Muckle Media, the creative communications PR agency, is welcoming the boutique hotel group Sonas Collection, to its 2024 roster of hospitality clients, following a period of sustained growth for the agency.

The dedicated food, drink and hospitality PR team, ‘Taste’, which has been part of the Muckle Media Group since 2022, will be providing PR support to new client Sonas Collection following a competitive pitch process.

Taste has been brought on board by Sonas at an exciting time of expansion for their west coast hospitality portfolio, as it launches its first venue on the Scottish mainland.

Sonas has invested in PR support from the agency as a part of its growth plans, tasking Muckle Media with the promotion of Knipoch House Hotel, the group’s newest property opening in Oban this March following a £1.3 million renovation.

In addition to the launch of Knipoch House, the agency will be providing ongoing communications and media relations support across the Collection’s three other hotel destinations, located on the Isle of Skye; Skeabost House Hotel, Duisdale House Hotel, and Toravaig House Hotel.

Founded by Anne Gracie-Gunn and her late husband Ken Gunn from their passion for showcasing Gaelic language and culture, the beauty and accessibility of the Scottish coastline, Sonas Collection has become known for the exceptional hospitality the hotels provide through personal touches, exceptional food and drink and a deeply dedicated team.

Anne Gracie-Gunn, Owner and Director of Sonas Collection, said “We are delighted as a family as we move forward with our strong Management team into Argyll with the launch of Knipoch House Hotel. The Hotel, admired by myself, over many years, from afar as a potential possibility ….  ‘One Day!’ With the support and expertise of the Muckle Media Team we look forward to a very successful venture whilst delivering the highest quality on every level under the expert guidance of Andreas Maszczyk our Group General Manager.”

Linsay Brown, Director and head of Taste at Muckle Media, commented: “We have had an incredible year so far within the Taste team, and we are delighted to welcome the Sonas Collection onto our hospitality roster.

“It’s great to see our exciting growth plans for the team coming to fruition with four new destination hotels. We can’t wait to showcase our enthusiasm and creative ideas and get started on our plans with the Sonas team.”

Muckle Media holds offices in four of Scotland’s major cities: Edinburgh, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Inverness.
