We recently sold our family home on the Tiddington Road with the fantastic team at Knight Frank. Special thanks to Samantha, Giselle, and Jo for all their proactive support. I really appreciated their dedication — it seems you truly need a great team of people on top of things to make a house sale happen these days! Highly recommend their expertise.

Rachel Crawford

I recently had the pleasure of working with Frank Knight while purchasing my new home, and I cannot recommend them highly enough! From our very first viewing, they demonstrated exceptional knowledge of the local market. Sam Bysouth took the time to understand our must-haves and when we found it, guided us through the buying process. Sam was always available to answer my questions, no matter how small, and provided valuable insights. What truly stood out was her dedication to ensuring a smooth transaction. Sam coordinated with all parties involved, kept me updated on progress, and was proactive in addressing any issues that arose. Thanks to Sam, the experience was stress-free. If you're looking for a knowledgeable and supportive estate agent, look no further!

Adam Dougal

I recently purchased a property that was listed with Knight Frank. The offer process was handled by William Ward-Jones, we were kept updated frequently until a response from the seller was received and it was handled incredibly fairly. After our offer was accepted we were assigned a sales progressor, Giselle Holman who kept us informed of the sellers buying status and ensured the process was moving ahead at an acceptable rate. I wouldn't hesitate to purchase a property again through them in the future!

Louise Leighton

Samantha has been brilliant throughout the sale process. She is friendly yet professional and understands the importance of frequent communication. I cannot recommend her highly enough.
