Reviews for Simpkins Edwards

Don't just take our word for it - these testimonials from our happy clients speak for themselves.

"Julie Rose was very good in helping me through the process of selling the farm and the tax implications, and what the best options were for me. All the girls in the Bovey Tracey office are very courteous & helpful and nothing is ever too much trouble. Simpkins Edwards is a good company and easily accessible through phone and email. The location of the office is also very useful in the fact that you can park right outside." Mrs J W Soper –  August 2021

"Simpkins Edwards have been acting for us since they took over from Adam’s & Co in 2014, and since then Julie Rose has been absolutely brilliant, she gets our business and understands where we are coming from.

Mark Simic was also very helpful in helping us convert from a Limited company to sole ownership. Simpkins Edwards are very easy to deal with and make the accountancy side easy to understand." Claire Sherlock – August 2021

"I’ve been using the services of Simpkins Edwards since July 2019 when I started my company. Since then we have progressed to over a £1m turnover, which we could not have achieved without SE. David Williams and Hannah Rookes, amongst other great team members, have been simply outstanding. I knew nothing of business and accounting when I started, no question has been too much trouble and their responsiveness to my queries and need for advice has been first class. I have recommended people to SE and will continue to do so. I believe they provide top quality advice and service at very decent rates. Thank you to everyone who has helped us so far." Alan Baldwin Services Limited, March 2021

"I received an introductory course in QuickBooks from Bickie Thompson in order to help me manage the transition to Making Tax Digital. I’m a bit of a luddite as far as administration goes and was dreading having to handle VAT and self assessment taxes digitally, but found the process, as explained by Bickie, clear and logical. She was also able to help with my first digital VAT return over the phone. I’m now looking forward to not having to face an avalanche of paper every time I open my books!" November 2019

"Since joining Simpkins Edwards we feel more confident and enthusiastic to expand our business. We really value Julie Rose for her advice and input. She has always been helpful, prompt and efficient in dealing with our business.

We can’t speak highly enough of the professional and personal service that we have received since joining Simpkins Edwards, and would absolutely recommend them to our friends and family." Tina and James Baskerville, Lammacott Farm, July 2019

"Mark Simic has been looking after our Dental Practice Accounts (and personal accounts) for the past 3 years. I could not recommend him and his team more highly. Good guys and nice to deal with. We have real time insight into the performance of our business thanks to the systems he put in place, and the quarterly reviews with Mark are extremely helpful – getting us to focus on simple things/areas that can be improved to boost our top/bottom lines. Seeing your performance in black and white each month takes away the uncertainty – and allows us to make good decisions continuously. Highly recommend." Andrew Brundan, March 2019

"I have been working with Mark Simic at Simpkins Edwards since early 2018 and I cannot recommend their services enough. Mark and his team have been brilliant since day one. They look after my personal accounts, which has been a huge help – but they also helped open a Limited Company for my new business, it is on this side of things that I have been really impressed with everything they offer, as I wouldn’t have been able to grow the business without their help and support. I work closely with Sonia Cleave and Sam Johnson on a weekly basis as they raise our invoices and keep a close eye on everything on the accounting side, so I don’t have to. Their ongoing support, on all aspects is a really vital component for our growth plans. I really enjoy working with the team at Simpkins Edwards and trust them implicitly and have total confidence in everything they do. Thank you to Mark, Sonia, Sam and the rest of the team for all your expertise so far and I look forward to your continued support for many years to come. I would highly recommend engaging with Simpkins Edwards, I’m confident that you’ll be impressed with the variety of services offered." Adam Turner, March 2019

"March 2018, I began my own business of a pop-up restaurant alongside my full-time job. Whilst not the most complicated tax case James Welton gave me the impression that the needs of my business meant as much to him as some of the larger clients he may take care of. I have been using the services of James and Simpkins Edwards for over 6 months now, the advice is tailored to my business needs and not a generic format one size fits all approach. I anticipate the application of Simpkins Edwards expertise will help my business grow, as efficient account management will allow me to reinvest in infrastructure and equipment." Daniel Tugwell, Nomad Dining, March 2019

"Simpkins Edwards, more specifically James Welton, has been managing my personal accounts for the past four years, and the service I have received has been excellent. My tax returns and investment portfolio includes property rentals and overseas shares, all of which requires depth of knowledge and ability to tackle complex UK and international tax implications. James has consistently been incredibly diligent and responsive to my tax requirements, providing solid professional service. James and his staff have always been very professional, polite and efficient. I would recommend Simpkins Edwards to anyone who is looking for a highly professional, friendly and reliable accountant." Kerris Lockwood – February 2019

"I have been a client of Simpkins Edwards for over 10 years during which time the firm has provided me with consistent and invaluable support during the period I practiced as a sole trading PR Consultant and through to incorporation of the business. This has included my annual accounts, personal and corporation tax, VAT returns and training for my own accounts package. Between the strategic advice provided by partner Mary Jane Campbell and the hands-on practicality and financial hand-holding from the meticulous Rebekah Randall, Simpkins Edwards has always given me the confidence to act in the knowledge that support will be there when I need it. They have looked after me without being intrusive, made suggestions where they thought I could benefit and, by keeping ahead of the game and ensuring that I understand my finances and tax situation far in advance, they have never sprung any nasty surprises on me. I’d certainly recommend them." Mr Devons, February 2019

"Mann Management Solutions LTD is in its 3rd year working with Simpkins Edwards. What has impressed Carole and myself has been the friendliness and helpfulness, as well as the clarity and expertise that we have benefited having our client relationship with Simpkins Edwards. Our account manager, James Welton, demonstrates informed proficiency of the current legal position for the ever-changing legal climate for business such as ours. His experienced advice and recommendations have helped steer our business in a successful direction. We heartedly recommend Simpkins Edwards to others, so they too can benefit in the development of their businesses." Michael Mann, Mann Management Solutions Limited, February 2019

"Really pleased to have transferred to QuickBooks and with Timothy’s help and advice it all went very smoothly. Any learning problems I had with QuickBooks, Timothy soon pointed me in right direction. Thanks for all the help and advice." March 2018

"Simpkins Edwards have been preparing our annual accounts since 1992 following a recommendation. Their services have always been very helpful and they are extremely easy to get hold of. They give us great accounting advice as well as preparing our accounts." Ag-Bag Systems, March 2018

"I have been working with Simpkins Edwards for 5 years following a recommendation from a friend. Not only do they offer brilliant services but are also very good at giving advice on an array of financial subjects. My previous accountants would simply look at the books and do the their minimum. Simpkins Edwards are always willing to go the extra mile and help in as many ways as they can which makes all the difference." Mr C Hudd, March 2018

"From a loss-making dairy farm to an industrial estate and large container storage side Julie Rose has guided me through the maze of financial hurdles that I have encountered on the journey. She has always been there on the end of a telephone, by email or by site visits as required to provide appropriate advice. In particular by regularly visiting my premises she is fully aware of the peculiarities of the property which ensures that the advice she is giving is not just of a general nature but relevant to my circumstances. The taxation advice that Julie has given throughout this rather rapid development has been invaluable and always pertinent to my situation. I have no reservation in heartily recommending Julie to other potential clients." Mr A J White, Mid Cornwall Self Storage, January 2018
