Symonds & Sampson Reviews 

The friendly, helpful team from the Brewery Square, Dorchester branch assisted us throughout our property purchase.

Shambles of a letting department with poor attitude failing to get it right and aggressive and confrontational when things go wrong don't let your property with these clowns .

Peter and the team at Symonds and Sampson, Poundbury could not have been more helpful and supportive. Peter did everything possible in the latter stages to ensure that the sale went through successfully for which we are very grateful. Many thanks to all at Symonds and Sampson

The Sherbourne office were wonderful in helping us to secure our new home. The team were extremely professional and helpful and kept us up to date throughout the whole process we would highly recommend Symonds & Sampson.

Have had great communication and compassion from the staff I’ve been dealing with.
Quick decisions and quick turnaround.
Would recommend or use these fantastic people again for further moves in the future.

We’ve recently started the process of renting out our property with Symonds and Sampson, and so far it has been an absolute breeze! Even from overseas, communication has been easy and responsive, despite the time difference. The team has been professional, friendly, and very attentive, keeping me updated at every step and making sure everything runs smoothly. They’ve made the whole process straightforward and stress-free, which is such a relief when managing things from afar. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, supportive, and efficient property management!

What can I say, symonds and Sampsons went above and beyond helping me and my son find a home. The lettings team in Yeovil were just amazing. From start to finish, they helped me all the way. I have always felt welcomed in both the Sherborne office and yeovil office. Thank you Trudi, Karen and Gemma

BEWARE of this agent.
Where do we begin - the rental agent failed to declare our expensive new house didn’t have functioning heating system she was very obtuse and stroppy, really unsuitable girl for a customer facing role. Shocked to find she was the manager and not surprised to hear not a popular agent in the area.
Nor does it surprise me that they don’t recall who there previous customers are.

I cannot recommend Symonds and Sampson enough. Jeremy and the team at the Yeovil office have been nothing short of excellent from the initial meeting to the selling of our home in an incredibly short space of time. They are professional, punctual and deliver a high standard of customer service.

The Ilminster team were excellent from start to finish. Their valuation survey was thorough and my needs were respected and discussed honestly. The sales team were efficient and the brochure was extremely professional and included personal touches that I had mentioned. The house sold quickly and the negotiation team kept in touch throughout, doing their best to keep the sale moving forward. I have bought and sold several houses and Symonds and Sampson were by far the best estate agents I have dealt with. Thank you!

I would like to thank the amazing team at Symonds and Sampson Ilminster especially Julie, Georgie and Jonathan all were professional, experienced & knowledgeable in helping me find the right buyer for a unique and complex property. From the initial appraisal, photographs, brochure, viewings with feedback, offers and finally sold. All went through smoothly with a better than expected sale date.
They even helped me source a local plumber to repair a leaky shower. I can't praise and recommend the Ilminster team enough.

Peter G-S was excellent and provided a personal service to get my property sold in a challenging market . The attention to detail and his professional but relaxed style is very effective and welcome . Selling a property is stressful enough and Peter’s approach is highly recommended .

We had the Pleasure of having Matt from Symonds and Sampson in Beaminster deal with our Sale. He was fantastic from start to finish, totally professional, took everything in his stride and dealt with any issues along the way. Apart from all of that his best attribute by far, was he kept us updated at every point. Not once did we have to chase him to find out progress! Fantastic!

Peter and his team were excellent throughout both the sales of our late mother's rental properties. Thoroughly professional, pragmatic and perserved despite protracted sales.
Would definitely recommend to those looking for an agent with local knowledge of the market and the skills to get the job done properly.

Symonds and Sampson are excellent, we worked with Daniel Magee in the Bridport office as well as Tara and Isobella - all were excellent - friendly, professional and efficient. They found a great buyer for our house and then progressed the move, helping at every step.
I can't recommend them highly enough.

An agent came to value my property and after a long and off topic conversation, I wasn't given a price, not even an idea. Instead, the focus was on what I had paid for the place, and what wasn't quite right with it. The visit was a waste of time, and I can only assume that S&S are doing so well, that they do not need to worry

Great estate agent to deal with, very helpful made a stressful process go
with ease. Would use again, staff were
friendly and quick to respond to issues.

I visited several properties being marketed via auctions by Symonds and Sampson over the past 4 months or so, finally being successful in a purchase via their auction in late October 2025.

All the staff I met, liaised with over the telephone and spoke with during the period between auction hammer coming down and sale completion occurring were unfailingly courteous, helpful and knowledgeable about a process (purchase via auction) which many people are pretty unfamiliar with.

Arranging a visit with my architect was seamless with S&S respecting the needs of both buyer and seller in how they managed gaining access to the property.

I hope to continue a relationship with the members of the firm.

Jeremy, Vicky, Cheryl and the team are experienced and supportive. They are well informed about current market trends, provide a friendly service and excellent communications throughout the process. Highly recommended.

Lorna Wyatt has been managing my two rental properties (one commercial, one residential) for many years. I could not ask for a more professional, competent, conscientious, hard-working and proactive manager. She is highly intelligent with a gift for solving problems and her excellent people skills, sense of fairness and integrity mean that she commands the respect of everyone she deals with. She is also a thoroughly lovely person!
