The village has a friendly community, a village hall and a unique parish church with an "Arts and Crafts" decorated interior and the first electric clock in England to have a striking mechanism. There are excellent state & independent schools in the area including several local primary schools, Ansford, Crispins, Wells Blue School, Wells Cathedral School, Millfield, Hazelgrove and the Bruton and Sherborne schools.

Places of interest

    About Us Roderick Thomas is an entirely independent firm with decades of experience selling and letting residential property. The firm has offices in Wells, Somerton and Castle Cary and covers a wide geographical area. The focus is to deliver a high level of service to clients to achieve the best sale or rental possible within a set timescale. The importance of widespread advertising and effective marketing is recognised and with each property, an individual campaign is planned. Having attracted buyers the next stage is negotiation and the firm prides itself on securing an agreement on the best terms and then progressing the sale to completion.  Ongoing discussion with all parties including solicitors ensures an agreed timetable is maintained and hitches are anticipated when possible and addressed with action taken if necessary. Focusing fully on sales and letting and not being burdened with “head office” costs Roderick Thomas is able to offer highly competitive commission rates on all agency terms. These include: Sales SOLE SELLING RIGHTS – one agent is instructed to sell a property and a commission is paid to the agent on completion of the sale. JOINT AGENCY – two (occasionally more) agents are instructed.  They work in conjunction and share the commission on completion.  The rate is usually higher than the sole agency. MULTI-AGENCY – two (or occasionally more) agents are instructed.  They work in competition and only the agent who sells receives a commission on completion.  Again this is usually at a higher rate than sole agency (but not always). All prospective sellers are invited to contact Roderick Thomas to discuss the sale of any property. Lettings We offer landlords a full residential lettings service covering every aspect of the market. This includes finding tenants and agreeing terms and this can be extended to include rent collection and full management if required. Each case is assessed individually to suit a client's needs.
