Hear from our Happy Customers

Oliver Thomas and his team at Orion Sales are outstanding. Great communication and truly honest advice, even when it may mean they lose a deal, which for me sets them way above most agents I have dealt with. A real pleasure to deal with. Highly recommended.
James A2025
My wife and I have recently purchased a lodge from Orion. Ollie has been amazing, so has the rest of the staff, really helpful and nothing was too much trouble. I would definitely recommend using them if you are interested in purchasing a property on the lakes.
Paul M2025
Purchased a property on the stunning Cotswolds Water Park in summer 2024, have previously rented one through Orion for a week. The lodge we bought was being sold through Orion and they were amazing from start to finish - arranged multiple viewings, answered questions promptly and chased things up along the way to resolve matters and unblock issues causing delays. Ollie & Mark were a joy to buy through and took away so much of the stress. Highly recommend renting or buying through Orion
Craig M2024
Worked with Orion during our recent purchase. Oli and Toni were outstanding. Both extremely helpful and always made themselves available for any queries we had. Made the process super smooth. Highly recommended!!
James T2024
I recently purchased a lodge on Windrush Lake through Orion. Ollie was most helpful and open. Following the move he has continued to be of assistance with all aspects involved in owning a property on Windrush. I certainly would use Orion in the future.
Piers T2024
Ollie and the Orion team provided a great service whilst we were purchasing a property from them on the Lower Mill Estate. They showed great knowledge of the local area and nothing was too much trouble. Charlotte was very efficient in pushing the sale through and all the girls in the office were very helpful. I would highly recommend Orion and would certainly use them if and when we come to sell the property.
