An Old Stoic who is also second generation estate agent, it’s no wonder James’ obsession with historic village buildings and the challenges that surround selling them, has become well known county-wide. Just look at the testimonials. If it’s unique, peculiar or just plain hard to sell, James is the only agent you’ll ever need. Outside work, if it’s a car, boat or hi-fi, it’s probably to be found in pieces on his garage floor.

The time and effort she is prepared to put into the smallest of details has to be seen to be believed. This spills into improving her own house, training her dog, and probably also her husband.

Behind every great man – is an even greater woman. Harriet runs our accounts, marketing and database. Her level of intuition would probably have seen her burned as a witch in the Middle Ages... Other businesses can only wonder at how well she manages our finances. How she manages three teenage children, masses of animals and a husband as well, we don’t know.

Our sparky Australian, hosting viewings at all our properties. Lover of boxing and working dogs, and married to a Professor of history, she has a level of restless energy normally only seen in a toddler! Andrea’s enthusiasm and wit could resurrect the dead, winning her friends the world over. Our viewers love her.

Our “Kung Fu ‘manda” – the nickname perfectly describing her almost frightening determination to crack a problem. If you need a last-minute remover, grant of probate, mortgage company nagged, she’s your lady. Outside work, five crazy dependants (two boys, two mutts & purrrdy the cat) and running a rugby club make sleep a luxury. We have never asked how she fits it all in…
