Great, friendly service from everyone at the saleroom. They stored my purchase safely for me and then, when I arrived to collect and found it was much larger than I thought (due to frame), helped me pack it and let me leave it with them for the afternoon whilst I visited the local gallery. All this when they were obviously incredibly busy. Thank you!

I cannot praise Strides too highly, their excellent service was way above expectations which helped to make easier what was for us a difficult sale. A pleasure to do business with, something not often said about estate agents! Thank you Nick, Tom and Gillian especially.

Strides dealt with the sale of my late mother's house and despite various difficulties - including a sale which fell through at the last minute - they were absolutely brilliant. Friendly, supportive and positive during the difficulties (which were no fault of Strides), reliable and wholly professional - I am so grateful to them for being there and for everything they did to facilitate what turned out to be a protracted sale. Thank you!
