OUTDOOR TEAM
 Innes MacNeill is Estate Manager. His experience spans almost 20 years of managing the habitat, flora and fauna of the Reserve. He is truly at one with Alladale. His knowledge of the local flora and fauna is positively encyclopedic and after a day on the Hill with Innes and his team of Rangers, guests never fail to return to the Lodge without singing their praises. David (nickname 'Poppy') Clark heads up the ranger team which currently includes Ronnie and John, all of whom enjoy sharing their collective knowledge and enthusiasm built on over 50 years on the Reserve.
LODGE TEAM
With years of experience of hosting lodges and planning events throughout Scotland through her own business, Charlie Raeder, our Lodge Manageress, will greet you upon arrival and welcome you to Alladale. With devotion to making your stay as comfortable as possible she leads the Lodge team; Michelle, Karen, Klara, Kirstin and Sian. Each take pride in their work, seeing Alladale as their home, and with an excellent eye for detail will ensure that Alladale becomes your home-from-home too. With an environmental background, Georgia Bayliss-Brown, our Planning and Sales Coordinator, is passionate about Alladale and its directives and with this devout enthusiasm answers all enquiries that come to the Reserve.
CHEF
Our new chef, Peter Cullen, joins us this year from the reputed Inver Lodge Hotel in Lochinver where he had been head chef for the past seven years. An award-winning chef in his own right and recognised as one of the top chefs in the Highlands, Peter's skills with Scottish produce can be seen on the plates at Alladale from afternoon teas to fine dining with the evening meals. A champion of using local produce, Peter's ethos is to use the best ingredients from the Reserve and surrounding area and making everything on-site to give our guests a memorable dining experience.
