This weekend we spent a lovely day at the annual Usk Show, speaking to landlords and tenants about what matters most to them.

The Usk Show has been held every year since 1844 and is one of the biggest one-day agricultural shows in the UK, which makes it the ideal place for us to go and spread the word that serenliving offer fantastic lettings and management services for landlords and tenants across South East Wales. We spent the day offering free letting advice to people who were looking to rent, to landlords and to people thinking of entering in to the buy to let market.

We headed down on Thursday to set up our stand, including a beautiful floral display supplied by The Flower Shed in Undy, Monmouthshire and straw bales kindly supplied from a local farmer Alan Lennard. Not forgetting our wonderful Cow ‘Daisy’ printed by Ottimo Digital, Newport.

But with strong winds forecast overnight we weren’t entirely sure if our stand would still be there on Saturday morning. Luckily, it held together and all our hard work paid off as we won second place in the best non-agricultural stand competition.

Throughout the day, we gave out lots of sweets, lots of advice and spoke to many people, all keen to win our amazing pink wheelbarrow full of goodies.

The lucky winners were announced at 4pm – congratulations again to Mr and Mrs Thomas.

All in all, it was a great day and we can’t wait to head back next year.
