Crieff Hydro Family of Hotels has signed its second associate hotel agreement with The Drummond Arms.
The group will help the hotel in St Fillans with a full refurbishment before reopening to the public in spring or summer 2023.
The Drummond Arms, most recently known as the Loch Earn Brewery and Hotel, is situated on the banks of Loch Earn.
The hotel features 38 bedrooms, three restaurants, three bars including a loch-side beer garden, and a coffee shop.
The property also has direct loch access, with ten moorings, three piers and a private slipway. It also has its own brewery, which has been purchased by the new owners with plans to open next year.
Stephen Leckie, chief executive of Crieff Hydro Family of Hotels, said: “We are absolutely delighted to welcome The Drummond Arms as our second associated hotel.
“We will be working in partnership with the new owners to undertake a full refurbishment of the hotel in the next 18 months with a view to welcoming guests in spring or summer 2023.
“We have also undertaken responsibility for the day-to-day running of the waterfront which will be offering paddle boarding and kayak rentals until the very end of the summer season.
“The hotel and its fantastic location is a great opportunity to develop an exciting leisure and hospitality offering for the area.”
