Written by the company
Ocean Estate Agents have been selling Bristol and North Somerset homes of all shapes and sizes – large and small, grand ¬and modest, smart and not so smart… for all kinds of people since 1984. Founder Paul Harris started the business over 40 years ago with Ocean Bishopston on Gloucester Road, and there are now 12 local offices across the city including one in Portishead and Weston super Mare. Their ethos is very much ‘people before property’, with the emphasis on looking after the individuals and families buying or selling their homes, to make what is often a challenging experience, as worry-free as possible. Ocean’s teams, reflect the culturally rich communities of this wonderful city, spanning a diverse mix of ages and backgrounds from across Bristol. It is also very much a family business. Many of the team have grown up and started their own families whilst working for Ocean – they even have some second generation ‘Oceaners’ now working for the company.

We had a positive experience with Ocean. From the house offer to completion, the whole team was very responsive and helpful.
Also, a very positive experience with Luigi for our first-time buyer mortgage. Explained very well and a straightforward process. Recommended!
Excellent Service
Thank you so much for all your help throughout our remortgage journey. As always, the team at Oceans went above and beyond to support us and made the entire process smooth and stress-free.
A special thank you to Richard Jarrred and Claire Ford for helping us secure an even better remortgage deal than we expected. We really appreciate your professionalism, dedication, and excellent communication throughout.
We are delighted with the service we received and would happily give Oceans a well-deserved 5-star rating. Highly recommended!
Great Service Again!

Ocean were good but we stipulated a few times that we wanted all pots and rubbish removed from the property we were purchasing. However everything was left for us to get rid of (another expense). Surely this should be checked out
Really responsive and helpful
Really responsive and helpful. Always tried their best to get me answers both on the house purchase and the process which was useful as a first time buyer navigating everything for the first time.
Brilliant Team
We started to sell March 2025,
Although sold. For personal reasons, had to withdraw the house from sale.
Ocean. So understanding.
Placed on the market again this March. Chris and the two Mellisa’s were brilliant.
Kept us informed of what was going on and were sympathetic to our needs during client visits.
Well done.👍
Thank you all at Westbury on Trym

Team Ocean
Both Laura and Simon (and the wider team) were fantastic at Ocean from start to finish when buying my property. They were attentive and communicated throughout. Would highly recommend!
Excellent service and communications…
Excellent service and communications from Ocean throughout. From the initial listing and marketing, through the management of viewings, and the lengthy exchange/completion process that is unavoidable with all house sales, we were kept up to date with no issues. Ocean, and Debbie in particular, were helpful, attentive and lovely to deal with. Recommended.
Great experience from start to finish
Great experience from start to finish. Staff helpful and attending, took all the stress out of the selling process
Review up to SSTC Southville
Review up to SSTC-
We needed a quick sale on our house to secure our dream home. Claire has been brilliant at rapidly turning around getting our house on the market viewings and offer within 2 weeks. Photos and marketing looked brill. The online portal to manage the advert, viewings and offers were great. Claire provided viewing feedback within 15 mins and was very available on phone and email to help us whenever needed.
Would highly recommend Ocean Southville and Claire in particular
Claire has been amazing from Start to…
Claire has been amazing from Start to Finish. The Portal made the whole process really transparent and we had constant communication with the EA and Vendors which was really helpful during the process. Highly recommend!
Incredibly supportive and efficient
Incredibly supportive throughout both the sale and purchase of our properties. Very efficient, quick to update and great communication during what was a difficult situation. Exceptional service.
Great team at Ocean Estate Agents
Great team at Ocean Estate Agents. They frequently updated us on the progression of the sale. Highly recommend this team. Both the sales team and the solicitors were very professional !
Luigi: Best Mortgage Advisor in Town
Luigi was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. We went in with very little understanding of how house purchases and mortgages work, and he was able to talk us through step by step what all the jargon meant, what the real world implications were for different types of property or mortgage, and was very patient with all of our many questions! Luigi was with us every step of the way and always quick to respond to any queries or concerns we had. I've been recommending Luigi to ebvery single person I meet who is thinkign about buying a home!
Open, straightforward and responsive - Claire Kington was so easy to deal with!
We chose Claire Kington at Ocean to handle the sale of our much-loved family home before a move back to Australia. We instantly felt she was no-nonsense, open and direct and we really valued feeling like we could ask her anything about the process and she'd be totally transparent with us. She picked the market perfectly and the asking price created a huge amount of interest in the property. We ended up with eight (!!) offers on our home, and accepted a great offer within two weeks, and felt like she really helped us to put our best foot forward. Thank you, Claire!!!
The whole conveyancing team at Ocean…
The whole conveyancing team at Ocean were very efficient and I would definitely recommend them. A big thank you to both Gemma and Alex who were very professional throughout the whole process and answered all my questions promptly and were great at keeping me up to date at each stage of the sale. Gemma went above and beyond with her attention to detail and was always very helpful whenever I had a query. Positive experience and an easier process keeping everything within the same company.
