I have wanted to visit this wonderful example of the work of Charles Rennie Mackintosh for years. As it's a good two hour journey from Galloway to Glasgow I was ready for a coffee and, if possible, a slice of Rocky Road at the cafe before I went into the house. The cafe is lovely, proper table cloths and a sophisticated feel. A restaurant rather than a cafe really. The staff were happy for us to order a coffee even though it was almost lunchtime. Sadly they did not have any Rocky Road but they did have Chocolate Brownie, which was good. The coffee was ok but quite expensive for a relatively small cup.
The house itself did not disappoint, well worth the visit. It is simply beautiful.

Feel free to leave comments. I'd love to hear about places with great Rocky Road, recipes, places to avoid. Fans of Rocky Road share your passion here.
