Which survey suits Chipping Campden
ABOUT THIS AREA
Chipping Campden grew wealthy on medieval wool trading, and that prosperity is reflected directly in the Grade I listed Church of St James — an exceptionally grand “wool church” for a town this size, funded by wealthy benefactors including silk merchant Sir Baptist Hicks. Grevel’s House, home to William Grevel, “the flower of the wool merchants of all England,” still stands on the High Street, dating to around 1380.
The town later became home to the Guild of Handicraft, an Arts and Crafts movement community, adding a further layer to its architectural and cultural significance.

We had a great experience with cotswolds surveyor for our level 2 home survey. They took the time to advise us before we contracted with them, recommending we get a structural engineer to check the house before our survey due to the specific concerns we had, even if that could have meant we did not need to use their services in the end. They were also very responsive and helpful throughout the process.Posted on GoogleHelenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
I found this firm very easy to deal with and they were able to arrange a survey quite promptly. Charles the surveyor gave me a call after his inspection to talk everything through, which was much better than just receiving a written report. The report followed shortly which was very comprehensive with photos and explanations included. I would highly recommend this company.Posted on GoogleFrancesco SticchiTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
The service provided was excellent and thorough. It allowed us to avoid a very troublesome acquisition of a first house. We were impressed by the level of details provided in the survey and, in particular, by the kind and precise heads up via phone call received right after the survey was completed. We could not recommend this service more for its careful and thoughtful attention to the client.Posted on GoogleSteveTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
I recently used Cotswold Surveyors for my flat purchase. Guy was thorough and knowledgable and provided a verbal report before the written one came through. I would certainly recommend them.
