About us

Co-founder Tanja oversees Seasgair Lodges’ operations, and she’s known for striving for excellence in every area of the business. She ensures each of our lodge owners enjoys exceptional service from initial enquiry to ongoing management. Tanja’s experience as a Chartered Surveyor, her passion for interior design and her commercial focus mean she’s the perfect person to give our owners and team sound guidance and support. Outside of work, you’ll find her walking in the hills and cycling in the forests.

Seasgair Lodge’s other co-founder, Judith, ensures that our guests receive an outstanding level of service from start to finish, working with the rest of the team to exceed guests’ expectations at every turn. With her background in HR and training, Judith is also focused on making Seasgair Lodges a great place to work. When she’s not working, Judith’s greatest love is skiing, but she enjoys less weather-dependent activities, too, including trail running and CrossFit.

Ruth oversees our guest service team, ensuring we enjoy strong customer relations and build brand  loyalty. Tapping into her extensive experience in 5-star hospitality and tourism and her brilliant  creativity, she consistently finds new ways of wowing customers so that they return to Seasgair Lodges again and again. Ruth loves days out exploring and walks on the beach, whatever the weather.

Katie is a qualified property solicitor who decided to pursue a change in career after having her  two children. An integral part of our guest service team, Katie responds to enquiries and bookings, so she’ll often be the first point of contact for our guests. Her love of the Scottish Highlands, coupled with her highly professional approach, means she always offers our guests the very best Highland hospitality. Katie loves wild swimming and going on outdoor adventures with her little ones. 

Born and raised in the Cairngorms, Jo has a deep-rooted love for the area and a passion for sharing it with others. As our Digital Marketing Executive, she brings creativity to Seasgair’s online presence. Whether she’s crafting engaging social media content, writing blog posts, or refining our marketing strategy, she’s always looking for new ways to connect with our audience and showcase what makes our lodges special. Outside of work, Jo is always on the move – whether it’s playing netball, skiing or exploring the Highlands.

Nic, a Chartered Surveyor, spent 18 years working in residential letting and property management in  Glasgow before moving to the village of Boat of Garten. It’s Nic’s job to ensure that when guests arrive, everything not only works but looks great, too, so she’s in regular contact with our lodge owners. Her keen interest in property development, refurbishment and construction means that she  has encyclopaedic knowledge of the inner workings of all our lodges. Nic loves cycling and playing  golf, and Nic and her husband own a holiday home themselves, so she understands first-hand what  property owners want and need from a management and marketing company.

Jo is a vital part of our operations team, often out and about at our lodges or coordinating with cleaners and suppliers to keep everything running smoothly. Working closely with Nic and our lodge checkers, she ensures each lodge is in perfect shape and ready to welcome guests. If guests need assistance during their stay, Jo is often one to help. When she’s not keeping things in order, you’ll find Jo enjoying local bike rides – especially those with a well-earned coffee and cake at the finish!

Kim plays a key role in preparing our lodges for guests, drawing on her years of experience in hospitality and tourism. With a sharp eye for detail and a hands-on approach, she ensures everything is looking its best before guests arrive and is always ready to offer help during their stay. Her love of the outdoors shines through in everything she does, whether she’s off on a camping trip in her tent box or tending to her ever-growing collection of veg and flowers in the garden.

Our team of hard-working lodge checkers make sure everything is precisely how we want it before  guests arrive, visiting every lodge after it has been cleaned to plump cushions, adjust the heating and take care of the little touches that make stays in our lodges so special.
