The future of Mar Hall Golf and Spa Resort in Renfrewshire looks uncertain as it calls in administrators.

EY-Parthenon’s Turnaround and Restructuring Strategy team were appointed on Monday.

A statement on the hotel's website says it's still business and usual, though, pending its sale.

It reads: "On 22 August 2023, Andrew Dolliver, Kris Aspin and Joseph Luke Charleton, of EY-Parthenon’s Turnaround and Restructuring Strategy team were appointed as Joint Administrators of Mar Estates Limited, trading as Mar Hall Golf & Spa Resort (“the Resort”).

"The Resort continues to trade on a business-as-usual basis.

"Existing bookings and gift vouchers remain valid. Any customer queries should be directed to info@marhall.com.
