Cottage Fields wins award at the 22nd annual ESTAS Awards, the most prestigious awards in the UK property sector

Our North London–based agency, Cottage Fields, was honoured at the Regional Property Awards London, receiving a Gold Award for Sales and two Silver Awards for the Lettings in the Tenant and Landlord categories.

Cottage Fields also won Best in Postcode award in the EN2 area of Enfield at the prestigious ESTAS Customer Service Awards 2025. The winners were announced by the country’s favourite TV property presenter Phil Spencer in London in front of 1,100 of the UK’s top property professionals. 

The awards are powered by The ESTAS own customer review platform which recognises the best sales estate and letting agents for customer service based on service ratings from homemovers who have been through the whole moving experience with an agent. This year’s results were calculated from over 300,000 customer review ratings.

Phil Spencer, who has hosted The ESTAS every year since their inception in 2003 addressed the live audience “As someone who’s had the privilege of hosting these Awards for over two decades, I’ve seen first-hand how The ESTAS can truly transform not just businesses—but lives. What makes these awards so special is simple: they’re based entirely on customer feedback. Real voices. Real experiences. That’s why they carry so much weight. These aren’t just trophies, they’re symbols of trust.”

Chris, Director of Cottage Fields said “We are absolutely thrilled to be recognised in this year’s ESTAS. It means so much to us as we know it’s our customers who have judged our performance.  We take our levels of customer service very seriously because we know clients have a choice.  We have always been very proud of the personal service and this proves we are delivering what we promise.” 

Simon Brown, Founder of The ESTAS said “In a world increasingly obsessed with artificial intelligence and algorithms, it’s easy to forget that the property industry is, and always will be, a people business. Technology may help us streamline processes, crunch data, and even predict the market, but it can’t replace empathy, trust, or the human touch that defines our profession which is what The ESTAS Awards are all about.”

At Cottage Fields, we are incredibly proud to have been recognised by the prestigious ESTAS Awards, an accolade that celebrates the very best in customer service across the property sector. Being named Best in Region and Postcode is not just a reflection of our team’s dedication and expertise, it is a testament to the trust, support, and loyalty of our clients and customers who have allowed us to guide them through some of the most important moments of their lives. Every home sale, every letting, and every interaction is built on understanding, care, and a commitment to delivering excellence, and this award reminds us that our efforts truly make a difference.

We could not have achieved this without the wonderful community we serve, and we are more motivated than ever to continue on this journey, consistently striving to provide service that is personal, professional, and genuinely outstanding. The ESTAS Awards are based entirely on customer feedback, and to know that our clients’ voices have recognised our work is both humbling and inspiring. As we look to the future, Cottage Fields remains committed to setting the highest standards in property sales and lettings, ensuring every experience we deliver is one that earns the trust and satisfaction of those who choose to work with us.

If you’re looking to buy, sell, or let a home in the North London area, we’d love to show you why our customers have placed their trust in us, get in touch today and experience the award-winning service that Cottage Fields is so proud to provide.
