The landlord must give two months notice with a shorthold tenancy.

Four weeks notice tenant to landlord.

Is this downloadable agreement any use to you?

Thank you Ethel, thats really helpful - much appreciated
she is right, 2 months notice from the landlord and 1 month from the tenant.

I would recommend that you do not download tenancy agreements off the net, if i was you i would go to a letting agent for that. Most of the ones off the net get landlords into trouble later on if something does go wrong. sometimes the tenacy agreements you download are so bad you cant serve a section 21 and is very difficult to get problem tenants out of your property.

where abouts are you from??
The amount of notice you give depends on what you agreed in your tenancy agreement. Its not the same for every agreement.

I would try looking at <a href="http://www.netlawman.co.uk/residentialt

tenancy agreement</a>

You don't have to go to a letting agent. They will charge you a fortune for managing your property when you can do it yourself. The law in most tenancy agreements you can get on the web is up to scratch. Just make sure that it is drawn by an expert (barrister or solicitor) and that you don't buy a basic one that doesn't cover your situation. You should be able to get a really good one for £50 and its worth paying a little more to sleep easy at night.
Sorry, that was a poor link: look at http://www.netlawman.co.uk/residentialt
