LECKMELM HOLIDAY - Key Persons
"I came to run Leckmelm aged 21 when my Mum and Dad died in 1998. Quite a responsibility to take on, but lots of support then and to this day from friends and family. I have worked in the holiday cottage business since young whether helping fold brochures, counting coins from the electric meters back in the 80s, cleaning, painting cutting the grass. I changed a few things, my Dad first started the holiday enterprise in 1962. I brought in things like online bookings, said goodbye to the carbon copies and in 2004 I took the bold decision to demolish the old Lochside Cottages and completely rebuild them. One family of guests have been coming each year, twice a year since 1962 - they know Leckmelm longer than I do"
