Cirencester
Cirencester and the surrounding Cotswolds have a business base weighted towards property, land, hospitality and professional practice — where the tax planning matters as much as the compliance.
What we see locally.
Cirencester sits at the centre of a rural economy with an unusual amount of wealth attached to it. Farms and estates, holiday lets and hospitality, equestrian businesses, and a professional services base serving all of it.
The distinguishing feature is that personal and business tax are rarely separable. An owner with a trading company, a property portfolio and land is making one set of decisions, not three, and advising on any part in isolation tends to produce the wrong answer. Inheritance tax, business asset disposal relief and capital gains planning all come into it earlier than most people expect.
Holiday lets deserve a specific mention. The furnished holiday lettings regime was abolished from April 2025, which changed the tax treatment of a great many Cotswold properties — interest relief, pension contributions and capital gains treatment all moved. If nobody has revisited your position since, it is worth a conversation.

Common questions.
Do you work with businesses in Cirencester?
Yes. Cirencester is about half an hour from our Cheltenham office and we work with businesses across the south Cotswolds. Most of the work is done in Xero and on calls, and we meet in person when it helps.
How much does an accountant cost in Cirencester?
Our fees are fixed and monthly, agreed before we start. Business packages start from £100 a month plus VAT, and the price depends on turnover, transaction volume, payroll, VAT and how much reporting you want. The full breakdown is on our pricing page.
Do you advise on holiday lets since the furnished holiday lettings rules ended?
Yes. The furnished holiday lettings regime ended in April 2025, which changed the treatment of finance costs, pension contributions and capital gains on many Cotswold lets. If nobody has looked at your position since, it is worth a review.
