A mother who escaped a hotel fire which claimed two lives said her 10-year-old son still suffers from anxiety and has trouble sleeping five years later. Hannah Munns was staying at the Cameron House Hotel with her husband and then five-year-old when the blaze broke out in December 2017.
They were in a room opposite Simon Midgley, 32, and his partner Richard Dyson, 38, from London, who died when flames tore through the five-star hotel on the banks of Loch Lomond. A Fatal Accident Inquiry (FAI) was held at Paisley Sheriff Court last year to establish if lessons could be learned from the disaster.
In a determination published on Wednesday, Sheriff Thomas McCartney said there were "a number of defects in systems of working which contributed to the accident resulting in the deaths" and made a number of recommendations. Mrs Munns said although she and her family managed to escape, the fire has had a major impact on her son.
