Industry leaders from across Ayrshire and Arran have come together to form a new destination management and marketing organisation for the region – Ayrshire & Arran Destination Alliance – to drive a collective way forward for the tourism industry following the pandemic.
Arran’s biggest hotel complex, Auchrannie Resort, reopened its two hotels, restaurants and bars on Wednesday as tourism continued to open up on the island.
It was a good night for the Auchrannie at the Scottish Thistle Awards last week where they picked up two prestigious gongs.
Businesses on Arran believe a new tourist initiative can help the island become a year round attraction.
Organisers thanked Linda Johnston for her assistance and all of the participants, teachers and everyone else who helped to play an invaluable part in ensuring the event was a success.
The First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has announced the formation of a new national body to promote employee ownership when visiting the Auchrannie resort earlier this week.
Having originally opened as a traditional 12-bedroom guest house the business has now grown to comprise 85 bedrooms, 30 luxury lodges and seven couples retreats – capable of accommodating up to 425 guests each night.
Luxury resort Auchrannie has completed its transition to become employee-owned with 160 members of staff becoming owners.
Auchrannie Resort has announced a new addition of luxury eco retreats aimed at couples.
