Auchrannie's life began back in 1869 and it has had a variety of roles since then, being a family home, a naval officers club and a guesthouse. In 1988 it was purchased by Linda and Ian Johnston to be able to offer an indoor swimming pool to the community of the island for sustainable tourism and to be able to teach the children of the island to swim. Auchrannie as it is today, has just been a project that has kept on growing, developing, getting better, moving with the times and challenging the norm of hospitality as we know it. The resort has always been family run but over the years the family has increased to 170 strong and as an employee owned resort, they feel that more than anything. Auchrannie is a great place to work due to the upfront and honest communication that they have, the fun they have in their teams and the way in which they are all challenged to achieve their very best every day.
