Samuel James Events Ltd have been using NR Barton for a number of years, in which they take care of all our accounting, taxation and payroll, as well as advising us on a range of other issues. Their knowledge and expertise in dealing with hospitality and leisure sector was a key reason for our appointing of them. Paul, Matt and all the team are a pleasure to work with, always there when we need them and very hands-on. We would thoroughly recommend them, without question.

Whenever I call and for whatever reason my problems are always sorted promptly, Stephanie is always pleasant and helpful and I trust her 100% in all our financial affairs, I would also like to mention Nona who sorts the PAYE out every month and is always spot on with the wages.
I could not think of a negative thing to say about NR Barton. Thank you for all your efforts.

We have used NR Barton to look after our business accounts and annual audits for many years. During our time as a client we have always received very professional service and advice from David Shirley and more recently Paul Farrington.
Sharon Boardman has always been our regular point of contact and her willingness to help and attention to detail is always immaculate. We enjoy the business relationship and friendship and long may it continue.

I worked with Paul Murphy last year on my tax return and can honestly say that he was so incredibly helpful and always so professional and reliable. He was always more than happy to pick up the phone if I ever needed to speak with him urgently and was always able to respond to my emails very quickly.
I would highly recommend NR Barton especially Paul Murphy to anyone as they offer such a great service and are always so friendly and very trustworthy.

We have used NR Barton for advice and in completion of tax returns for a rental property. We have always liaised with Adrian and the service has always been exemplary. The process has been explained to us clearly and the whole process is undertaken quickly and effectively, often on-line, for our convenience. We have had everything explained at every step of the way and the additional advice we have received has been invaluable from pensions to child benefit. Can’t recommend highly enough!
