Jonathan Townsend Rose

Founder & Director

Jonathan has spent nearly 40 years managing prestigious historic, sporting and agricultural estates throughout England and Scotland.

This has given him a rare insight into the workings of these magnificent properties as well as a great feel for the diverse rental opportunities they afford.

In 1999 he founded LTR and since then he has been looking after our high end clients as they travel throughout Europe on their multi generational holidays. Jonathan has built up an impressive knowledge of England, Scotland & Ireland and of what the countries have to offer, as well as a keen interest in environmental issues and responsible sustainability.

Andrew Riddell

Director

Andrew, new to the team at LTR in April 2022, joined us having spent 9 years working for top estate agents, Strutt & Parker.  He worked in residential sales in both Edinburgh and then latterly in Notting Hill, London where he currently lives.  This has given him an understanding of the importance of excellent customer service as well as a strong knowledge and passion for amazing high quality houses.  Having lived in Scotland and England, with a love for the outdoors, he has a good knowledge and natural enthusiasm for what the houses and countries have to offer.

Andrew enjoys helping clients arrange holidays that will create lasting memories in some of the best houses and castles in the UK.

Outside work, Andrew loves anything sports related, from playing golf to running, and everything in between.  As well as sports, he uses music and photography to unwind after a long day!
