GoogleI can’t thank Lucy enough for the outstanding service she provided. From the first conversation to completion, she was incredibly supportive, professional, and reliable. Lucy was always happy to help, kept me informed at every stage, and explained everything in a clear and reassuring way. Her friendly manner made a stressful process so much easier, and her knowledge and efficiency really stood out. She is truly excellent at her job and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an estate agent.

GoogleI would not recommend WellingtonWise Letting Agents based on my recent experience. Throughout the end of my tenancy, I was subjected to unnecessary pressure, poor communication, and what I believe was unprofessional behaviour from both Hermione and Robin.
Despite my willingness to communicate, offer a payment plan, and resolve rent arrears reasonably (including offering an upfront lump sum), my proposals were dismissed without genuine consideration. Instead, I was threatened with legal action and treated with hostility during a very difficult financial period.
What’s more concerning is that highly private and sensitive information about my financial situation and identity was shared and posted publicly online in a way that was distressing, humiliating, and potentially unlawful. If this was done by, or at the direction of, the landlord or agents involved, it would be a serious breach of professionalism and possibly privacy laws.
In over four years as a tenant, I never missed rent until the final months when my income changed unexpectedly. I always tried to be transparent and cooperative, but felt constantly blamed, ignored, and disrespected at the end.
If you’re looking for an agent that will treat tenants fairly and ethically, I would strongly advise you to proceed with caution.

GoogleLucy Rushton showed my wife and I around a property near Meldreth on 2 occasions.
Lucy was extremely personable and helpful during these viewings.
On both occasions we had questions that required further investigation.
Lucy true to her word found the information and passed it on to us.
Great service

GoogleWell what can I say about this agency? Don't recommend any landlord from using it. There is a house on market for ages and we just found it. Very interested in it and tried to contact the agency to book a viewing. If the house is as pictures showed, we plan to take it. However, the process of booking a viewing has been immensely frustrating. I was asked to fill an email enquiry and of course no one replied. I called again, and got told that I will be contacted in due time...No wonder the property has been on the market for so long without any luck - the agency's attitude drives potential customers away.

GoogleTerrible agency. Twice in a row that we requested to view the place within half a day but no reply. Later tried to reach out again, only got told that the place was already fully booked for viewing/ someone wished to buy the place.
Terrible service. Everytime called to enquire but refused to give information, got told email only, then after a few days tried to call again and they said the place was already gone.

Dear Annabel,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience you experienced with our agency, and I truly regret the frustration caused by our service during your recent property inquiry.
We understand how important timely communication is, especially when viewing a property. It is disappointing to hear that we were unable to respond promptly and provide the information you needed. We have a policy of responding to every single enquiry and as things stand we receive on average over 40 enquiries per property that we list which makes it very difficult to offer everybody the opportunity for a viewing.
Please know that your feedback is taken seriously, and we are already reviewing our processes to ensure quicker and more effective communication with our clients in the future. We aim to provide all our clients with excellent service.
If there is anything we can do to assist you further, or if you are interested in any other properties, please do not hesitate to reach out directly to me at aston@wellingtonwise.co.uk. I would be happy to assist you to ensure that your next experience with us is a positive one.
Once again, we deeply regret the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
Best regards,
Aston Robinson

GoogleDealt with the lovely Jess, she was a pleasure to meet and nothing but helpful and supportive throughout our experience. She showed us round some properties and whilst they weren't quite for us, she didn't question offering help and knowledge about great areas, and even properties elsewhere on the market. She made us feel like we, and our oponions mattered, going above and beyond to help.
We started a purchase elsewhere after a recommendation from her, and when that didn't work out, we didn't hesitate coming straight back to Jess.
We found another property in a different area but would 100% recommend Jess for your property needs and will keep her on speed dial for the future.
Thank you for everything Jess.

