Being from Kendal and growing up within the Lake District myself, I have the local area knowledge, a great love for property and the great outdoors. I started helping settle buyers into their new homes in Grange Over Sands, progressing to sell high net worth homes throughout the South Lakes and Lake District since 2009. I have passion and enthusiasm for property and dedicate my time to delivering innovative marketing options, with exceptional customer service, throughout our Kendal and Grange Over Sands sales offices.
Alison Wray
Assistant Manager

Started my work life at Arnold Greenwood 19 years ago, when my children were still at Primary school. Very much office based, love talking to people who are looking for houses in the area, to arranging viewings and agreeing a sale for our vendors. The very best bit of the job is passing over the keys on completion day to new home owners. So lovely that along the way, you get to meet lots of lovely people, who still stop for a chat and wave when passing our lovely big window in town. Out of work very family based, love meeting friends for a cuppa and catch up, going for walks with hubby and sometimes our son and daughters in laws miniature dachshund “Snickers” likes to join us. We have just become Grandparents for the first time to our first Granddaughter, so special times ahead with lots of new adventures ahead.
Kate Gott
Administrator
E: kate@arnoldgreenwood.co.uk
My name is Kate, and I have worked for Arnold Greenwood in the Kendal office for over 14 years. I started working as a sales negotiator, covering maternity leave, and was very pleased to be offered a permanent job and the chance to become part of the strong team we are today. I now work as the administrator within the estate agency, visiting our properties and working with our vendors to make the most of their advertising.
I have been married for 34 years, and although we both grew up in the local area, even attending the same primary school, we have lived all that time in Arnside, in the Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. My two children grew up in Arnside, enjoying the village, enjoying the village primary school, community, and social activities that the beautiful village has to offer.

I love to travel, to cook, to eat great food (fortunately my husband is a great cook too). Mum to two sons and a stepdaughter. I absolutely love my job as a property valuer, I get to meet so many interesting people, some who have gone onto become good friends. When the weekend comes, I can be found walking and swimming in the Lakes, cycling and paddle boarding.
Sue Woods
Sales Negotiator
E: suew@arnoldgreenwood.co.uk
I have been a Sales Negotiator at Arnold Greenwood Estate Agents for six years, and I really enjoy my work. Meeting new people and helping them to sell their property is incredibly rewarding.
I feel very lucky to live in such a beautiful area and love exploring it whenever possible. In my free time, I enjoy nothing more than spending time with my family, walking the fells, swimming in the lakes, photography, and can even be found hugging a tree or two!
Millie
Training Apprentice
I have just joined the Arnold Greenwood Estate Agency team as an apprentice at the start of September and now attend Kendal College one day a week. I am really enjoying learning the ins and outs of selling, valuing, viewing and marketing a home and I have a great team teaching me every step of the way.
I enjoy meeting my tight-knit friend group that I have known since nursery, and we enjoy going on days out and cooking together. In my spare time I also enjoy drawing, my favourite to draw being random tattoo designs.
