What ex-
From me and all my friends who have adored our time at 15 Mayfield Road over the
past three years! An enormous, heartfelt thank you for everything. A student house
can make or break the University experience-
We
will carry the happy memories from our time here forever. We could not have asked
for more attentive, friendly and skilled landlords.
Wishing you all the very best,
take so much care and se you around in Bath one day in the near future.

Thank you for being such great landlords! I really enjoyed my two years at 15 Mayfield Road. The house has four spacious bedrooms, which is quite rare for a student house, and the shared spaces are also great with everything you could need. The house is also in a great location, close to shops, restaurants, bus stops, and walking routes. Alexander and Sharron were friendly and reliable landlords who were always quick to help with any issues we had. I would definitely recommend them as landlords (and 15 Mayfield Road!) to any students looking for a home in Bath.
All the best,

I am more than happy to say that “49 North Road is a great home to live in, warm walls, easy and flat commute into uni, 5 minute cycle to a big supermarket and great landlords! Could not ask for a better student home!”

I enjoyed my two years at 15 Mayfield Road. The house has four light and spacious bedrooms with a homely kitchen/living room. It was very helpful to have the downstairs loo as well as the large upstairs bathroom. Mayfield Road is a great location close to the Moorland Road shops, U2 bus stop, and a short walk into town.
Alexander and Sharron were very responsive landlords who made sure to resolve any issues quickly. I can recommend them as trustworthy landlords and 15 Mayfield Road as a good student house!
All the best,

For my final year of university I couldn’t have asked for a more comfortable house
than 15 Mayfield Road. The rooms were uncommonly spacious for a student house, and
it was well presented with lots of natural light thanks to its prime location. It
had everything you'd need from a student house, and even a little bit more! The
landlords, Alexander and Sharron have been excellent and friendly from my initial
inquiry about the property, responding to any issues that arose promptly, and all
the way to the check-
All the best, and I wish you both well,

Our time at 13 Hungerford road has been a pleasurable stay, a wonderful bath terraced house that we could call home for a year. The Landlord was incredibly helpful, with rapid responses and solutions to any issues we faced and providing us with plenty of notice when they would be visiting.
As a first time renter, I have had a great first experience and would highly recommend.
Thank you for all the help this year will the various issues we faced, it has been very much appreciated. I will keep your details to hand for the future, thank you.

Me and my three friends’ experience at 15 Mayfield Road made our second year a joy.
To give you an idea: we would wake up every morning in spacious, light rooms with
large desks to do our work on and double beds with comfy mattresses. With a big upstairs
bathroom and extra downstairs loo, getting ready in the mornings was stress-
All my best wishes and looking forward to getting in touch early next year,

My stay at 15 Mayfield Road was very pleasant, with the house being incredibly spacious and having four decently sized bedrooms which is often rare for student houses. The location is also an added bonus with the house being in walking distance to the local shops and bus stops that service different areas of Bath including the University. Alexander and Sharron were also incredibly helpful and resolved any issues we had quickly. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and I would definitely recommend 15 to any students looking for a student house!
Once again, thank you for all of your help and it was a pleasure knowing you!
Best wishes

I have been extremely satisfied living at 26 Alpine Gardens for two years. The house
is nicely structured and has plenty of space for three people living there, each
with their own double bedroom. The house further has a cosy communal living room,
a nice kitchen with good table-

Both Alexander and Sharron have been excellent during my 4 years living in one of their houses. They are always accommodating to any needs or requests and will do everything they can to help. The house was far nicer and larger than most other student houses. The house was always incredibly maintained with renovations made most summers when I was away. Alexander and Sharron live locally and were always very responsive. They always made sure that any issues were solved immediately with little disruption. The location of the property is excellent being only a few hundred meters to the university campus. I had an excellent experience renting from Sharron and Alexander and have nothing but great things to say, I would recommend them to anyone!
Thank you both for everything you have done during my stay. If there is anything else you need, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
Best wishes,
William

Hi Sharron,
Thanks -
I've had a great experience living at 49 North Road. It has the benefits of being located in a more quiet, rural area of Bath, whilst also having easy and quick access to the city centre and university. All the rooms are spacious and homely, and the kitchen / living room area provides a nice place to socialise with housemates.
All the best,
Ben

Dear Alexander and Sharron,
Thank you for your kindness throughout the year. 13 Hungerford Road was incredibly
easy to settle in to. Both Alexander and Sharron ensured we arrived at ease and felt
welcome. Alexander and Sharron were amazing throughout the year, if there was a problem
it’d be sorted ASAP. The location was perfect! So close to Lidl, Victoria Park and
Puregym with amazing bus links to Bristol city centre and Bath city centre-

Thank you to yourself and Alexander for being very helpful over the tenancy and providing a very nice house. 47 North Road is very well equipped and in a great location for the University of Bath, being easily walkable (or cyclable) while also directly on a main bus route. The local shops and pharmacy are conveniently only a couple of mins walk away, as is a bus stop for access to Bath centre. The property is very comfortable, well equipped and maintained to a high standard.

You have both been very attentive, flexible and proactive landlords. I have really enjoyed living at Woodland Grove, it's far nicer than any other student house and incredibly well maintained. The location is obviously a huge benefit and has made my life a lot easier the 2 years I've lived there. Thank you for everything.

