Owners of 9 Salisbury Road, Februrary 2025
2024 was our first letting season and the Durrants Holiday Cottages team could not have been more helpful at every step of the way. They gave us invaluable advice before we got started with great ideas of what would work well for our property, saving us making costly mistakes, and they guided us expertly through everything we needed to do. Their care and support is ongoing and we cannot recommend Durrants highly enough to homeowners. Our guests are happy and so are we!
Owners of 4 Church Cottages, January 2025
We have just finished our first year letting our holiday cottage through Durrants and we couldn’t be happier!
The team have been with us every step of the way giving advice and making sure everything runs smoothly. One of the biggest advantages is that a member of the team is always on hand to deal promptly with queries from guests and they have a really good ‘support team’ of local plumbers, electricians and builders if a problem does occur.
We will certainly be continuing to let Durrants handle the letting and running of our property.
