Celebrating Excellence in Estate Agency and Lettings in Barnstaple
We’re thrilled to share that Collyers Estate Agents has won both the Estate Agent and Letting Agent Gold Awards for Barnstaple at this year’s British Property Awards — following our Lettings Gold Award win last year.
As an independent local agency, we couldn’t be prouder of this achievement — or of the dedicated team behind it.
🌟 A True Measure of Service – Not Size
The British Property Awards were created to help customers find the very best estate and letting agents in their local area — not just the biggest names or flashiest brands.
Their judging process is one of the most comprehensive in the industry, involving:
-
In-depth mystery shopping across hundreds of agents nationwide
-
Analysis of data such as sales success rates, time to sell, and fall-through percentages
-
A detailed review of each agent’s online presence, photography, descriptions, and marketing
-
A final shortlist and further mystery shop before deciding the winner
This means the award isn’t about who shouts the loudest — it’s about consistent, high-quality service, communication, and results.
You can read more about the awards and the judging process on the British Property Awards website.
🏡 Beating Bigger Competition with Local Heart
As a small, independent team in North Devon, it’s incredibly rewarding to know that the quality of our work has been recognised at a national level.
We’re up against some of the UK’s biggest estate agency brands — with larger offices, bigger budgets, and nationwide reach — but our focus has always been simple:
exceptional service, honest advice, and local expertise.
To win both awards this year shows that approach works.
“As a company director, I couldn’t be prouder of our team.
Their hard work, professionalism, and care for our clients shine through in everything they do — day in and day out.
To keep such high standards and beat bigger, more established competition is a real achievement.”
— James Collyer, Director
🔑 Looking Ahead – Keeping Our Standards High
While we’re delighted to celebrate this success, we’re not stopping here. Our aim for 2026 is to continue raising the bar for estate agency and lettings across North Devon — with even more focus on customer service, marketing innovation, and local expertise.
If you’re thinking of selling or letting in Barnstaple, Bideford, Braunton, South Molton, Ilfracombe or Torrington, we’d love to show you why our award-winning approach really works.
