You can get paid to live on a Scottish island – and it includes driving lessons and spa access

HAVE YOU always fancied adventuring to a remote island? Then you might now have the perfect opportunity.

A hotel located off the Scottish mainland will pay you to relocate – and the staff perks include driving lessons as well as spa access.

The Isle of Mull Hotel and Spa are looking to fill certain roles for summer, including housekeepers, restaurant staff, night porters, bar staff and concierge.

As well as providing luxury live-in accommodation, they will also pay a salary of £25,000 to £28,000 depending on experience.

It is situated on the Isle of Mull, which is the second-largest island of the Inner Hebrides – and is a speedy boat ride away from Oban on the mainland.

The newly-renovated hotel, which is rated four stars on Trip Advisor, has a 17-metre pool and ‘mud room’ in the spa.

Additionally, there’s an on-site restaurant, called Òran na Mara, which serves dishes made from local ingredients. 

One of the main attractions is the stunning sea views, including the opportunity to watch an amazing coastal sunset each night.

The hotel’s employees can also enjoy a number of financial perks – including contributions towards driving lessons and £2,000 per annum extra in tips.

Other benefits include a subscription to PerkBox – which provides discounts at restaurants and bars –  as well as time off when your child starts school and a pet bereavement day.
