We have been renting a flat through Dawson Harden & Tanton for a number of years. I don't believe we have ever been let down by the agency and the rate has been very reasonable.

What a bunch of sharks. I rented a flat from them in London Road for many years; they did absolutely nothing in the way of repairs, cleaning of common areas or general maintenance. If there is ever a problem, they deny it. Totally unhelpful, unreliable and not interested in anything except getting ... Read Full Review

The worst kind of old fashioned, pedantic estate agent office that should have died out in the 70s. They 'treat their email as post and will respond within 7 days', according to their own automatic email response. The rest of the world has moved on and any potential clients should too. My ...
