Around 300 jobs have been put at risk following a fatal fire at a luxury Loch Lomond hotel.

Cameron House employs around 450 people, including 155 on zero hours contracts.

All 450 were invited to a presentation today at Dumbarton FC.

Around 200 attended.

They were told a consultation on redundancies has been launched, which is likely to take several weeks.

It's expected around 300 jobs will go and around 150 permanently contracted staff - mainly in maintenance and grounds keeping roles - will keep their jobs.

It's expected it will be some months before Cameron House re-opens although the golf course, Boat House and marina are still open.

32 year-old Simon Midgley and 38 year-old Richard Dyson died after a blaze ripped through the main building on 18th December
