Ms Stuart, who visited Loch Earn as a child, has been in the hospitality sector for 30 years and has worked with hotel chains such as Sheraton and InterContinental.
She said she was finally “living the dream”.
“I feel privileged to be the guardian of what is one of the most outstanding hotels in the area,” she said.
It was the hotel staff which impressed her during her first visit.
“Staff engaged with guests and that, combined with amazing views, is without a doubt a winning combination.”
Ms Stuart said she wants to prioritise “staff development” and aims to attract graduates who are starting out in the hospitality industry.
The hotel will stay pet friendly, with two-year-old Labrador Finn taking up the mantle as “pet receptionist”.
