Your Trusted Real Estate Partner in Oxfordshire
Established in 1995 by Giles Robinson and Nick Sherston, we began as an independent property agency serving South Oxfordshire and the Chilterns. Over 25 years, we built a reputation for professional integrity and exceptional client service. In 2021, Matt Mannall, former head of Knight Frank's Henley-on-Thames office, assumed leadership, bringing over two decades of experience in high-profile property sales. Our approach combines personalized client service with innovative digital marketing, including professional photography, drone footage, and virtual tours. We prioritise direct client relationships, ensuring a single dedicated contact throughout the process.Unlike many agencies, we employ full-time professionals rather than part-time staff, guaranteeing knowledgeable and focused interactions. Our expertise now positions us as a leading agent for country homes across Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, and North Berkshire. We remain committed to delivering tailored solutions and achieving optimal outcomes for sellers and buyers alike. Our team takes pride in maintaining the trust established over three decades in the local property market. This dedication ensures we continue providing the professional, client-centric service our clients expect.

We purchased our house through Robinson Sherston. It was a difficult time to be buying and the solicitors involved didn't make things any easier, but Nick Sherston remained professional and reasonable throughout. Would highly recommend.

Report
Robinson and Sherston has two offices - in Watlington and Henley. They know the market very well, and have probably acted on the sale or purchase of most of the houses in Watlington at one time or another. They run an efficient service. Speaking both as a buyer and a seller through the agency over the years, I would say that the team are first rate. Not over pushy, they listen, they are efficient in organising visits and communicating and they judge prices realistically.
They obviously also use all the search engines / property websites such as zoopla and Rightmove, so the property gets excellent exposure. The best of the agents in the town, and the clear go to place if you are looking to buy or sell, and to have some in depth local knowledge of the advantages and disadvantages of a particular property. To be recommended.

From the minute we arrived, on time, to the moment we left our experience was awful. We were met by nick who is a partner.(we had to Google this) Didn't introduce himself, was in a rush to show us their dissapointing apartment. Showed no real knowledge of the apartment and after climbing 5 set of stairs, actually couldn't find the right set of keys to actually let us in. Finally we were in after several minutes, but by this time we had really had enough of this farce.
He had no product knowledge really. But it didn't end there. As we got back to the office he made his excuses and left us in the hands of the bored and disinterested secretary who also displayed zero knowledge or interest in us and we could not wait to get out. Awful.com
