Grant Carnegie-Brown, General Manager
Grant has overall responsibility for the organisation. It's his job to oversee the general running of the operation and make sure our guests enjoy the 5 star standards of our lodges and their surroundings. Grant was a Major in the Army Logistics Corps before a stint in the construction industry and enjoys putting his extensive operational skills to good use at Brompton Lakes.
Kate Richardson , Bookings
Kate has been involved in Brompton Lakes since it's inception. She now looks after the front office and all customer bookings so when you ring, the chances are you’ll be speaking to Kate.
As well as a raft of experience working in the hospitality sector, Kate has a passion for motorsports and was a rally co-driver for a number of years as well as looking after numerous rally champions. Quite apt then that she’s now in the office driving seat looking after our customers!
Katey McKendoo , Warden
You’ll see Katey’s smiling face quite a bit during your stay.
As well as greeting you on your arrival, she is also a great source of local knowledge and will do her best to offer advice on things to see and do in the area. Katey is responsible for much of the upkeep and security at Brompton.
Sarah Metcalfe, Administration
All organisations need good people behind the scenes making sure things function smoothly. Sarah looks after the administration alongside Kate ensuring suppliers get paid on time, sorting out the payroll and many other important tasks.
Paul Walsh, Maintainance and Grounds Keeper
Paul's job is to keep on top of maintainance and make sure everything functions well in the lodges, as well as keeping the grounds and estate looking neat and tidy throughout the year.
Ria Orwin and Jan Woodhouse, Housekeepers
A lot of time and effort has gone into making our lodges as close to perfect as possible and Ria and Jan have the important job of making sure they look their best when guests arrive. They are also on hand to greet you and help in any way they can during your stay – whatever you need just let them know.
