Be part of the Family

We're a family business through and through - family owned since 1868, family run and with a warm family welcome for guests and team alike. Our seven hotels are unique and set in three stunning Scottish locations. Some are big, some are small, but all offer fantastic food and drink, cozy beds and a wealth of things to do.



We offer an expansive range of benefits to help you make the most of life outside of work, and we're committed to creating an inclusive culture where everyone feels heard and valued.



We treat our guests like family, and we support our people the same way. If you're someone who lives our values of Be Creative, Be Curious, Be Thoughtful, Be Positive and Be You, you'll fit right in.
