Annabelle Clitherow MARLA

Founder and Director

“It’s a joy to find new homes for our clients and see them settle in. We know we’ve done well when they renew because they are so happy there.”

After graduating, Annabelle worked for an independent property agency in London. In 2002, she moved to the beautiful Oxfordshire countryside and settled down with her husband and children. Annabelle set up Cherry Lets in 2012, aiming to build great relationships with all her tenants and landlords. Friends say she’s loyal, fun and enjoys creating surprises. Her colleagues say she’s the queen of multi-tasking, always on top of forward planning and that she genuinely cares about her clients. Annabelle relaxes by swimming and sharing meals with family and friends. Family holidays are mostly spent in St Ives, with the office dogs, Margot and Blue.

Lettings and Property Manager

“I believe that we can offer a more personalised service as an independent lettings agency and I love hearing that clients are happy with us.”

Sarah is a design graduate with an NFOPP level 3 qualification and fifteen years’ experience in a mixture of large and small agencies. Friends tell her she’s easy to talk to and positive; we say that means she’s great when her clients want to discuss their property options. Her aim is to find the perfect properties for clients and excellent tenants for landlords, and she enjoys the fast-paced environment within the agency. Sarah relaxes by visiting the cinema or planning holidays with her family.
