Alexander Mackay

Founder

Al began his career in property in 2001, when he joined an International Private Equity House specialising in the turnaround of property assets. As Managing Director of the Hotels Division, Al focused on bringing together an impressive portfolio of Country House Hotels, which were restored to glory and re-established as “must stay” destinations.

In 2009 Al launched his own business in the Middle East, concentrating on the construction and renovation of luxury properties in this emerging and dynamic marketplace. Upon returning to the UK with his young family, Al launched Manton Property, as a means to bring under one roof his expertise in Construction, Design and Project Management.

Since 2015 Manton has become synonymous with delivering beautifully designed and delivered renovations.