GoogleUnfortunately, I have had an extremely poor experience with the letting agency from the beginning of my tenancy and have since left my tenancy early due to the ongoing issues with both the property and management by The Letting Agency.
Upon moving in there were several maintenance issues (including a non-working kitchen sink tap) left for extended periods of time (the tap took 1 week to fix so I had no kitchen sink or water that whole time, the smaller issues such as cupboard doors missing, lino and uneven flooring, broken tiles took 2 + months to sort out - These were all highlighted by myself in the week I moved in). I had to chase in excess of 8 times over 2 months, and given dates and times that no one showed up for.
The staff in the office (bar the Director who I had to contact in the end) have been rude, unhelpful and flippant with any concern. With no access to our energy meters, I had to chase every single month to get my readings, was given the wrong readings on more than one occasion, and refused to send a photo of the meter for mind's ease as it would 'take too long'. More concerningly, Contractors have entered my flat without notice (and without me even being aware they were given keys to do so?) and our communal front door had the lock removed & left over night on a public street, with no contact or notice to what was going on. I have never received an apology for any of the above issues.
I was eventually allowed to leave my tenancy 2 months early due to the above issues, but even with 2 months notice from myself that I wished to leave, I was only told with 2 weeks notice that they had found someone - Which was only due to me seeing the post had been removed from Rightmove so I enquired whether someone had agreed to the let. Likewise, I left a week early paid up as requested, and was still charged in excess of £400 for minor wear & tear issues (including genuinely being sent images of dust in a cupboard that I had 0 access to).
Overall, an extremely poor and unsafe environment to live in, with staff that will likely respond to this with a patronising and irreverent tone as per any comms I had with them whilst living there. It appears that they are more than happy to manage the rent payments through them, but less so to actually manage the properties.

GoogleWorst people I had to deal with, honestly! I don't know how they're still in business. They don't even listen to what you tell them on the phone, their standard reply for everything is to fill their online form, so they can get back to you with a questionnaire, so you can fill in the questionnaire, so they can arrange a viewing. I tried to do this for a month, calling them every other day because I was not receiving their damn questionnaire (they refused to let me answer the questions over the phone), then they booked the viewing of the wrong property and forgot to cancel even after I told them over the phone that I was never interested to view that property. After a month of this hell, they finally told me the property was not suitable for pets (which was NOT on the ad). They're a joke!

We appreciate you taking the time to express your views on our service. However, your concerns relate to our Lettings department, and you have left your review on our Royston Sales page. We have investigated this and spoken with our team and I understand that you have enquired about two different properties with us, one that accepted pets and one that didn’t, I think this is perhaps where the confusion lies. We deal with over 1500 enquiries every month and pride ourselves on our levels of communication with each and every applicant. As I’m sure you are aware the interest from applicants in this current lettings climate is extremely high and we often receive in excess of 50 requests for viewings for one property which means that we often can’t offer viewings for everyone and ultimately people will be disappointed but we do everything we can to communicate this and manage everyone’s expectations. We wish you all the best in your search.

GoogleThis is the second time we have sold our house with WellingtonWise. Great, honest and hardworking team who will all know what's happening with your sale no matter who picks up the phone. They gave us good advice throughout the whole process and ultimately got our house marketed and sold in quick time. Would highly recommend.

GoogleAfter a whole year of trying two other agents to sell my house, WellingtonWise sold my house in a matter of weeks! Lucy in particular was proactive in approaching me and marketing the house. She was considerate, honest and communicative and clearly did an excellent job in showing the house to the buyers. WellingtonWise have an impressive knowledge of the local housing market. Their drone photographs of my house helped greatly in showcasing the location and views surrounding the property. Highly recommended.

GoogleExcellent, reliable, with deep experience of the local housing market. Their early prediction of the price we should get was spot on. They have a great instinct for how the selling process is going and forewarned us when the news was inconsistent. They were very supportive whilst those issues were dealt with and brought to a positive conclusion. I would recommend them to anyone selling a property in this area.
