Ruth Clark's New Role

As Head Housekeeper at the Isle of Eriska Hotel and Spa, near Oban

E: scotland@ukha.co.uk

After spending two and a half years at the Cairndale Hotel and Spa, Ruth has moved back in to 5 star properties and is pleased to announce that she is now the Head Housekeeper at the Isle of Eriska Hotel and Spa, near Oban. A truly stunning hotel, nestled on its own private island off the west coast of Scotland, the epitome of luxury hospitality with a rich history dating back to 1884. And only accessible via the bridge from the mainland! Ruth and her team look after rooms and suites in the main house, plus the lodges and cottages in the extensive grounds. 

Ruth is planning to move to the Oban area to be nearer to family and friends and with her love of Housekeeping she will be a great asset and fit for this fantastic property.
