About Us
Summer Isles Hotel: History
Mark and Gerry Irvine run this individual but sophisticated hotel which has belonged to the family since the late 1960's. Mark's father, Robert, originally bought the hotel in 1969 leaving behind his film production company. When Robert decided to sell the hotel in 1985, Mark and Gerry gave up careers in London to take on the challenge.

Summer Isles Hotel Staffing
Bob Johnson and Mary Hewett joined the team in 1995 and now run a team of enthusiastic staff as General Manager and Head Housekeeper.
