Renting here is usually cheaper than buying, and residual savings invested over a 20 year period can leave the renter with an asset similar in value to that of the homeowner. Justine and Simon are converts and particularly enjoy the time saved on house maintenance, but there must be something cultural about englishmen and castles. Their castle, purchased this week, is 38 square metres, sleeps two, and is available to let through www.holidaylettings.com.
