavours. With a real passion for fish, Matthew has access to the daily catches at Peterhead and Fraserburgh, just north of the hotel. These are Europe’s largest white and shellfish ports so diners at the Kilmarnock Arms are certain of fresh, quality ingredients in dishes designed to be savoured. For a luxury surf and turf dish, we recommend you add a 21 day, dry aged Highland Angus beef fillet to the grilled lobster! Crispy pork belly and the steak and ale pie are additional highlights to sample, plus the cheese board from Devenick Dairy. With a lovely wine list and a whisky menu too, guests will retire to their rooms with that satisfyingly contented feeling!

SOMERSET
For eight days in November some of the streets in Somerset are a sparkling scene of carnival processions. These night time celebrations feature up to 40 carts, often up to 30 metres long and each one illuminated with over 20,000 lights and costing tens of thousands of pounds to create. Originally dating back to the Gunpowder Plot of 1605, these are thought to be the largest illuminated processions in the world. Today’s carnival attracts visitors from across the UK; up to 150,000 people line the streets in Bridgwater where the event always starts. Taking place from Saturday 2 November and finishing in Wells on Friday 15 November, the carts will have paraded through the streets of Highbridge, Burnham-on-Sea, Westonsuper-Mare, North Petherton and Shepton Mallet. Many of the visitors to Somerset over this period stay for more than one carnival, soaking up the electrifying atmosphere and marvelling at the 2.5km long parade of themed creations that have taken thousands of hours to make.
