Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Loch Torridon and the majestic mountains of Wester Ross, The Torridon is one of Scotland’s most iconic and luxurious hotels. With 18 elegant bedrooms in the main hotel, 12 more relaxed rooms in The Stables, and a private Boat House retreat, The Torridon offers a truly unforgettable experience in one of the country’s most remote and beautiful locations.
For young people starting their hospitality journey, The Torridon is a dream training ground. As part of the Hospitality Apprenticeship programme, apprentices here learn the art of five-star service with a personal touch. From fine dining in the 1887 restaurant to relaxed service in the Bo & Muc brasserie, apprentices gain hands-on experience in a wide range of hospitality roles – all while surrounded by Scotland’s stunning natural beauty.
This is a place where excellence meets adventure. The Torridon isn’t just a hotel – it’s also an estate offering everything from kayaking and archery to foraging and whisky tastings. Apprentices might start the day setting breakfast in a luxury suite and finish it helping with an outdoor event beneath the stars.
Working at The Torridon means being part of a close-knit team who care deeply about service, sustainability, and showcasing the best of the Highlands. For those ready to learn, grow and make lasting memories, there are few places more inspiring to begin a career in hospitality.
