Operators of a Sutherland fish and chip restaurant in Golspie say they are “happy beyond belief” to have won a national award.

The national grand final of the awards was held at the Doubletree by Hilton Hotel, Glasgow, yesterday – Sunday October 29.

Afterwards a post on the Trawler’s social media site read: “We only went and won! Happy beyond belief! Thank you everyone for your support. We take this award home for you. Golspie we love you."

The Trawler is run by Christie and Joanna Grey.

The Scotland's Business Awards is an independent regional and national competition, with nominations made by the public.

Members of the public can vote for a business, but it is only one factor – organisers say of "greater importance are the mystery shopper visits and our own visits to the business".

A total of 16 regional award shows are staged. Business owners and managers across Scotland are often visited in their place of business.

The Trawler won the regional award for the Highlands in March.
