Ascott Blake remove a lot of hassle and worry from being self employed. Their speed of service and willingness to go above and beyond is incredible. They don't just see you as a business to process they treat you like a person who they value. Can't recommend them enough. They enable me to get on with what I'm good at while they take care of what they are good at.

Have been with Ascott Blake for over a year now and have always dealt with things very quickly and professionally. Lucy runs my account and is always on the ball!

I would highly recommend anyone that is looking for an accountant to get in touch with Ascott Blake! I have personally dealt with Adam and Emily for a few years now, their service is amazing and they are always on the end of the phone/email if i need any help or advice!

Adam and his team at Ascott Blake have helped the smooth running of our kitchen showroom business enormously since we opened nearly 3 years ago. They are always quick to respond to any worries or queries we may have and they are extremely friendly and efficient. They take care of everything on the accounting side which means we can get on with running our business efficiently.Liane & Rob @ Kemphaus Kitchens

I would happily recommend working with Ascott Blake to anyone. The whole team are great, took the time to understand my business needs and have always acted with great professionalism and provided advice that I can trust. Long may the great relationship continue.

Highly recommend Ascott Blake. Adam and his team were and continue to be a massive help to our business. My wife and I started up a new Event Decor business back in 2018 and they were on hand to answer all the naive questions we had in a friendly, un-judgemental manor. If you are looking for a new accountant, don’t look any further! Sam & Lucy @ WeDo Wedding Event Supplies.

The whole Ascott Blake team are absolutely fantastic, when I went self employed I didn't know where to start and had information and advice coming out of my ears. Adam and Emily took me through everything and helped me make sense of it all, now I'm all digital and streamlined and loving it! The support you receive here is just brilliant, and they have an awesome sense of humour too!!!

Alice M.

I moved over to Ascott Blake just over a year ago now, and it was one of the best business decisions I have ever made. They are professional yet with a personal touch, you're not just another number to them! Great Team!!

Highly recommend Ascott Blake. Adam and his team are all amazing, they completely took the stress out of the transition from a sole trader to a limited company with 4 employees. I'd never recommend anyone else. 5 stars.
