GoogleHawkesford has been managing my property for close to 15 years and have taken a big load off my shoulders. They are always professional but have the extra "human touch". What makes Hawkesford special is the staff, they are very approachable and helpful and always respond in a timely and thoughtful manner. My contact at Hawkesford is Natasha Smith and she has provided me outstanding service over the years. Thanks so much Natasha for always being my great support with regards to my property.

GoogleMiriam has been Awesome! We have had a tricky tennant and discussing legal action with solicitors has meant needing the team to send on multiple pieces of information. Huge thank you for being so helpful - and patient! X

GoogleGreat experience from start to finish. Kitti was fantastic! She arranged my viewing quickly, showed me around the property and answered all my questions. Elizabeth was also incredibly helpful with the tenancy agreement and made the whole process smooth and straightforward. I’m really happy with the service and my new home!

GoogleGreat service from both our contacts at Malcolm Hawkesford - initially with Rory who we knew was going to be our man on our very first meeting! We liked his friendly, open and honest style, and this continued throughout the sales process. His communication was brilliant - don’t think we ever waited more than an hour for a reply on anything, even at the weekend or when he was on annual leave. And Kimberly’s service was phenomenal. If you need someone to get things done, or solve a problem, she rises to every challenge with humour and vigour. The reason we were able to complete within twelve weeks was down to her, as she is Action Woman!! We would definitely recommend both Rory and Kimberly to anyone buying or selling a property.

GoogleCan't recommend Hawkesford highly enough! Rory and Kimberly in the sales team went above and beyond to help me sell my flat. They spent far more time than it was worth to them, finding a buyer then keeping on top of progress across everyone involved. Communication was completely transparent, clear and frequent. Any updates, I knew them immediately and could help unblock.
I bought my flat with Rory about 13 years ago and had a great experience then, selling has been just as good, despite a challenging sale process. No hidden agendas with these guys, just honesty and great support. THANK YOU!!

GoogleHola!
As first-time buyers, the whole process of looking for a home can feel quite overwhelming, but our experience with Darren Beckett has been genuinely excellent so far. Darren personally has been a great sales estate agent, professional, approachable, and very easy to talk to. From the beginning, he made us feel comfortable and at ease, which really helped take the pressure off such an important step.
What stood out the most was how quickly everything moved. Whenever we viewed a property and asked if there were any other similar homes available, Darren would often arrange another viewing within a day. That level of responsiveness made a huge difference for us and showed how committed he is to helping us find the right place.
We also really appreciate the fact that they are a private, local estate agency. The service feels much more personal, and we never feel like just another number. The whole experience so far has been smooth, efficient, and very pleasant.
We haven’t actually bought a house yet as we’ve only just started our search, but the experience so far has been very positive. We’re definitely looking forward to Darren showing us more properties in the coming weeks, and if the process continues like this, we wouldn’t hesitate to work with Darren Beckett again in the future or recommend them to others.
Gracias
Maria

GoogleI’ve many mutual connections with Darren, spoken with him and admired his online work for some time and have no doubt from that catalogue of evidence that he’s an exceptional estate agent and others isolated experiences of one moment in time should be discarded. No one is perfect. But as close to it you’ll struggle to find over Darren.

GoogleWhile Darren was very personable in person, he was rude in messages once an offer was made. I appreciate that my property offer was low and not accepted but the response felt very condescending and rude. As a young woman, I felt this was aimed more at my age and gender though of course with limited interaction, I cannot confirm this as fact. He didn't introduce himself at the viewing and appeared to dismiss me initially until it was made clear I was the buyer. As he owns his company, I was left with no resource to complain as to his behaviour except to leave a public review, which is not my preference but felt necessary. I would provide screenshots of the conversation except I do not wish to expose what could be sensitive price information of his previous sales. Frankly, the whole thing is just weird, confrontational, and uncomfortable.
Edit:
Just for clarification sake, Darren, the comparable houses we discussed were on the same street. The comparable you presented was a year and half old, while the ones I were discussing were from this year and were themselves larger properties and 20% less than the current asking price.
I warned you we might be late by 5 minutes and we were in fact 5 minutes early. You also approached our vehicle while we were still in it without introducing yourself. Regardless, your tone was unprofessional and rude in messages, which is not disproved by your response. I am sorry we have had a poor experience with each other but I do wish you and your clients well going forward.

Agent replied · 8 July 2026
Hi Bethany, thanks for your review. I prefer to stick with the facts and not make assumptions.
Texting me to offer my client an extremely lowest offer which was just 68% of the asking price was both offensive and rude to my client. Their words not mine. Apologies if you didn’t think I introduced myself. You sent me a text to say that you would be late and I waited for you outside beside the large for sale sign with my face and name on it.
You presented me with comparables for streets that have different pricing and I’m sorry if you felt I was being condescending by giving you direct comparables of homes we had actually sold in the same street.
Perhaps not offending the sellers by making insulting offers may have led you to a different outcome.
I gave you lots of time, advice and was polite (as always) at my viewings, with the owner being present and also being happy with our conduct.
We wish you all the best with your property search.
