Deeside Activity Park is not only a Mecca for outdoor activities and pursuits, as a diversification of a farming business we take our food very seriously. For our cakes and scones, Susan our baker, comes in early every morning and uses eggs from Cushnie and milk from Inverurie. My good pal Sandy Ingram cures his own bacon and allows us to make an excellent bacon roll, as well as his very tasty sausages on our barbecue.
But most important is our beef - Cairnton (the name of our farm) Aberdeen Angus beef, known the world over as the finest; bred and reared here in its homeland of Aberdeenshire, just a few miles from where the breed was founded in the early 1800's. Not only that, but our cattle are reared on a grass diet, go locally for slaughter and (most importantly) the beef is then 'dry aged' and hung for up to 30 days. This is the produce we offer, whether it's in our burgers or our speciality Rib Eye steak rolls, served with saute potatoes and 'Isabella's horseradish. Mmmm!
All of this and more is in our wee farm shop. It is not big and this allows us to be very choosey about what we stock. Our beef, Sandy's bacon, Cushnie Eggs, Rob James Macbeth Ales, Duncans of Deeside shortbread and oatcakes, Tillquillie oats, and of course Isabella's entire range of jams and sauces. Fresh veg is always on the rack and changed daily.
Come and have a browse round, a snack or a meal in the coffee shop, and before you go have a wander round the park and see the fish jumping in the loch.