I would definitely recommend renting with this landlord. The landlord has been renting houses to students of Bath university for many years and is very experienced in sorting out any issues tenants may have. Several months into our tenancy last year, our oven went wrong and the landlord and landlady made sure a brand new one was bought and the old one was replaced within a few days. The landlord is very keen to provide an excellent renting service at a competitive price.
For nearly two years, myself and my two housemates have lived in this house. The
year before, we lived in the house next door (51 North Road, also owned by this landlord).
Both houses are ideal student houses, being a manageable, yet comfortable size to
live in. Both houses have three bedrooms, with modern kitchens, bathrooms and boilers.
The houses are in kept very good condition, and have been continually maintained
and updated by the landlord during the summers whilst we have been at home. The rent
is very reasonable and the water bill is included in the fees, which can be paid
in three instalments or monthly. The houses have a nice garden area and a bike shed
out the back. There is private off-
Combe Down is a quiet village about two miles from Bath university campus. By bike,
being on top of the hill, it takes about 15 minutes to cycle from Combe Down to campus.
To walk, it is about 35 min. There are regular buses to campus (20C/20A) and the
village itself has a small selection of shops and take-

‘Once again, thank you for being brilliant landlords and providing us with a lovely house for a final year in Bath. The year didn’t end as we’d have hoped, but our lovely home in number 26 made everything much easier to deal with. I’ve written a short testimonial below which hopefully you can use on your website if you’d like to.
Alexander and Sharron are fantastic landlords, offering excellent quality student accommodation. They are very approachable and deal with any problems that may arise very quickly. 26 Alpine Gardens is a lovely student house in an ideal location close to the city centre and I’d highly recommend it to any student in Bath looking for somewhere to call home. They take great pride in going above and beyond what many other landlords would consider necessary. They were also incredibly flexible and fair at the time of the corona virus outbreak, highlighting their genuine interest in the wellbeing of their tenants and not just on making a profit. I have no hesitation in recommending them’.

“15 Mayfield Road has been a place I have been fortunate enough to call home for
four years, while studying at the University of Bath. The house is very spacious,
a luxury for most students coming from University campus accommodation. The house
is situated in a great location, close to many shops and takeaways on Moorland Road.
It is within walking distance to the town and very close to the bus stops that serve
the University. Alexander and Sharron, treat the house as their own and ensure that
all the appliances are updated and are of good quality. Whenever there is a problem,
they are easy to contact and usually resolve the problem swiftly, which is a benefit
of living in one of their houses. Both Alexander and Sharron are very friendly and
approachable. I certainly will miss the many great conversations I have had with
them on a variety of interesting topics. Note, both are very knowledgeable and you
can learn a thing or two from them and that isn’t included in the rent, a bonus if
I say so myself. Not many students can say that they have known their landlords on
a personal level. I will certainly miss them and 15 next year”.

“I really enjoyed my two years at 13 Hungerford Road! The house is a really nice
size for three people and there's plenty of storage space. The heating is good and
warm during colder months and the house is generally nice and cozy. There are also
less students around than in Oldfield Park so it's usually very quiet. The landlord
and landlady are fantastic and friendly -

“Thank you for the wonderful time at 13, I greatly enjoyed my time there. I can quite
easily say that it is a very conveniently located house, with great transport links
(providing First bus is nice) and close convenience stores. It also has a good kitchen
(great gas hob), large rooms and great furniture, and it really felt comfortable
and homely”.

“I have been renting from Alexander and Sharron since my second year of University
(4 years ago) and with good reason; initially in Combe Down and later in Woodland
Grove, the properties are perfectly located to get to Uni without having to rely
on the bus service but having access to it if needed. This, coupled with the high
quality of the houses themselves and straightforward and human approach to letting
offered by Alexander and Sharron from initial viewings through to maintenance and
emergencies, I do not think I could have had a better student rental experience and
that is a major part of why I stayed with them for so long. I would recommend renting
with them to anyone!”

"It was an absolute pleasure to live at 26 Alpine Gardens; having a landlord who clearly takes a lot of pride in providing quality student housing is very refreshing. For the final years, the house was perfect, we had three large rooms & Alexander was very happy for us to bring our own double beds. When we arrived, the house was spotless, the furniture was all absolutely fit for purpose (two really comfy sofas) & the appliances in the kitchen were all modern. We didn't really have any problems throughout the year but whenever we contacted Alexander, there was always a swift response.
At the end of our tenancy, we had no problems with deposits being returned with the charges for damage that we had caused being very fair (I would say lenient in fact). Overall I would recommend Alexander & Sharron as landlords to anyone & will be telling my brother to get in contact with them when he gets back from placement".

We were given due warning any time Alexander wished to visit the house. Our full deposit was returned promptly".

Alexander was also very helpful when it came to giving references."

We made great use of the bike shed, the kitchen was large enough for 3 people and the bedrooms were spacious with plenty of room for storage. I would definitely recommend the house to others."

to securely store bicycles. The house's location surely couldn't be improved for
students with a desire to live in a location near the university (within walking
distance and a 5 to 8min cycle) but also live in an area with the feel of a village
lifestyle and the potential to immediately enter the stunning countryside surrounding
Bath to escape the pressures of your degree. In addition to this there is a Sainsbury's
