Sangster & Company is pleased to announce its appointment as principal contractor for The Falls Project, a new fine dining restaurant set to open near Banchory in summer 2026.

The development will transform the former Falls of Feugh site into Falls by Orry Shand, a high-end riverside dining destination led by renowned chef Orry Shand and his team.  The project represents a significant investment in the local hospitality sector and is expected to become a standout addition to Royal Deeside’s food and drink offering.

Strip out works are already well under way, marking the first phase of the refurbishment programme.  The project will involve a comprehensive redevelopment of the existing building, delivering a premium dining environment in keeping with the location’s unique setting.

Sangster & Company will work closely with Orry, Bruce and their team throughout the build, alongside Glasgow-based Scarinish Studio, who have been appointed to lead the interior design and Steve Taylor Architecture to create a truly distinctive dining environment.

Nick Sangster of Sangster & Company commented: “We are delighted to have been appointed to deliver The Falls Project.  It is great to see works progressing on site and we look forward to collaborating with the wider team to bring this exceptional venue to life.”

The restaurant is scheduled to open later this year and is anticipated to attract both local visitors and national interest.
