21/6/23 – Craig and Heather Wood Resign

It is with regret that NACBS must announce the resignation of Craig and Heather Wood from the Lochranza Country Inn (LCI).

For those familiar with the Inn you will know that the realities of upgrading the building, opening the public bar and actually living on site, for a family, have proven very difficult.

The LCI Board will communicate their plan going forward in tandem with a new General Manager (GM), or GM team once appointed.

Also, as you will already have noticed on the website this will not include the offering of hotel rooms by the LCI. The rooms will serve to provide the much needed staff accommodation in the short term.

The recruitment process is underway and at the present time NACBS and LCI remain committed and optimistic that we can bounce back from this set-back.

Support from the community remains essential. Hospitality on the Island and across Scotland is facing extreme pressure as customer expectation and business realities place strains on all the individuals at the front of the offerings.
