Scotland's Hotel Group of 2005 announce appointments of new Head Chefs
Matt Weedon,(pictured), has joined Glenapp Castle in Ballantrae, South Ayrshire, recently voted Scotland's Hotel of the Year by the AA. Previously Head Chef at the Michelin-starred L'ortolan restaurant in Berkshire, he has also been Head Chef of the three-AA- Rosette Seaham Hall Hotel in County Durham. Matt's wife Rachel has taken up the post of assistant to Glenapp Manager, John Orr.Since opening in 2000, Glenapp Castle has won a clutch of awards including three AA red stars and rosettes, four Red Turrets from Michelin, five stars from the Scottish Tourist Board, and Johansens Most Excellent Country House Award. This year it was also voted Scottish Luxury Hotel of the Year in the hotelreviewscotland.com Awards.
In a further appointment, Andrew Rankin has been appointed Head Chef at the Fernhill Hotel in Portpatrick, 18 years after starting work there as a Commis Chef. His experience has included Sous Chef at the Kirroughtree House Hotel at Newton Stewart, Head Chef at Mount Stewart Hotel in Portpatrick, and work at Corsewall near Stranraer, one of only two lighthouse hotels in the UK.
'Andrew's new role is further good news for the group,' said Director Douglas McMillan of McMillan Hotels, of which both hotels are members.
