Whitlocks
Founded by Russell Whitlock in 1982 and he remains a consultant. The firm is now owned by Nigel Bedford and specialises in both the sale and letting of residential property throughout West Cornwall.
Having experienced estate agency within a corporate network, both in the Home Counties and Cornwall, our management has a strong belief in the ability of the small independent estate agency to offer the exceptional quality of service that property owners rightly demand, from experienced and professional staff - a level of service which is essential to ensure success in the current uncertain market conditions. Much of our business is based on referred recommendation and we look forward to you putting us to the test.

After specialising in country house sales in the south-east of England he moved back down to Cornwall in 1996 and was based in Truro, before taking over Whitlocks.
