After years of PAYE i need to SA due to letting one of my properties. what is the view: get an accountant to do it the first time for me or plug through it myself?

If it's just one property, and you are on top of all the costs etc you can offset, and there's nothing complicated, I'd say do it yourself.

An accountant isn't necessary - but might be helpful.

Just make sure that you know and understand what types of expenditure can be legally offset against your rental income.
