We’ve dug into the archives and asked our team to share a photo of themselves from their younger years. Can you match the childhood faces to our team members?

At some point, we've all cringed (or laughed!) at an old photo of ourselves - from questionable haircuts to fashion choices that didn’t quite stand the test of time. So, we thought it was time for a bit of fun! We’ve dug into the archives and asked our team to share a photo of themselves from their younger years.

Can you match the childhood faces to our team members?

Read on, make your guesses, and get to know the people behind the professional faces just a little better..

January Market Comment

January has seen us firmly up and running across the Cotswolds. Activity has been encouraging, with positive levels of interest and a busy start to the year. We have already agreed a good number of sales across our three offices in a range of different price points, which is a positive indicator of buyer intent following what was a very cautious 2025, with low confidence and many delays.

Three Quintessential Cotswold Cottages – Full of Character & Charm

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, there’s something undeniably romantic about the idea of escaping to a cosy Cotswold cottage. Think honey-coloured stone walls, crackling log fires and soft lamplight spilling across plush sofas - perfect for long conversations, shared glasses of wine and slow, unhurried mornings. In winter, the Cotswolds reveal a quieter kind of beauty, with misty lanes, frosted fields and snug village pubs just a gentle stroll away. It’s a setting steeped in charm and warmth, and utterly quintessential in its British appeal.
