With over 30 years of experience and recognition in the Spear’s 500, Eddell & Co are the original country house consultants. We navigate the complexities of high-profile estate ownership, from strategic land use to staffing and project assembly for the UK's most exacting private clients.
Navigating the Life Cycle of the Great British Estate
We are independent property consultants who understand that owning a high-profile country house is about more than just the bricks and mortar. It’s about managing a legacy. We advise individuals and family offices on how to navigate every stage of property ownership, anticipating challenges before they arise and ensuring your assets are managed with precision.
We are at our best when dealing with complex, exacting requirements. Having been involved in many of the highest-profile transactions of the last two decades, we bring a level of discretion and strategic insight that is second to none.
Led by Industry Authorities
Our team brings a level of expertise rarely found in boutique consultancies. When you hire us, you are hiring decades of top-tier institutional experience delivered through a personal, independent lens:
- Philip Eddell FRICS: With over 30 years in the sector, Philip has been recognised by the Spear’s 500 as one of the UK’s leading property consultants for five consecutive years. He previously established the Country House Consultancy departments at both Knight Frank and Savills.
- Claire Glover MRICS: A former Partner at Knight Frank and Head of Farm Sales, Claire has 16 years of experience managing and selling some of the most prestigious rural estates in the country.
Strategic Estate Management for a New Era
Whether your goals are traditional or forward-thinking, we provide the roadmap. As rural-practice chartered surveyors, we balance the competing demands of landscape, amenity, and agriculture. We are experts in:
- Modern Land Use: Navigating the shift toward regenerative agriculture, re-wilding, and net-zero strategies.
- Project Assembly: We ensure the right design and project teams are in place from day one, protecting you from the emotional and financial costs of a poorly structured build.
- Operational Efficiency: We benchmark operating costs for estates with annual spends ranging from £100k to £2m, ensuring you receive true value for money.
