AN ISLAY hotel owner has launched a scathing attack on HMRC after an error by the tax body nearly drove her out of business.
Katie MacLellan, who runs the Lochindaal Hotel at Port Charlotte along with her husband Iain, was horrified last month to discover a public notice in The Oban Times announcing the winding up of the firm.
Mrs MacLellan said the advertisement resulted in the hotel’s bank shutting its account, suppliers refusing to deal with them and customers cancelling visits.
