Our house letting policy

Of the 25,000 buildings that we own, more than 5,000 are houses and cottages. Many were acquired as part of larger estates and often include estate villages which had historically provided homes for estate workers.

We are a major provider of homes for people in more than 40 villages. In fact in some areas we are the principle provider of rural housing. This means that the decisions that we make in allocating and managing housing can have a real impact on the local community.

Overall Objectives for Housing:

  • To safeguard the physical contribution our houses and cottages make to the historic built environment
  • To further our work in the locality through selection of tenants with suitable skills 
  • To generate rental income to support our purposes 
  • To help meet identified social housing needs where we are a significant housing provider
  • here possible, to favour those making a contribution to the community
