 Testimonials

 Brian Evans, Isombridge, Shropshire

“Davies & Co. negotiated on our behalf a residential Option Agreement over our farmland at Crewe and subsequent representation to Cheshire East Council. At Isombridge farm, they helped us to secure planning permission for change of use of the farm building to residential.”

Simon and Rosemary Lowe – High Gables – Maulden, Bedfordshire

“When we were seeking planning permission for a retirement bungalow, the council refused our application. Davies & Co. advised us to appeal, prepared our case and appointed a Barrister and this resulted in permission being secured. They continue to advise us in relation our strategic development land and negotiating an Option Agreement.”

Brendon Marshall, Midshires Barn Campsite, East Leake, Leicestershire

We needed to secure planning permission for glamping and five-year temporary planning permission for an on-site residence. Davies & Co. guided us through the whole process and I was very impressed with their ability to engage with the council planning department.”
